Abstract excerpt
Differentiation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells is under strict control of a regulatory network orchestrated by lineage-specific transcription factors. A block in normal differentiation is a major contributing factor in the development of solid tumors and leukemias. Cells from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) frequently harbor mutated or dysregulated transcription factor genes, suggesting...
