Nuclear FGFR2 Interacts with the MLL-AF4 Oncogenic Chimera and Positively Regulates <i>HOXA9</i> Gene Expression in t(4;11) Leukemia Cells
The chromosomal translocation t(4;11) marks an infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia associated with dismal prognosis. This rearrangement leads to the synthesis of the MLL-AF4 chimera, which exerts its oncogenic activity by upregulating transcription of genes involved in hematopoietic differentiation....
