Abstract
SIRT1 inhibition facilitates elimination of CML stem cells by Imatinib, in part via p53 activation. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Li et al. (2014) demonstrate a similar role for SIRT1 inhibition in eradicating FLT3-ITD AML stem cells, potentially through a positive feedback loop with c-MYC, highlighting SIRT1 as a potential target in combination cancer therapy.
