IRF-4 functions as a tumor suppressor in early B-cell development
20 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
Interferon regulatory factor-4 (IRF-4) is a hematopoietic cell-restricted transcription factor important for hematopoietic development and immune response regulation. It was also originally identified as the product of a proto-oncogene involved in chromosomal translocations in multiple myeloma. In contrast to its oncogenic function in late stages of B lymphopoiesis, expression of IRF-4 is down-regulated in...
