    Blood 106:3988-94. 2005
    ..Hoxa-9 appears to be specifically required for normal hematopoietic stem cell function both in vitro and in vivo...

    Blood 109:4732-8. 2007
    ..Since HOXA9 is frequently up-regulated in acute myeloid leukemia, Pim1 may be a therapeutic target in human disease...

    Yu Long Hu
    Department of Medicine, Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center and University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
    Nucleic Acids Res 38:5472-8. 2010
    ..Pu.1, an important regulator of myelopoiesis, was identified as a putative down stream target for miR-155. Although miR-155 was shown to down-regulate the Pu.1 protein, HOXA9 did not appear to modulate Pu.1 expression in murine BM cells...

    Blood 105:1456-66. 2005
    ..These biologic effects of HOXB6 were largely dependent on DNA binding but independent of direct interaction with PBX1...

  1. HOXA9 GENE AS A THERAPEUTIC TARGET IN LEUKEMIA
    HUGH LAWRENCE; Fiscal Year: 2002
    ..We anticipate that therapies targeting the expression and/or function of HOX proteins could have a major role in the clinical treatment of leukemia. ..
  2. THE ROLE OF HOX HOMEOBOX GENES IN NORMAL HEMATOPOIESIS
    HUGH LAWRENCE; Fiscal Year: 2003
    ..This will involve a) analysis of Hox gene activation in hematopoietic precursors by retinoic acid and b) assessing responses of specific Hox deficient blood cells to retinoids. ..
