ASSOCIATED DISORDERS
corresponding disease(s) HOXA10
Other morbid association(s)
TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
constitutional     --low  
in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), contributing to the diminished reproduction potential of women
tumoral     --over  
promoter hypomethylation is an important mechanism for high expression of HOXA10 in ovarian cancer and may be a potential prognostic factor in ovarian cancer
tumoral     --over  
in poor prognosis human AML(acute myeloid leukemia), and HOXA10 overexpression in myeloid progenitor cells increased TGFB2 production by the cells
tumoral     --over  
of HOXA9 and HOXA10 and their essential cofactor MEIS1 in cells with the t(4;11) chromosome translocation and MLL-AF4 in acute leukemia
tumoral     --over  
increases FGF2 mRNA expression and FGF2 protein secretion in U937 myeloid leukemia cells
tumoral     --over  
in prostate cancer cell lines and tissues compared to those in normal prostate epithelium
Susceptibility to genital malformations
Variant & Polymorphism other rare DNA sequence variations in the HOXA10 gene could contribute to the misdevelopment of female internal genitalia
Candidate gene DNA methylation markers of Gastric cancer (GC), which may serve as useful markers that may identify a distinct subset of GC

ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • mice with Hoxa10 gene disruption exhibited an overwhelming and fatal emergency granulopoiesis response that was characterized by tissue infiltration with granulocytes, but reversed by re-expression of Triad1 in the bone marrow
