Among the signatory genes we find BCL2-like 11 apoptosis facilitator (BCL2L11, Bim), Down syndrome critical region gene 1 (DSCR1), Thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP, VDUP1), DNA-damage-inducible transcript 4 (DDIT4, RTP801, REDD1, or dig2), Nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells inhibitor, alpha (NFKBIA), FK506 binding protein 5 (FKBP5), and exclusive to the examined human leukemias GC-induced leucine zipper (TSC22D3, DSIPI, or GILZ), all of which have been investigated for possible roles in GC-stimulated apoptosis [22,25-31]. Here, NFKBIA is linked to leukemia.
