Abstract
SummaryEsperanza‐Cebollada E., et al. found a group of 24 microRNAs, to be differentially expressed between two groups of paediatric acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cases with distinct outcomes. The main target of this microRNA signature is SOCS2, a gene that controls stemness. The results of this study may open doors for further investigation of the role for microRNAs in poor prognostic paediatric AML.Commentary on: Esperanza‐Cebollada et al.
