摘要: The interaction between the tyrosine kinase receptor Flt3 and its ligand leads to signalling during commitment of haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Constitutive activation Flt3/FL pathway is a key factor in enhanced survival expansion acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Although there extensive knowledge regarding mutations leading constitutive activity, molecular mechanisms underlying regulation \(flt3\) gene HSCs, how such might be altered leukaemia, are still poorly understood. Here, by using HSC leukaemic cell lines, I locate several regulatory elements locus DNaseI mapping have characterized their epigenetic environment. Analysis methylation acetylation status histones H3 H4 around \(flt3 cis\)-regulatory regions highlights distinct combination modifications specific AML region that distinguishes Flt3\(^-\) Flt3\(^+\) stages differentiation. Moreover, show link \(in vivo\) binding C/EBP c-Myb on remodelling differential cells. Finally, identify histone modifiers TIP60 CBP as potential mediators
