Abstract excerpt
JAK2 V617F mutant, a gene responsible for human myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), causes not only cellular transformation but also resistance to various anti-cancer drugs. We previously reported that pyrrolidinium fullerene markedly induced the apoptosis of JAK2 V617F mutant-induced transformed cells through the reduction of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), following inhibition of the c-Jun...
