The identified 24 genes were ALS2CR8, ANGEL1, ARL6IP5, BSPRY, BTBD3, C1RL, CPT1A, DAPK1, ETFB, FGFR1, HEATR6, LAPTM4B, MAP7, NDFIP1, PBX3, PLA2G4A, PLOD3, PTP4A3, SLC25A12, SLC2A5, TMEM159, TRIM44, TRPS1, and VAV3, the increased expression levels of which were significantly associated with worse (22 genes) or favorable (two genes: FGFR1 and PLOD3) OS of AML. The gene discussed is CARF; the disease is acute myeloid leukemia.
