Abstract
Abstract Abstract 1222 The molecular mechanism leading to disease progression of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) still remains to be identified although enhanced BCR/ABL expression and activity seems to play an important role in controlling genomic stability, differentiation, and self renewal of the leukemic cell clone undergoing blastic tranformation by affecting expression and function of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) like hnRNP A1, hnRNP E2, and hnRNP K (Perrotti D. et al. J. Clin Invest. 2010). We previously reported (Harb J. et al., ASH 2009) that a BCR-ABL1 dosage-dependence and hierarchical organization exists for the expression of hnRNP A1, hnRNP E2, and hnRNP K in cell line models of CML. In fact, as BCR/ABL levels increase, upregulated expression of hnRNP A1 is observed, followed by increased expression of hnRNP E2 and hnRNP K. HnRNP A1 and hnRNP K were also temporally expressed within Lineage- Sca-1+ c-kit+ (LSK), common myeloid progenitors (CMP), and granulocyte macrophage progenitors (GMP) in a mouse model (SCLtTA TRE-BCR/ABL) of chronic myeloid leukemia. Interestingly, hnRNP A1 and hnRNP K levels in BCR/ABL+ mouse progenitors correlated with disease severity as mice with higher levels of these RBPs presented a more progressed phenotype characterized by increased mixed lineage B220+/Mac-1+ progenitors in bone marrow and spleen when compared with mice that developed a CML-CP-like phenotype. Here we show that hnRNP A1, hnRNP E2, and hnRNP K expression levels, as well as BCR/ABL activity are different in HSC (CD34+/CD38-), CMP (CD34+/CD38+/CD45+/IL-3Ra-), and GMP (CD34+/CD38+/CD45+/IL-3Ra+) isolated from peripheral blood of patients in chronic phase (CML-CP) at diagnosis, untreated accelerated phase (CML-AP), and blast crisis (CML-BC). Interestingly, in CML-CP, the highest expression of hnRNP A1 was found in the CD34+/CD38- stem cell fraction and it gradually decreased in the more mature CMP and GMP progenitors (55% and 65% lower, respectively). By contrast, consistent with the role of hnRNP A1 as regulator of progenitor cell proliferation and survival, hnRNP A1 expression progressively increased in the HSC, CMP and GMP fractions isolated from patients in CML-AP and CML-BC. Unlike hnRNP A1, hnRNP E2 and hnRNP K were barely detected in the CD34+/CD38- from CML-CP patients but their expression was markedly pronounced in the HSC fraction of progressed CML patients. In agreement with our cell line data, expression of hnRNP A1 and hnRNP E2 in advanced CML (CML-AP and CML-BC) increases when CD34+/CD38- stem cells undergo maturation toward CMP. Conversely, it appears that hnRNP K expression is the last to increase in CML-BC, suggesting a hierarchical regulation of RBP expression during differentiation and lineage commitment. Expectedly, levels of hnRNP A1 in CMPs increase during disease progression (CP Taken together, these data further implicate RBPs hnRNP A1, hnRNP E2, and hnRNP K in CML disease progression and suggest their possible role in the control of survival of stem and primitive CML-CP progenitors.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
