Targeted deletion of Btg1 cooperates with ETV6-RUNX1 in regulating critical effector pathways implicated in leukemia. Relative expression levels of Bcl6, Tp53 and p19arf in empty control (Ctrl) and ETV6-RUNX1 transduced wild-type and Btg1-deficient fetal liver-derived hematopoietic progenitor cells by real-time PCR and normalized to the expression of the housekeeping gene TATA box binding protein (TBP). Data represent the mean and SEM of three independent experiments. *, P< 0.05, **, P< 0.01, ***, P< 0.001.
