Gene mutation spectrum of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome and progression to acute myeloid leukemia.
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the regularity of gene mutations in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and in those that progressed to acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML).
Patients & methods: High-throughput sequencing technology was used to detect gene mutations in 99 newly diagnosed patients with MDS or MDS/AML.
Results: Gene mutations were detected in 88 patients. The mutation incidence in the MDS/AML group was significantly higher than that in the MDS group. Statistically significant differences were observed between the MDS with refractory anemia (MDS-RA) and MDS-RA with excess blasts groups and between the MDS/AML and MDS-RA groups.
Conclusion: Our data demonstrate that there is a cumulative accumulation of gene mutations, especially in transcription factor genes, during disease progression in MDS and MDS/AML.
