Although other studies have reported similar expression pattern of WT1 isoforms within leukemic blasts, the isoform expression ratios in AML blasts were shown to be disproportional to the ratios observed in healthy CD34+ hematopoietic progenitors isolated from mobilized clonogenic cells in peripheral blood [16,17] or umbilical cord blood cells [18]. The gene discussed is CD34; the disease is acute myeloid leukemia.
