Cell Characteristics
M0
Myeloblastic 9- 12% Leukemia cells are extremely immature and do not have characteristics of the cell they were supposed to become.
M1
AML with minimal maturation 16- 26% Immature myeloid cells (or myeloblasts/ "blasts") are the main type of cell in the marrow sample. AML with maturation
M2
20-29%
Samples contain a lot of myeloblasts, but show more maturity than M1 subtype. Myeloblast is the last stage of development before the immature cell commits to becoming a white or red blood cell, or platelet
M3
Leukemia cells are still immature, between the myeloblast and myelocyte stage. Very underdeveloped, but starting to look and act more like a white cell.
M4
Leukemic cells are a mix of granulocytic and monocytic cell types The leukemia cells are looking more like white blood cells than the previous stage, but still very immature.
M5
More than 80% of the cells are monocytes. May be 9- 26% at different stages of maturity.
M6
1-4%
Leukemic cells are immature cells with characteristics of red blood cells.
M7
