IRF4 deficiency vulnerates B cell progeny for leukemogenesis via somatically acquired <i>Jak3</i> mutations conferring IL-7 hypersensitivity
2022-02-18
Abstract excerpt
The processes leading from disturbed B cell development to adult B cell progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) are poorly understood. Here, we describe Irf4 −/− mice as prone to developing BCP-ALL with age. Irf4 −/− preB-I cells exhibited impaired differentiation but enhanced proliferation in response to IL-7, along with reduced retention in the IL-7 providing bone marrow niche due to decreased CXCL...
