In recent years, an increasing research of the expression of EVI1 in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), especially in pediatric ALL. The overexpression of EVI1 gene also suggest a poor prognosis, which is closely relate to the age. But the relationship between the expression of EVI1 gene and mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) and BCRABL gene rearrangement needs to be further studied. Researching the expression of EVI1 gene in ALL and exploring targeted therapeutic agents are important research directions in the future.
