Open AccessFunctional characterization of BRCC3 mutations in acute myeloid leukemia with t(8;21)(q22;q22.1)
BRCA1/BRCA2-containing complex 3 (BRCC3) is a Lysine 63-specific deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) involved in inflammasome activity, interferon signaling, and DNA damage repair. Recurrent mutations in BRCC3 have bee...

Open AccessClonal evolution patterns in acute myeloid leukemia with NPM1 mutation
Mutations in the nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) gene are considered founder mutations in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To characterize the genetic composition of NPM1 mutated (NPM1mut) AML, we assess ...

Monitoring of Residual Disease in Patients with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia Using Specific Fluorescent Hybridization Probes for Real-Time Quantitative RT-PCR
In many ways, chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) serves as a paradigm for the utility of molecular methods to diagnose malignancy or to monitor patient response to therapy [1]. CML constitutes a clinical model...
