In this issue of , Cai and colleagues delineate a new mechanism that links cell of origin, the transcription factor EVI1, apoptotic priming, and therapeutic susceptibility in mixed lineage leukemia-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia. These findings establish a cell of origin-dependent program that may be leveraged by therapeutic combinations to overcome drug resistance in chemoresistant leukemias..
在本期的 中,蔡和他的同事们描绘了一个新的机制,该机制将起始细胞、转录因子 EVI1、凋亡启动和治疗敏感性联系起来,用于治疗混合谱系白血病重排的急性髓系白血病。这些发现建立了一个依赖于起始细胞的程序,可能被治疗组合利用,以克服耐药性白血病中的耐药性。
