Research Abstract |
To detect specific miRNA in cancer stem cell of chromic myelogenious leukemia (CML), we established CML mice (B6) which can develop CML. We got cancer stem cells from B6 mice and examined miRNA expression from KLS population. We found that several miRNA were up-or down regulated in these mice. For instance, down regulation of miR-203,miR-200c, miR-26,miR-21,miR-2105, and miR-181. In this time we are examining targets of these miRNAs. We identified Bmi-1 is possible target of miR-200c in CML stem cells. And we fort her demonstrated that bortezomib was effective for diminishing CML stem cells by targeting both Bmi-1 and miR-200c.
