The gene encoding the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor is a target for deregulation in pre-B ALL by the t(1;19)-specific oncoprotein E2A-Pbx1

Abstract: Approximately 25 ± 30% of childhood pre-B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (pre-B ALL) is characterized by the presence of a (1;19)(q23;p13.3) translocation. The presence of this translocation is generally accompanied by a poor prognosis. The chimeric gene resulting from this chromosomal rearrangement encodes a hybrid transcription factor, E2A-Pbx1. In an attempt to delineate the genetic cascade initiated by E2A-Pbx1, we sought to identify genes that are deregulated by this transcription factor in t(1;19) pr… Show more

“…In response to ligand-binding, surface expression of the mutant G-CSFR forms was found to be increased, which correlated with sustained intracellular activation and enhanced growth and survival responses to G-CSF [10,29,30,36]. Increased expression of the G-CSFR either at the mRNA or protein level has also been reported in patients with AML without antecedent SCN, and in patients with CML and acute and chronic lymphoid leukemias [37][38][39][40][41][42][43].…”

“…Recently, De Lau et al (1998) identi®ed the granulocyte colony stimulating factor receptor gene (G-CSFR) as induced in a non-t(1;19) cell line coincident with activation of E2a-Pbx1 expression and as consistently upregulated in t(1;19)-containing leukemias. We did not identify cDNA fragments encoding G-CSFR, potentially due to its low expression level, to negative selection by our RDA protocol, or to the selective ampli®cation of other more abundant sequences representing dierences between Nalm-6 (t(1;19)-negative) and 697 (t(1;19)-positive) pre-B cells.…”

“…A number of studies have also described a role for altered G-CSF-R signalling as a contributing factor to a range of hematological malignancies. For example, expression of the CSF3R gene is increased by two oncogenic fusions, directly in the case of E2A-Pbx1 (96), or indirectly (via C/EBPε) by AML1-MTG8 (97). In the latter case, this lead to increased G-CSF-dependent proliferation (97).…”
