Deskripsi

Not all mutated cells become malignant, suggesting additional requirements for transformation. Here, the authors track blood progenitors from normal to malignancy driven by MLL-AF9, revealing a subset of myeloid progenitors predisposed to transformation dependent on their normal cycling state.
