ERG and acute myeloid leukemia: The mRNA expression of IL2RA were found to significantly associate with expression of four other prognostic genes including ID1 (p = 0.006, Spearman R = 0.335, FLT3 (p = 0.007, Spearman R = 0.329), ERG (p = 0.030, Spearman R = 0.267) and CDKN1B (p = 0.033, Spearman R = 0.263) (Fig. 3) in patients with intermediate-risk AML.
