Scope and Contents

Contents

Pathogenic mutations of the genes encoding isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) and 2 (IDH2) occur in people with acute myeloid leukemia or other tumors. A new study identifies a dependence of
IDH
-mutated cells on the anti-apoptosis regulator BCL-2 and indicates a 'synthetic lethal' strategy for the treatment of leukemias.
