Correlation Analysis of DNA Methylation Level and Clinical Characteristics in JMML Patients

Objective: As a rare, aggressive pediatric myeloproliferative disease, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) encompassed both biological features of myelodysplastic syndrome and myeloproliferative neoplasm. Studies have shown that the methylation level in JMML patients is closely related to prognosis, and patients with high methylation level have poor prognosis. This study aimed to find clinical indicators that were associated with different methylation levels and prognosis.
