Prognostic relevance of Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) gene Exon 7 mutations in-patient with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia.

This study aimed to assess the prognostic influences of Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) gene mutations in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) among Egyptian patients. Exon 7 of WT1 was screened for mutations in samples from 82 CN-AML patients out of 203 newly diagnosed AML patients, using a high-resolution capillary electrophoresis. Seven out of 82 AML patients (8.

Wilms tumor 1 gene mutations in patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the prognostic impact of Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) mutations in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) among Egyptian patients.

Materials And Methods: Exons 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, and 9 of WT1 were screened for mutations in samples from 82 CN-AML patients out of 203 newly diagnosed AML patients, of age ranging from 21 to 74 years, using high-resolution capillary electrophoresis.

Results: Eleven patients out of 82 (13.
