As shown in Figure 3E, CCND3, cyclin D3 that forms complex with CDK6 and promotes cell cycle progression was hypomethylated and overexpressed in other 11q23 MLL, t(9;11) and some normal cytogenetics AML and conversely was hypermethylated and under-expressed in t(8;21). This evidence concerns the gene CCND3 and acute myeloid leukemia.
