hematopoiesis Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and several hematological
malignancies arise from acquisition of multiple stepwise genetic and
epigenetic changes in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.
Understanding the regulatory pathways that are deregulated in
hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells is important to better
understand the development of leukemia and to design novel therapeutic
strategies for the treatment of leukemia. With that broad focus in\...
