Title Enhanced MAPK signaling is essential for CSF3R-induced leukemia.
URL
Abstract Text Both membrane-proximal and truncation mutations in CSF3R have recently been reported to drive the onset of chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL). Here we show that although truncation mutation alone cannot induce leukemia, both proximal and compound mutations (proximal and truncation mutations on same allele) are leukemogenic with a disease latency of 90 and 23 days, respectively. Comparative whole-genome expression profiling and biochemical experiments revealed that induced expression of Mapk adaptor protein Ksr1 and enhanced Mapk signaling are crucial to leukemogenesis by CSF3R proximal and compound mutants. Moreover, inhibition of Mek1/2 by trametinib alone is sufficient to suppress leukemia induced by both CSF3R proximal and ruxolitinib-resistant compound mutations. Together, these findings elucidate a Mapk-dependent mechanism of CSF3R-induced pathogenesis, and they establish the rationale for clinical evaluation of MEK1/2 inhibition in CNL.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
