Transcriptional regulation by EVI1 in the absence or presence of TPA

To investigate whether and how expression of the oncogenic transcription factor EVI1 influences gene regulation by phorbol esters and vice versa, the human myeloid cell line U937 was transduced with an EVI1 expression vector or empty vector as a control. Cells were treated with 12-Otetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) or its solvent ethanol as a control. RNA was extracted and subjected to gene expression microarray analysis.
