In murine models of CHIP with Tet2 deletion, the proinflammatory cytokine IL1β promotes the expansion of pro-inflammatory monocytes/macrophages and hinder demethylation of enhancers and transcription factor binding sites associated with lymphoid and erythroid differentiation. This work suggests that IL1β enhances the self-renewing ability of Tet2-deficient HSPCs by upregulating self-renewal genes and resisting demethylation, highlighting IL1 signaling as a potential target for early intervention in preleukemic disorders. }, number = {ETD}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/bpxhc43391}, recid = {43391}, address = {2024-06-14}, }
