PBX3 and MEIS1 Cooperate in Hematopoietic Cells to Drive Acute Myeloid Leukemias Characterized by a Core Transcriptome of the MLL-Rearranged Disease.
Overexpression of HOXA/MEIS1/PBX3 homeobox genes is the hallmark of mixed lineage leukemia (MLL)-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (AML). HOXA9 and MEIS1 are considered to be the most critical targets of MLL fusions and their coexpression rapidly induces AML. MEIS1 and PBX3 are not individually able to transform cells and were therefore hypothesized to function as cofactors of HOXA9. However, i...
متن کاملDangerous liaisons
Cells during mitosis and meiosis undergo chromosome condensation through a process that depends on evolutionary conserved large protein complexes known as condensins. There are two condensing complexes, condensin i and ii, each of which is composed of five subunits. Condensin i and ii play essential, yet distinct, roles in chromosome condensation and segregation during mitosis. Recent findings ...
متن کاملDangerous liaisons: The relationship between schizophrenia and diabetes
Article points 1. Studies suggest that prevalence of type 2 diabetes in people with schizophrenia is 2–4 times greater than that of the general population. 2. Various explanatory models exist to explain the comorbidity of schizophrenia and diabetes. These include environmental, genetic, neuro-endocrine and iatrogenic effects. 3. Healthcare professionals need to be aware of this association and ...
متن کاملSmoking and asthma: dangerous liaisons.
Cigarette smoking and asthma interact to induce important adverse effects on clinical, prognostic and therapeutic outcomes. This review examines recent evidence on the harmful effects of smoking in asthma, possible underlying inflammatory mechanisms for this altered response, management options for these patients and potential future therapeutic directions. Active smokers, particularly females,...
