AML1/ETO sensitizes via TRAIL acute myeloid leukemia cells to the pro-apoptotic effects of hypoxia

We determined the effects of severe hypoxia (∼0.1% O2) on acute myeloid leukemia cells expressing the AML1/ETO oncogene. Incubation of Kasumi-1 cells in hypoxia induced growth arrest, apoptosis and reduction of AML1/ETO protein expression. The conditional expression of AML1/ETO in U937-A/E cells sho...
