Journal Article
Grundy, M., Balakrishnan, S., Fox, M., Seedhouse, C., & Russell, N. (2018). Genetic biomarkers predict response to dual BCL-2 and MCL-1 targeting in acute myeloid leukaemia cells. Oncotarget, 9, Article 102. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.26540

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells often up-regulate pro-survival members of the BCL-2 protein family, such as BCL-2 and MCL-1, to avoid apoptosis. Venetoclax (ABT-199) targets BCL-2 and has shown promising efficacy in AML but over-expression of MCL...
