Abstract excerpt
Gain-of-function kinase mutations are common in AML and usually portend an inferior prognosis. We reported a novel mechanism whereby kinase mutants induced intracellular alkalization characteristic in oncogenesis. Thirteen kinases were found to activate sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE1) in normal hematopoietic progenitors, of which FLT3-ITD, KRASG12D, and BTK phosphorylated NHE1 maintained alkaline intracellular...
