The fold changes relative to expression in the WT thymus are shown above each lane; (I) q-PCR analysis shows the fold changes in HAVCR2, ITGAX, LMO2 and MYC expression in control shRNA (blue) and shSPI1 knockdown human T-ALL KE-37 cells (red); (D–I) All experiments were performed at least three independent times, and the data in D, E, F, G, and I are the means ± S.Ds; *p≤0.05; **p≤0.01; ***p≤0.001. The gene discussed is ITGAX; the disease is acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
