AML1-ETO rapidly induces acute myeloblastic leukemia in cooperation with the Wilms tumor gene, WT1
27 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
AML1-ETO, a chimeric gene frequently detected in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), inhibits the differentiation of myeloid progenitors by suppressing genes associated with myeloid differentiation and increases the replating ability of clonogenic myeloid progenitors. However, AML1-ETO alone cannot induce AML and thus additional genetic events are required for the onset of AML. The Wilms tumor gene (WT1), which has...
