1 Among these alterations, an important role is played by two mutant enzymes of the citric acid cycle, isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), IDH1 and IDH2, occurring in about 20% of AMLs, which leads to the production of an oncogenic metabolite R-2-hydroxy-glutarate (R-2-HG); this causes a DNA hypermethylation and an inhibition of hematopoietic stem cell differentiation.
