T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an immature hematopoietic malignancy driven mainly by oncogenic activation of NOTCH1 signaling. In this study we conduct expression analysis in NOTCH1-IC-induced tumors in Utx wild-type (Utx+/+ or Utx+/Y) and knockout (Utx-/Y) background. These results, coupled to genomic analysis of primary samples for the genomic status of the UTX gene in T-ALL, helped us to characterize the hitherto understudied role of Utx as an oncogenic facilitator in leukemia and the contrasting expression signatures between JMJD3 and UTX in this disease.
