Title |
A gene expression profile associated with relapse of cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia is enriched for leukemia stem cell genes |
Organism |
Homo sapiens |
Experiment type |
Expression profiling by array
|
Summary |
Relapse, associated with therapy resistance, is a major clinical problem in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), yet little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms. Using genome wide gene expression profiling on 11 paired samples from diagnosis and relapse, we show that the expression of a substantial number of genes was altered in a highly consistent manner between these disease stages. Furthermore, the relapse associated gene expression profile was significantly enriched for leukemia stem cell (LSC) genes, indicating that recurring AML is characterized by increased stemness, and supporting the concept that it is due to the outgrowth of chemotherapy resistant LSCs.

Overall design |
Paired peripheral blood samples from the times of diagnosis and relapse were obtained from 11 patients with cytogenetically normal AML. cRNA was hybridized to Affymetrix human ST1.1 arrays.
