In general, acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive and heterogeneous disease that is characterized by rapid cellular proliferation and high mortality. One of the mutations related to AML is the Flt3-ITD mutation, which is found in approximately 25% of patients. In this mini-review, we investigate the function of dendritic cells and T cells based on Flt3-ITD mutation and immune evasion as a result of this abnormality. Finally, we discuss some AML therapeutic strategies, including targeting Flt3 on DCs and TIM-3 on T cells as immune receptors to treat this hematopoietic malignancy.
