Overexpression of LEF1 predicts unfavorable outcome in adult patients with B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia
19 Oct 2011
Abstract excerpt
Aberrant activation of the Wnt pathway plays a pathogenetic role in various tumors and has been associated with adverse outcome in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). LEF1, a key mediator of Wnt signaling, has been linked to leukemic transformation, and recurrent mutations of LEF1 have been identified in pediatric T-ALL. Here we evaluated the prognostic significance of LEF1 expression in B-precursor ALL patients....
