Does rNA-Seq profiling reveal aberrant RNA splicing in patient with adult acute myeloid leukemia during treatment?
All the data and information of RNA-Seq provides highly accurate and comprehensive supplements to conventional clinical tests of AML. Moreover, the splicing aberrations would be another source for biomarker and even therapeutic target discovery. More information of splicing may also assist the better understanding of leukemogenesis.
We revealed a new molecular mechanism of MTA1-mediated invasion and metastasis in lung cancer through downstream target EpCAM, and interfering with EpCAM function may be a novel therapeutic strategy for treatment of MTA1-overexpressing lung carcinoma.
