Clinical value of CD25/CD123 co-expression in acute myeloid leukemia patients.

Background: This study aimed to assess the significance of combined expression of interleukin-2 receptor (CD25) and the interleukin-3 receptor (CD123) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients.

Methods: The expression of CD25 and CD123 on blast cells in bone marrow samples were identified by flowcytometry in 94 patients (⩽ 60 years old) with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated at the Mansoura University Oncology Center (MUOC).

Results: Of the 94 samples at diagnosis there were 17 (18.
