Therefore, these 2038 MN1-specific transcripts are potentially involved in MN1-induced myeloid leukemia, whereas the 1110 overlapping transcripts between MN1-cells and Δ12–228-cells may play a role in MN1-induced enhanced myeloproliferation and impaired differentiation of murine bone marrow cells. Here, MN1 is linked to myeloid leukemia.
