    Mutation or epigenetic silencing of the transcription factor C/EBP alpha is observed in similar to 10% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In both cases, a common global gene expression profile is observed, but downstream targets relevant for leukemogenesis are not known. Here, we identify Sox4 as a direct target of C/EBP alpha whereby its expression is inversely correlated with C/EBP alpha activity. Downregulation of Sox4 abrogated increased self-renewal of leukemic cells and restored their differentiation. Gene expression profiles of leukemia-initiating cells (LICs) from both Sox4 overexpression and murine C/EBP alpha mutant AML models clustered together but differed from other types of AML. Our data demonstrate that Sox4 overexpression resulting from C/EBP alpha inactivation contributes to the development of leukemia with a distinct LIC phenotype.
