Transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells from alternate donors in acute myelogenous leukemia.

abstract：:The major cause of early death in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), the high risk of a bleeding diathesis is now successfully counteracted within a few days by differentiation therapy using ATRA. Moreover, no resistance to this drug has been recorded during induction when the usual presence of PML/RAR alpha was conf...
