Abstract

Tissue-inappropriate derepression of the mesenchymal transcription factor gene Forkhead Box C1 (FOXC1) occurs in approximately 20% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Through experimental and bioinformatics analyses, we have demonstrated this to be both functional (enhancing the myeloid lineage differentiation block characteristic of the disease) and adversely prognostic.
