As indicated in Figure 5B and 5C, When WT1 protein levels were plotted against that of miR-15a/16-1 in each normal control and AML samples, a significant inverse correlation was found (miR-15a verse WT1 R = -0.73 P < 0.01; miR-16-1 verse WT1 R = -0.76 P < 0.01). Here, WT1 is linked to acute myeloid leukemia.
