Retroviral insertional mutagenesis identifies the del(5q) genes, CXXC5, TIFAB and ETF1, as well as the Wnt pathway, as potential targets in del(5q) myeloid neoplasms

Abstract excerpt

An interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 5, del(5q), is a recurring abnormality in myeloid disorders, including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) comprising therapy-related MDS and AML (t-MDS/t-AML). 1 In t-MN, a del(5q) occurs in approximately 40% of patients and is associated with prior therapy with alkylating...
