TL;DR: A generic approach to cancer classification based on gene expression monitoring by DNA microarrays is described and applied to human acute leukemias as a test case and suggests a general strategy for discovering and predicting cancer classes for other types of cancer, independent of previous biological knowledge.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A new, bead-based flow cytometric miRNA expression profiling method is used to present a systematic expression analysis of 217 mammalian miRNAs from 334 samples, including multiple human cancers, and finds the miRNA profiles are surprisingly informative, reflecting the developmental lineage and differentiation state of the tumours.

TL;DR: It is found that a complex interplay of genetic events contributes to AML pathogenesis in individual patients and the databases from this study are widely available to serve as a foundation for further investigations of AMl pathogenesis, classification, and risk stratification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classification, subtype discovery, and prediction of outcome in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia by gene expression profiling.

TL;DR: Oligonucleotide microarrays used to analyze the pattern of genes expressed in leukemic blasts from 360 pediatric ALL patients identified each of the prognostically important leukemia subtypes, and within some genetic subgroups, expression profiles identified those patients that would eventually fail therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
AML1, the Target of Multiple Chromosomal Translocations in Human Leukemia, Is Essential for Normal Fetal Liver Hematopoiesis
TL;DR: The results suggest that AML1-regulated target genes are essential for definitive hematopoiesis of all lineages, and that this defect was intrinsic to the stem cells in that AMl1-/-ES cells failed to contribute to hematocerosis in chimeric animals.
