Tet2 Induces Bone Cell Differentiation by Interacting with Runx1 and Regulates Genomic 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)
Ten-Eleven Translocation two (TET2) is one amongst the foremost often mutated genes in adult myeloid malignancies, together with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), myeloproliferative tumor (MPN), chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) , and acute chronic leukemia (AML) . TET2 is additionally found to be mutated in T–cell cancer (such as angioimmunoblastic T cancers) and B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (such as diffuse massive B-cell lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma) . Notably, TET2 mutations are rife in healthy aged people aged >70 years (∼5%) and are related to clonal haematopoiesis . Tet2 deficiency in mice leads to increased haematogenic somatic cell (HSC) self-renewal. what is more, Tet2 loss skews the differentiation of haematogenic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) towards granulocytic/monocytic lineage, often leading to monocytosis and accumulation of monocytes/macrophages in bone marrow (BM) and spleen of mice . Fusion of the monocyte-m...
