Protocol to establish a stable MLL-AF9_AML mouse model.

ABSTRACT: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is one of the most common and fatal forms of hematopoietic malignancies. Here, we describe a mouse MLL-AF9_AML model to investigate AML. We have optimized the protocols for retrovirus infection, bone marrow transplantation (BMT), and leukemia monitoring to create a stable mouse model. In particular, we have used two rounds of BMT to enhance stability and efficiency. This model can be used to conduct drug administration and/or other interventions easily. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Zhao et al. (2022).
