Furthermore, the genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition of CDK1 by RO-3306 and PIN1 by all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), the standard care for Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia could markedly suppress tumor growth, metastasis and sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs in a pVHL dependent manner. This evidence concerns the gene CDK1 and acute promyelocytic leukemia.
