Nucleophosmin-anaplastic lymphoma kinase expression is associated with a lymphoid malignancy, anaplastic large cell lymphoma, and is characterized by a t(2;5) chromosomal translocation.
We describe a novel transgenic mouse line in which NPM-ALK expression is targeted to the T-cell lineage using the CD2 promoter.
Surprisingly, the mice develop B cell lymphomas in the majority of cases.
These data stress the importance of choice of promoter to drive transgene expression in obtaining the desired phenotype.
核磷蛋白-间变性淋巴瘤激酶表达与一种淋巴恶性肿瘤——间变性大细胞淋巴瘤相关,其特征为t(2;5)染色体易位。
我们描述了一种新型转基因小鼠品系,其中使用CD2启动子将NPM-ALK表达靶向T细胞谱系。
令人惊讶的是,在大多数情况下,这些小鼠会发生B细胞淋巴瘤。
这些数据强调了在获得所需表型时选择启动子来驱动转基因表达的重要性。
