RNA-SEQ Quantitative Analysis of WT and Mpl-del-overexpressing AMKL cell Transcriptomes

In the previous studies, we reported that Mpl alternative splicing form Mpl-del overexpressed in acute megakaryoblasttic leukemia (AMKL) patients and mediated thrombopoietin signaling to promote AMKL cells malignant proliferation and chemotherapy resisitance. To investigate the detailed mechanism of Mpl-del mediated AMKL cells proliferation and survival, the AMKL cell Dami stably expressing GFP or Mpl-del-GFP were established by transduction with GFP or Mpl-del-GFP lentiviruses and treated with 20ng/ml TPO for RNA-SEQ analysis to examine the expression of proliferation and survival-related genes. Our results indicated that the levels of the "leading edge" genes that account for survival and prolieration were significantly higher in Mpl--del overexpressed AMKL cells.
