RNAi profiling of human myeloid leukemia cells knocked down for CREB

ABSTRACT: Background. The cAMP Response Element Binding Protein, CREB, is a transcription factor that regulates cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival in several model systems, including neuronal and hematopoietic cells. We demonstrated that CREB is overexpressed in acute myeloid and leukemia cells compared to normal hematopoietic stem cells. CREB knockdown inhibits leukemic cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo, but does not affect long-term hematopoietic reconstitution. Therefore, we propose CREB to be a potential target for therapy. To understand downstream pathways regulating CREB, we performed expression profiling with RNA from the K562 myeloid leukemia cell line. Results. By combining our expression data from CREB knockdown cells with prior ChIP data on CREB binding we were a
