Title:

BET bromodomain inhibition targets both c-Myc and IL7R in high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Excerpt:
...mice were engrafted with a primary B-ALL sample that harbors a P2RY8-CRLF2 rearrangement...After 4 weeks of treatment, mice receiving JQ1 had lower white blood cell and higher platelet counts compared with vehicle-treated mice (Figure 5D), consistent with reduced leukemic burden in the peripheral blood and bone marrow.
