Abstract
Tumor cell of origin is an important prognostic measure but is challenging to assess. We recently demonstrated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that the chromatin landscape serves as a biomarker of transformed cell of origin. Thus, open chromatin loci offer important prognostic information as well as targets for development of novel therapies in cancer treatment.Entities:
