Abstract:
Ecotropic viral integration site-1 (Evi-1) gene is first identified as a binding site for retrovirus in murine myeloid leukemia.The human homologue with the murine in leukemia oncogene Evi-1 is about 91% of nuclear sequence and 94% of amino acid.Evi-1 gene is high expressed in myeloid malignancies and other tumors.The main tumorigenic mechanisms of Evi-1 gene include inhibiting TGF-β signal path by depressing Smad3,adjusting cell cycle,promoting angiogenesis,inhibiting JNK.activating AP-1,and so on.
