Olivia Kovecses' new paper alert!
RNA activation of CEBPA improves leukemia treatment, now published in Molecular Therapy Nucleic Acids

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a devastating blood cancer that often strikes suddenly and progresses fast, leaving few effective treatment options.
This work is exciting because it shows that RNA can be selectively delivered into AML cells and used to switch on a transcription factor (C/EBPa) that’s normally considered “undruggable.” This opens the door to a new therapeutic strategy for one of the most aggressive forms of the disease (FLT3-mutated AML).

The project brought together an amazing team spanning academia, industry, and clinical research minatx.com Nathan Luedtke and Francois Mercier. We gratefully acknowledge Canadian Cancer Society, CIHR, and Cole Foundation for scholarships and funding.

I want to especially recognize our brilliant PhD student, Olivia, who was practically single-handedly responsible for this project. I’ve never seen such persistence, creativity, and dedication. She pushed through difficult experiments, learned animal work from scratch, and crossed Montreal almost daily to capture critical time points and measurements. Her determination and care made this study possible. The results are promising and open an entirely new area of research for this devastating disease.
