Abstract

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is associated with reciprocal chromosomal translocations involving the retinoic acid receptor α (RARα) locus on chromosome 17. In the majority of cases, RARα translocates and fuses with the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene located on chromosome 15. The resulting fusion genes encode the two structurally unique PML/RARα and RARα/PML fusion proteins as well as aberrant PML gene products, the respective pathogenetic roles of which have not been elucidated. We have generated transgenic mice in which the PML/RARα fusion protein is specifically expressed in the myeloid-promyelocytic lineage. During their first year of life, all the PML/RARα transgenic mice have an abnormal hematopoiesis that can best be described as a myeloproliferative disorder. Between 12 and 14 months of age, 10% of them develop a form of acute leukemia with a differentiation block at the promyelocytic stage that closely mimics human APL even in its response to retinoic acid. Our results are conclusive in vivo evidence that PML/RARα plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of APL.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
