Increased C-kit intensity is a poor prognostic factor for progression-free and overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed AML.

abstract：:We have analysed the configuration of immunoassociated genes and the karyotypes of 30 patients with acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) and 10 with chronic myelocytic leukemia in blast crisis (CML-BC). In AML, the frequencies of T-cell receptor (TcR) beta, gamma, and delta chain and immunoglobulin heavy and light chain ge...
