Acknowledgements
We thank all clinicians for sending AML samples to our laboratory for diagnostic purposes and for providing clinical information and follow-up data. In addition, the authors thank all co-workers at the MLL—Munich Leukemia Laboratory for approaching together many aspects in the field of leukemia diagnostics and research. Especially the technical assistance of Annika Eßer who performed FISH analyses is greatly appreciated.
