CEBPA encodes the transcription factor C/EBPalpha and is specifically up-regulated during granulocytic differentiation. The gene is mutated in approximately 20% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) FAB type M2 and occurs in the absence of the t(8;21). In much the same way as specific transl

## Abstract The __AML1__ gene encodes a transcription factor that, together with its heterodimeric partner CBFB, regulates a number of target genes that are essential for normal hemopoiesis. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), __AML1__ is disrupted not only by chromosomal translocations but also by mu
One hundred and twenty-five cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were reviewed for the presence of Auer rods by two peroxidase methods. The percentage of Auer rods recognized by Wright-Giemsa (WG) staining was 20.8% but three times higher by peroxidase staining techniques using either benzidine bas
We present a case of acute myelomonoblastic leukemia with marrow eosinophilia (M4Eo) having inv( 16) developed after etoposide administration for chronic type adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). A 74-year-old Japanese woman was admitted in April 1993 because of a fungal infection on the chest skin that occ
Acute monocytic leukemia (M5) is a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with two distinct morphologic subcategories, M5a and M5b. We compared the immunophenotype, cytogenetics and clinical outcome of AML M5 with non-M5 AML and also compared M5a with M5b. One hundred and twelve M5 (76 M5a, 36 M5b)
