Single cell RNA sequencing improves the next generation of approaches to AML treatment: challenges and perspectives by Zahra Khosroabadi, Samaneh Azaryar, Hassan Dianat-Moghadam, Zohreh Amoozgar, Mohammadreza Sharifi

“…Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is caused by altered maturation and differentiation of myeloid blasts, as well as transcriptional/epigenetic alterations, all leading to excessive proliferation of malignant blood cells in the bone marrow. Tumor heterogeneity due to the acquisition of new somatic alterations leads to a high rate of resistance to current therapies or reduces the efficacy of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), thus increasing the risk of relapse and mortality. …”
