Abstract: Recent studies show that some long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) is specifically expressed in leukemia with mixed lineage leukemia (MLL)rearranged, BCRABL, promyelocytic leukemiaretinoic acid receptor α (PMLRARα), and acute myeloid leukemia 1 (AML1)ETO fusion gene, which is closely related to the occurrence, development and prognosis of leukemia. Specifically expressed lncRNA may provide new strategies for the diagnosis and treatment, which may provide a guidance for clinical prognosis of leukemia.

Key words: Leukemia, Karyotype, Long noncoding RNA
