Mechanistically, 6 directly bound to and inhibited FTO, upregulating the expression of RARA and ASB2 and downregulating the expression of MYC and CEBPA to exert antileukemia therapeutic effects on a series of AML cell lines, patient-derived primary leukemia cells and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse models [202]. This evidence concerns the gene MYC and acute myeloid leukemia.
