However, mutant IDH1 greatly accelerated onset of myeloproliferative disease-like myeloid leukemia in mice in cooperation with HoxA9 with a mean latency of 83 days compared with cells expressing HoxA9 and wild-type IDH1 or a control vector (167 and 210 days, respectively, P = .001).
Mice transplanted with bone marrow cells expressing NUP98-HOXA9 through retroviral transduction acquire a myeloproliferative disease (MPD) and eventually succumb to acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
