BCR/ABL Directly Inhibits Expression of SHIP, an SH2-Containing Polyinositol-5-Phosphatase Involved in the Regulation of Hematopoiesis
1 Nov 1999
Abstract excerpt
The BCR/ABL oncogene causes chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by clonal expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells and granulocyte lineage cells. The SH2-containing inositol-5-phosphatase SHIP is a 145-kDa protein which has been shown to regulate hematopoiesis in mice. Targeted disruption of the murine SHIP gene results in a myeloproliferative syndrome characterized...
