By using single-cell multi-OMICS approaches, the researchers could distinguish between leukemic stem cells and healthy hematopoietic stem cells obtained from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. This approach enables the identification of cancer-specific gene expression programs and the characterization of differentiation blocks induced by leukemic mutations.
