A human fetal liver-derived infant MLL-AF4 acute lymphoblastic leukemia model reveals a distinct fetal gene expression program

It is unknown why infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) produced by MLL rearrangements leads to worse outcomes than childhood ALL. Here the authors develop a CRISPR-Cas9-induced human xenograft model of MLL-AF4 infant-ALL that faithfully replicates the disease and reveals that fetal-specific gen...

Sumario:It is unknown why infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) produced by MLL rearrangements leads to worse outcomes than childhood ALL. Here the authors develop a CRISPR-Cas9-induced human xenograft model of MLL-AF4 infant-ALL that faithfully replicates the disease and reveals that fetal-specific genes are potential infant-ALL drivers.
