METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR DIAGNOSING AML AND MDS

摘要

Methods, systems and equipment for diagnosing or monitoring the progression or treatment of AML or MDS. This invention identifies a plurality of AML or MDS disease genes which are differentially expressed in bone marrow cells of AML or MDS patients as compared to disease-free humans. These AML or MDS disease genes can be used as molecular markers for detecting the presence or absence of AML or MDS. These genes can also be used for the early identification of MDS patients who eventually progress to AML.
