Gene Expression Profile And Modulation Of Genetic Pathways In Acute Myeloid Leukaemia T(8;21)

Many in vivo and in vitro models have been widely used in experimental research in order to facilitate pathway analysis, gene targeting and further scientific discoveries. Cell lines, such as Kasumi-1 and SKNO-1, have been used to study the AML1/MTG8 mechanisms in acute myeloid leukaemia t(8;2...
