Abstract excerpt
MicroRNA-125b-1 (miR-125b-1) is a target of the chromosomal translocations t(11;14)(q24;q32) and t(2;11)(p21;q23), which are found in human B-lymphoid and myeloid malignancies, respectively. These translocations result in overexpression of mature miR-125b, consisting of 22 nucleotides. To analyze the role of miR-125b-1 in leukemogenesis, we created a bone marrow transplantation model using a retrovirus vector...
