    Signalling input from divergent pathways subverts B cell transformation

    Malignant transformation of cells typically involves several genetic lesions, whose combined activity gives rise to cancer1. Here we analyse 1,148 patient-derived B-cell leukaemia (B-ALL) samples, and find that i...

    Author Correction: Metabolic gatekeeper function of B-lymphoid transcription factors

    In Fig. 3c of this Letter, the the effects of CRISPR–Cas9-mediated deletion of NR3C1, TXNIP and CNR2 in patient-derived B-lineage leukaemia cells were shown. For curves depicting NR3C1 (left graph), data s for TX...

    Metabolic gatekeeper function of B-lymphoid transcription factors

    The B-lymphoid transcription factors PAX5 and IKZF1 restrict the supply of glucose and energy to B cells to levels that are not enough to fuel a driver-oncogene, thereby acting as tumour suppressors and sensit...

    Correction: Corrigendum: Signalling thresholds and negative B-cell selection in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

    Nature 521, 357–361 (2015); doi:10.1038/nature14231 In Extended Data Fig. 3b of this Letter, 52 flow cytometry dot plots with double stainings for CD19 and ITIM-bearing receptors (PECAM1, LAIR1, CD300A and BTL...

    PTEN opposes negative selection and enables oncogenic transformation of pre-B cells

    As opposed to its tumor suppressor role in other cancers, PTEN inhibition in pre-B ALL is therapeutically effective and triggers cell death.

    Signalling thresholds and negative B-cell selection in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

    This study shows that, despite malignant transformation, autoimmune checkpoints are still functional in B-cell leukaemia, with targeted activation of these checkpoints effectively killing patient-derived B-cel...

    BCL6 enables Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukaemia cells to survive BCR–ABL1 kinase inhibition

    Targeted cancer therapies are often associated with drug resistance, a phenomenon that has been observed with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), widely used to treat leukaemia driven by BCR–ABL1 mutations. Markus...
