ETV6-RUNX1 promotes survival of early B lineage progenitor cells via a dysregulated erythropoietin receptor
8 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
ETV6-RUNX1 gene fusion is usually an early, prenatal event in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Transformation results in the generation of a persistent (> 14 years) preleukemic clone, which postnatally converts to ALL after the acquisition of necessary secondary genetic alterations. Many cancer cells show some expression of the erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) gene, although the "functionality" of any...
