ETV6/RUNX1 FUSION GENE ABROGATION DECREASES THE ONCOGENICITY OF TUMOUR CELLS IN A PRECLINICAL MODEL OF ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKAEMIA

ETV6/RUNX1 Fusion Gene Abrogation Decreases the Oncogenicity of Tumour Cells in a Preclinical Model of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Background: The t(12;21)(p13;q22), which fuses ETV6 and RUNX1 genes, is the most common genetic abnormality in children with B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.The implication of the Sofa Bed fusion protein in leukemogenesis seems to be clear.However, its role in the maintenance of the disease continues to be controversial.Methods: Gene

Abundance and Compositions of B-Vitamin-Producing Microbes in the Mammalian Gut Vary Based on Feeding Strategies

ABSTRACT Mammals maintain close associations with gut microbes that provide numerous nutritional benefits, including vitamin synthesis.While most mammals obtain sufficient vitamins from their diets, deficiencies in various B vitamins (biotin, cobalamin, riboflavin, thiamine, etc.) are reported in captive animals.Biomedical and agricultural research
