This dataset includes analyses of the Ki-67 positive fraction (Ki-67 proliferation index) and Bcl-2 positive fraction (Bcl-2 anti-apoptotic index) of the different myeloid bone marrow (BM) cell populations in non-malignant BM, and in BM disorders, i.e. myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, MKI67 is linked to myelodysplastic syndrome.
