High levels of the BCR/ABL oncoprotein are required for the MAPK-hnRNP-E2–dependent suppression of C/EBPα-driven myeloid differentiation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The inability of myeloid chronic myelogenous leukemia blast crisis (CML-BC) progenitors to undergo neutrophil differentiation depends on suppression of C/EBPalpha expression through the translation inhibitory activity of the RNA-binding protein hnRNP-E2. Here we show that "oncogene dosage" is a determinant factor for suppression of differentiation in CML-BC. In fact, high levels of p210-BCR/ABL are required for enhanced hnRNP-E2 expression, which depends on phosphorylation of hnRNP-E2 serines 173, 189, and 272 and threonine 213 by the BCR/ABL-activated MAPK(ERK1/2). Serine/threonine to alanine substitution abolishes hnRNP-E2 phosphorylation and markedly decreases its stability in BCR/ABL-expressing myeloid precursors. Similarly, pharmacologic inhibition of MAPK(ERK1/2) activity decreases hnRNP-E2 binding to the 5'UTR of C/EBPalpha mRNA by impairing hnRNP-E2 phosphorylation and stability. This, in turn, restores in vitro and/or in vivo C/EBPalpha expression and G-CSF-driven neutrophilic maturation of differentiation-arrested BCR/ABL(+) cell lines, primary CML-BC(CD34+) patient cells and lineage-negative mouse bone marrow cells expressing high levels of p210-BCR/ABL. Thus, increased BCR/ABL oncogenic tyrosine kinase activity is essential for suppression of myeloid differentiation of CML-BC progenitors as it is required for sustained activation of the MAPK(ERK1/2)-hnRNP-E2-C/EBPalpha differentiation-inhibitory pathway. Furthermore, these findings suggest the inclusion of clinically relevant MAPK inhibitors in the therapy of CML-BC.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
