    • MicroRNA-Mediated Control of Cell Fate in Megakaryocyte-Erythrocyte Progenitors 

      Lu, Jun; Guo, Shangqin; Ebert, Benjamin L.; Zhang, Hao; Peng, Xiao; Bosco, Jocelyn; Pretz, Jennifer Lee; Schlanger, Rita; Wang, Judy Y.; Mak, Raymond Heungwing; Dombkowski, David M.; Preffer, Frederic Ira; Scadden, David Thomas; Golub, Todd Robert (Elsevier BV, 2008)
      Lineage specification is a critical issue in developmental and regenerative biology. We hypothesized that microRNAs (miRNAs) are important participants in that process and used the poorly-understood regulation of ...
    • Mitochondrial Atpif1 regulates heme synthesis in developing erythroblasts 

      Shah, Dhvanit I; Takahashi-Makise, Naoko; Cooney, Jeffrey D.; Li, Liangtao; Schultz, Iman J.; Pierce, Eric L.; Narla, Anupama; Seguin, Alexandra; Hattangadi, Shilpa M.; Medlock, Amy E.; Langer, Nathaniel B.; Dailey, Tamara A.; Hurst, Slater N.; Faccenda, Danilo; Wiwczar, Jessica M.; Heggers, Spencer K.; Vogin, Guillaume; Chen, Wen; Chen, Caiyong; Campagna, Dean R.; Brugnara, Carlo; Zhou, Yi; Ebert, Benjamin L.; Danial, Nika; Fleming, Mark Daniel; Ward, Diane M.; Campanella, Michelangelo; Dailey, Harry A.; Kaplan, Jerry; Paw, Barry Htin (2012)
      SUMMARY Defects in the availability of heme substrates or the catalytic activity of the terminal enzyme in heme biosynthesis, ferrochelatase (Fech), impair heme synthesis, and thus cause human congenital anemias1,2. The ...
    • Musashi-2 controls cell fate, lineage bias, and TGF-β signaling in HSCs 

      Park, Sun-Mi; Deering, Raquel P.; Lu, Yuheng; Tivnan, Patrick; Lianoglou, Steve; Al-Shahrour, Fatima; Ebert, Benjamin L.; Hacohen, Nir; Leslie, Christina; Daley, George Q.; Lengner, Christopher J.; Kharas, Michael G. (The Rockefeller University Press, 2014)
      Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are maintained through the regulation of symmetric and asymmetric cell division. We report that conditional ablation of the RNA-binding protein Msi2 results in a failure of HSC maintenance ...
    • Mutations in epigenetic regulators including SETD2 are gained during relapse in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia 

      Mar, Brenton G; Bullinger, Lars B; McLean, Kathleen M; Grauman, Peter V; Harris, Marian H; Stevenson, Kristen; Neuberg, Donna S; Sinha, Amit U; Sallan, Stephen E; Silverman, Lewis B; Kung, Andrew L; Nigro, Luca Lo; Ebert, Benjamin L; Armstrong, Scott A (2014)
      Relapsed pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has high rates of treatment failure. Epigenetic regulators have been proposed as modulators of chemoresistance, here we sequence genes encoding epigenetic regulators ...
    • Mutations in G protein β subunits promote transformation and kinase inhibitor resistance 

      Yoda, Akinori; Adelmant, Guillaume; Tamburini, Jerome; Chapuy, Bjoern; Shindoh, Nobuaki; Yoda, Yuka; Weigert, Oliver; Kopp, Nadja; Wu, Shuo-Chieh; Kim, Sunhee S; Liu, Huiyun; Tivey, Trevor; Christie, Amanda L; Elpek, Kutlu G; Card, Joseph; Gritsman, Kira; Gotlib, Jason; Deininger, Michael W; Makishima, Hideki; Turley, Shannon J.; Javidi-Sharifi, Nathalie; Maciejewski, Jaroslaw P; Jaiswal, Siddhartha; Ebert, Benjamin L.; Rodig, Scott J.; Tyner, Jeffrey W; Marto, Jarrod; Weinstock, David Marc; Lane, Andrew Alan (Nature Publishing Group, 2014)
      Activating mutations in genes encoding G protein α (Gα) subunits occur in 4-5% of all human cancers, but oncogenic alterations in Gβ subunits have not been defined. Here we demonstrate that recurrent mutations in the Gβ ...
    • Niche-Based Screening in Multiple Myeloma Identifies a Kinesin-5 Inhibitor with Improved Selectivity over Hematopoietic Progenitors 

      Chattopadhyay, Shrikanta; Stewart, Alison L.; Mukherjee, Siddhartha; Huang, Cherrie; Hartwell, Kimberly A.; Miller, Peter Grant; Subramanian, Radhika; Carmody, Leigh C.; Yusuf, Rushdia Zareen; Sykes, David Brian; Paulk, Joshiawa; Vetere, Amedeo; Vallet, Sonia; Santo, Loredana; Cirstea, Diana D.; Hideshima, Teru; Dan?ík, Vlado; Majireck, Max M.; Hussain, Mahmud M.; Singh, Shambhavi; Quiroz, Ryan; Iaconelli, Jonathan; Karmacharya, Rakesh; Tolliday, Nicola J.; Clemons, Paul A.; Moore, Malcolm A.S.; Stern, Andrew M.; Shamji, Alykhan Farid; Ebert, Benjamin L.; Golub, Todd Robert; Raje, Noopur; Scadden, David Thomas; Schreiber, Stuart L. (Elsevier BV, 2015)
      Novel therapeutic approaches are urgently required for multiple myeloma (MM). We used a phenotypic screening approach using co-cultures of MM cells with bone marrow stromal cells to identify compounds that overcome stromal ...
