IGF2BP3 Promotes Stemness and Leukemogenesis in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification in mRNA, and its modulators have been implicated in various biological processes. Here, we demonstrate that the mRNA m6A reader IGF2BP3 is highly expressed in human acute myeloid leukemia (AML), particularly in AML leukemia stem/initiating cells (LSCs/LICs). IGF2BP3 is required for the development and maintenance of AML and the self-renewal of LSCs/LICs but dispensable for normal hematopoiesis. IGF2BP3 exhibits promising anti-AML efficacy both in vitro and in vivo, providing new therapeutic strategies for targeting AML.
