The transcriptional coactivator MN1 has been identified as a gene overexpressed in certain types of human acute myeloid leukemia. Upregulation is invariantly associated with inv(16) AML but is also found in other AML subtypes. Overexpression of this gene is also associated with a worse prognosis and a shorter survival in AML patients with a normal karyotype. In this short review, I will discuss the role of MN1 in myeloid leukemia.
转录共激活因子MN1已被鉴定为在某些类型的人类急性髓系白血病中过表达的基因。上调始终与inv(16)急性髓系白血病相关,但在其他急性髓系白血病亚型中也有发现。该基因的过表达还与核型正常的急性髓系白血病患者预后较差和生存期较短有关。在这篇简短的综述中,我将讨论MN1在髓系白血病中的作用。
