(A) RNA-Seq analysis shows that treatment of CMK leukemia cells with AZD9150 (10 μM) and control (10 μM) for 24 hours leads to differential expression of various transcripts, including the known leukemia stem cell drivers IL1RAP, MSI2, and MCL1. (B) Important gene pathways are regulated by STAT3 in CMK leukemia cells as analyzed by gene ontology analysis. (C) qPCR validation demonstrates downregulation of STAT3, IL-8, CXCR2, and IL1RAP by AZD9150 treatment. *P < 0.05.
