Abstract:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)-associated fusion proteins (AAFP), such as PML/RAR, PLZF/RAR or AML1/ETO have leukemogenic potential in vivo which is related to their capacity to induce a differentiation block and aberrant self renewal in early hematopoietic progenitors. The potential of the AAFP to induce the leukemic phenotype is strictly related to their capacity to oligomerize and to form high molecular weight complexes (HMW). Furthermore we recently showed that the deregulation of the Wnt-signaling seems to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
