Deskripsi

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) affects people of all ages. Here, the authors model AML in vivo and demonstrate that the age of the cell of origin impacts leukaemia development and the genetic signature where adult cells of origin give rise exclusively to AML and young cells of origin give rise to myeloid, lymphoid or mixed phenotype acute leukaemia.
