In order to assess if oncogenic BRAF signaling may induce venetoclax resistance, we overexpressed mutated BRAF (p.V600E) in a venetoclax-sensitive cell line OCI-LY19 (Fig. 3a). Exome sequencing of this cell line revealed
[Paragraph-level] PMCID: PMC5820258 Section: RESULTS PassageIndex: 16
Evidence Type(s): Predictive, Oncogenic
Justification: Predictive: The passage discusses how the BRAFV600E variant correlates with venetoclax resistance, indicating a relationship between the variant and treatment response. Oncogenic: The passage describes the overexpression of the mutated BRAF (p.V600E) in a cell line, which is associated with increased resistance to venetoclax, suggesting that this somatic variant contributes to tumor progression.
