Gene expression profiling unveils the temporal dynamics of CIGB-300-regulated transcriptome in AML cell lines.

Background: Protein kinase CK2 activity is implicated in the pathogenesis of various hematological malignancies like Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) that remains challenging concerning treatment. This kinase has emerged as an attractive molecular target in therapeutic. Antitumoral peptide CIGB-300 blocks CK2 phospho-acceptor sites on their substrates but it also binds to CK2α catalytic subunit.
