The molecular mechanisms underlying the transformation of Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML) from chronic phase (CP) to blast crisis (BC) are not completely elucidated. Here, the authors show that acquired miR-142 deficiency drives CML BC by regulating mitochondrial metabolism and is a potential therapeutic target to prevent BC in CML murine models.
