Targeting Epigenetic Programs in MLL-Rearranged Leukemias
7 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
Rearrangements of the Mixed-Lineage Leukemia (MLL) gene are found in > 70% of infant leukemia, ~ 10% of adult acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and many cases of secondary acute leukemias. The presence of an MLL rearrangement generally confers a poor prognosis. There are more than 60 known fusion partners of MLL having some correlation with disease phenotype and prognosis. The most common fusion proteins induce...
