   Expression Pattern down-regulated
   Function Description

MEG3 is significantly downregulated in AML and suppresses leukemogenesis not only in a p53-dependent, but also a p53-independent manner.MEG3 is proven to be transcriptionally activated by Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1), dysregulation of which by epigenetic silencing or mutations is causally involved in AML.Therefore MEG3 is identified as a novel target of the WT1 molecule. Ten-eleven translocation-2 (TET2) mutations frequently occur in AML and significantly promote leukemogenesis of this disorder.TET2, acting as a cofactor of WT1, increases MEG3 expression.
