<unk>  is a sub-type of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. In<unk> , there is an abnormal accumulation of immature granulocytes called promyelocytes. A diagnosis is made when there are greater than 20% blasts, or immature cancerous cells, in the bone marrow. The disease is characterized by a chromosomal translocation involving the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARα or RARA) gene and is unique from other forms of acute myeloid leukemia in its responsiveness to all trans retinoic acid (ATRA) therapy.
