Regulation and Targeting of Eg5, a Mitotic Motor Protein in Blast Crisis CML: Overcoming Imatinib Resistance
12 Sept 2006
Abstract excerpt
Patients with blast crisis (BC) CML frequently become resistant to Imatinib, a Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase-targeting agent. Eg5, a microtubule-associated motor protein has been described to be highly expressed in BC CML by microarray analysis (Nowicki et al., Oncogene 2003; 22:3952-63). We investigated the regulation of Eg5 by Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase and its potential as a therapeutic target in BC CML. Eg5 was highly...
