Clonal selection and therapy resistance in acute leukemias: Mathematical modelling explains different proliferation patterns at diagnosis and relapse [PDF]
J. R. Soc Interface 11(94):20140079, 2014, 2013 Recent experimental evidence suggests that acute myeloid leukemias may originate from multiple clones of malignant cells. Nevertheless it is not known how the observed clones may differ with respect to cell properties such as proliferation and self-renewal. There are scarcely any data on how these cell properties change due to chemotherapy and relapse.
