Proteasome Inhibition Causes Regression of Leukemia and Abrogates BCR-ABL–Induced Evasion of Apoptosis in Part through Regulation of Forkhead Tumor Suppressors

Abstract excerpt

BCR-ABL plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and some cases of acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). Although ABL kinase inhibitors have shown great promise in the treatment of CML, the persistence of residual disease and the occurrence of resistance have prompted investigations into the molecular effectors of BCR-ABL. Here, we show that BCR-ABL stimulates the...
