A Pre-Leukemic DNA Methylation Signature in Healthy Individuals at Higher Risk for Developing Myeloid Malignancy
CONCLUSIONS: The epigenetic changes may be acquired independently and prior to somatic mutations that relevant for AML/MDS development. The association between methylation changes and the risk of pre-AML/MDS in these individuals was considerably stronger than somatic mutations, suggesting that methylation changes could be used as biomarkers for pre- AML/MDS screening.PMID:38437679 | DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-22-3804
