Oncogenic cooperation between TCF7-SPI1 and NRAS(G12D) requires β-catenin activity to drive T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

SPI1 fusion genes in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) are commonly found with co-occurring NRAS mutations. Here, the authors show that the combination of these oncogenes is necessary to drive T-ALL in a murine model and that the oncogenic activity of the SPI1 fusion is dependent on β-cate...
