Abstract excerpt
The class III receptor tyrosine kinase FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) regulates normal hematopoiesis and immunological functions. Nonetheless, constitutively active mutant FLT3 (FLT3-ITD) causally contributes to transformation and is associated with poor prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) can counteract deregulated gene expression profiles and decrease...
