Zusammenfassung
We analyzed the long intervening non-coding RNA (lincRNA) host genes (MIR100HG, LINC00478 and LINC00085) of the mir-99˜125 clusters. Those miRNA clusters reflect the phylogenetically most ancient miRNA clusters with important roles in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) homeostasis and the development of acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL). By qRT-PCR-profiling, we could show that MIR100HG, LINC00478 and LINC00085 are overexpressed in AMKL cell lines (Meg-01, CMK, CMY) in contrast to other leukemic cell lines (K562, THP-1, Kasumi). For gain and loss of function studies of lincRNAs, we designed and e…
