Acute Myeloid Leukemia Regulatory Networks Identified

Adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a type of cancer in which the bone marrow makes abnormal myeloblasts (a type of white blood cell), red blood cells, or platelets. AML is a heterogeneous disease caused by a variety of alterations in transcription factors, epigenetic regulators and signaling molecules. More...
