Abstract:
Specific fusion genes of leukemia are currently the main biomakers for minimal residual disease (MRD)monitoring. Recent studys have found that the WT1, PRAME, ERG genes may be the potential acute leukemia related molecules, and can be used to monitor acute myeloid leukemia's MRD, directing clinical stratified therapy and estimating prognosis. This article reviews the pathogenesis, incidence of these genes and the relationship to the clinical prognosis.
