Abstract excerpt
Acute myeloid leukemia with mutations in TP53 (TP53mut AML) is fatal with a median survival of 6 months. RNA sequencing on purified AML patient samples showed that TP53mut AML had higher expression of mevalonate pathway genes. Using novel, isogenic TP53mut AML cell lines and primary samples, we determined that TP53mut AML resistance to AML chemotherapy cytarabine (AraC) correlated with increased mevalonate...
