Abstract IARS2 encodes mitochondrial isoleucine-tRNA synthetase, which mutation may cause multiple diseases.
However, the biological function of IARS2 on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has not yet been identified.
In the present study, qRT-PCR was used to determine the expression of IARS2 in K562, THP1, and HL-60
leukemia cells. Additionally the mRNA levels of IARS2 in CD34 cells and AML cells obtained from patients
were detected by qRT-PCR. IARS2-shRNA lentiviral vector was established and used to infect acute myeloid
leukemia HL-60 cells. qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis were employed to assess the knockdown effect of
IARS2. The… More >
