Hyperglycemia cooperates with Tet2 heterozygosity to induce leukemia driven by proinflammatory cytokine–induced lncRNA Morrbid
22 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for cancer. The role of DM-induced hyperglycemic (HG) stress in blood cancer is poorly understood. Epidemiologic studies show that individuals with DM are more likely to have a higher rate of mutations in genes found in pre-leukemic hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (pre-LHSPCs) including TET2. TET2-mutant pre-LHSPCs require additional hits to evolve into full-blown...
