MEF2C Phosphorylation Is Required for Chemotherapy Resistance in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
8 Feb 2018
Abstract excerpt
Abstract In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chemotherapy resistance remains prevalent and poorly understood. Using functional proteomics of patient AML specimens, we identified MEF2C S222 phosphorylation as a specific marker of primary chemoresistance. We found that Mef2cS222A/S222A knock-in mutant mice engineered to block MEF2C phosphorylation exhibited normal hematopoiesis, but were resistant to leukemogenesis...
