Expression and functional relevance of long non-coding RNAs in acute myeloid leukemia stem cells

In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), novel therapies are needed to target not only the rapidly dividing AML blasts but also the distinct population of leukemia stem cells (LSCs), which have abnormal self-renewal capacity and increased chemotherapy resistance. Elucidation of the expression and function o...

Zusammenfassung:In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), novel therapies are needed to target not only the rapidly dividing AML blasts but also the distinct population of leukemia stem cells (LSCs), which have abnormal self-renewal capacity and increased chemotherapy resistance. Elucidation of the expression and function of deregulated genes in LSCs is critical to specifically target LSCs and may consequently lead to improving outcomes of AML patients. Here, we correlated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression profiles obtained from two RNA-seq datasets of 375 younger (aged
