Project description:To identify potential mRNA targets of FTO whose m6A levels are influenced in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, we conducted m6A-seq for mRNA isolated from MA9.3ITD cells with and without knockdown of FTO
Project description:To identify the potential targets genes of FTO in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), we peroformed RNA-seq of NB4 cells with or without FTO knockdown based on Illumina Hiseq system.
Project description:To identify potential mRNA targets of FTO whose m6A levels are affected by FTO in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, we conducted m6A-seq for messenger RNAs isolated from AML cells with and without forced expression of FTO.
Project description:FTO, an N6-methyladenosine demethylase, has emerged as a promising target for the treatment of specific acute myeloid leukemia (AML) subtypes. Here, we investigate the antiproliferative effects of the FTO inhibitor FB23-2 in leukemia. We demonstrate that FB23-2 potently inhibits proliferation across both AML and CML cell lines, irrespective of their responsiveness to FTO depletion. Interestingly, FB23-2 induces cell cycle arrest without a concurrent increase in m6A levels, suggesting an alternative mechanism of action.
