Abstract

Changes in cellular metabolism are common properties observed in various cancers. However it remains poorly understood whether metabolic changes directly affect cancer development and progression. In chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), disease can progress from an indolent chronic phase to an aggressive blast crisis phase in which cellular differentiation is arrested and extensive self-renewal of cancer cells occur. By studying mouse CML models, we identified an amino transferase that mediates CML disease progression.
