    Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by the clonal expansion of immature myeloid cells and has a poor prognosis due to frequent relapses.

  • 2

    Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models are valuable for studying AML, as they replicate the disease's genetic and biological heterogeneity.

  • 3

    The study expanded a collection of serially transplantable PDX models representing AML subgroups that lack established cell lines.

  • 4

    These PDX models facilitate pre-clinical investigations and address fundamental questions in leukemia pathology.

  • 5

    The models are accessible to the research community, with information available through CancerModels.org.
