Yale Scientists Discover a New Pathogenic Mechanism in Hematological Malignancies
Scientists at Yale Cancer Center have discovered new consequences of specific gene mutations that play a role in the development of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Approximately half the patients diagnosed with MDS and 10% of patients with AML are found to have splicing factor mutations leading to ineffective blood cell production and malignancy. The new research revealed that mutations in the splicing factor U2AF1 improve the ability of the cancer cells to respond to and survive stress. The findings were published today in Molecular Cell.
