To identify Six1 target genes, we chose the mK4 cell line that represents later metanephric mesenchyme of the embryonic kidney. The cells were infected with adenovirus vectors (AxCAwt) overexpressing VP16-Six1wt or VP16-Six1W171R and cultured for 24h. Total RNA was extracted using Isogen reagent (Ni...
A humanized in vivo APL model has been established utilizing the retroviral transduction of PML-RARA into human CD34+ hematopoietic cells and the transplantation of these cells into immunodeficient mice. The resultant leukemia recapitulated human APL phenotypically, and was clustered in the same cat...
