Ho Keun Yi, Ran Ju Kim, Dae Yeol Lee, Jung Soo Kim, Pyoung Han Hwang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(7):942-951.   Published online July 15, 2000
Purpose : Fusion genes(EWS-Fli-1 and EWS-erg ) function as transcription activators and are essential for maintaining tumorigenic properties in Ewing`s sarcoma cells. Several reports have noted that Ets family transcription factors bind with CBP(CREB binding protein) in vitro. To understand the interaction of fusion proteins and CBP, we studied the CBP protein in TC135 cells expressing the EWS-Fli-1 gene. We...

The purine antimetabolite 6-Mercaptopurine (6-MP) has been in clinical use for over 30 years and is still a widely used agent in the treatment of childhood acute lymphoglastic leukemia. The bioavailibility, clinical effecacy and toxicity of 6-MP administered orally for maintenance therapy of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia are highly variable in many studies, as well as at different times...
