The Partial Duplication of the 5′ Segment of KMT2A Revealed KMT2A-MLLT10 Rearrangement in a Boy with Acute Myeloid Leukemia
The duplication of 5' segment of KMT2A is a rare molecular event in childhood leukemia, and the influence on prognosis is unknown. Here, we report on a boy who developed acute monocytic leukemia. Fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed the duplication of the 5' segment with 2 normal alleles at KMT2A which was eventually found to be fused with MLLT10. Chemotherapy promptly induced the first ...
متن کاملKMT2A promotes melanoma cell growth by targeting hTERT signaling pathway
Melanoma is an aggressive cutaneous malignancy, illuminating the exact mechanisms and finding novel therapeutic targets are urgently needed. In this study, we identified KMT2A as a potential target, which promoted the growth of human melanoma cells. KMT2A knockdown significantly inhibited cell viability and cell migration and induced apoptosis, whereas KMT2A overexpression effectively promoted ...
متن کاملAcute myeloid leukaemia at an early age: Reviewing the interaction between pesticide exposure and KMT2A-rearrangement.
Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in early childhood is characterised by a high frequency of recurrent genomic aberrations associated with distinct myeloid subtypes, clinical outcomes and pathogenesis. Genomic instability is the first step of pathogenic mechanism in early childhood AML. A sum of adverse events is necessary to the development of infant AML (i-AML), which includes latency of biochemi...
متن کاملKmt2a cooperates with menin to suppress tumorigenesis in mouse pancreatic islets
The reported incidence of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) has increased, due in large part to improvements in detection and awareness. However, therapeutic options are limited and a critical need exists for understanding a more thorough characterization of the molecular pathology underlying this disease. The Men1 knockout mouse model recapitulates the early stage of human PanNET deve...
متن کاملDysregulation of the DNA Damage Response and KMT2A Rearrangement in Fetal Liver Hematopoietic Cells
Etoposide, a topoisomerase 2 (TOP2) inhibitor, is associated with the development of KMT2A (MLL)-rearranged infant leukemia. An epidemiological study suggested that in utero exposure to TOP2 inhibitors may be involved in generation of KMT2A (MLL) rearrangement. The present study examined the mechanism underlying the development of KMT2A (MLL)-rearranged infant leukemia in response to in utero e...
