In particular, the up-regulation of miR-29a-3p and miR-660-5p observed in CML LSCs, led to the down-regulation of their respective targets TET2 and EPAS1 and conferred TKI-resistance to CML LSCs in vitro.
We searched for mutations in ASXL1, CBL, DNMT3A, IDH1, IDH2, JAK2, MPL, NF1, SF3B1, SUZ12, and TET2 genes in 149 non-CML MPNs, including 127 "classic" MPNs cases.
In this study, we report a chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) case showing a TET2 single copy partial deletion associated to a t(4;6;11) rearrangement, appearing during the progression of the disease and responsible for a decreased TET2 gene expression.
