Figure 1 Functional and Genetic Heterogeneity of Primary AML A founding AML clone arises with accumulation of a set of acquired “signature” mutations. During tumor progression, the founding clone evolves into genetically distinct subclones through the acquisition of new mutations. The complete spectrum of mutations defines morphological and phenotypic properties of the subclones that correlate with distinct functional characteristics, such as in vitro growth, engraftment in immune-deficient mice, or relapse in patients.
