REVIEW
A concise review on the molecular genetics of acute myeloid leukemia.
Leukemia Research 2021 December
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common acute leukemia in adults that affects the myeloid lineage. The recent advances have upgraded our understanding of the cytogenetic abnormalities and molecular mutations associated with AML that further aids in prognostication and risk stratification of the disease. Based on the highly heterogeneous nature of the disease and cytogenetic profile, AML patients can be stratified into favourable, intermediate and adverse-risk groups. The recurrent genetic alterations provide novel insights into the pathogenesis, clinical characteristics and also into the overall survival of the patients. In this review we are discussing about the cytogenetics of AML and the recurrent gene alterations such us NPM1, FLT3, CEBPA, TET-2, c-KIT, DNMT3A, IDH, RUNX1, AXSL1, WT1, Ras gene mutations etc. These gene mutations serve as important prognostic markers as well as potential therapeutic targets. AML patients respond to induction chemotherapy initially and subsequently achieve complete remission (CR), eventually most of them get relapsed.
