Correcting miR-15a/16 genetic defect in New Zealand Black mouse model of CLL enhances drug sensitivity
1 Sept 2009
Abstract excerpt
Alterations in the human 13q14 genomic region containing microRNAs mir-15a and mir-16-1 are present in most human chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We have previously found the development of CLL in the New Zealand Black murine model to be associated with a point mutation in the primary mir-15a/16-1 region, which correlated with a decrease in mature miR-16 and miR-15a levels. In this study, addition of...
