Abstract
The article discusses the study on myeloid progenitors with PTPN11 gene and nonRAS pathway gene mutations for treatment with 6-mercaptopurine in juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia, a fatal mixed myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic disorder. The study involves seven cases of patients with chromosomal changes after chemotherapy or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. It notes that the study first examines the presence of JAK3 and SETBP1 gene mutations in 29 patients.
