Abstract
Purpose
This study aims to investigate the increased toxicity of Cytarabine (Ara-c) by knockdown of chromosome segregation 1-like (CSE1L) in acute myeloid leukemia(AML) cells(Kasumi-1, U937, and THP-1 cells) and to explore its possible mechanisms.
Methods
Target gene silencing was achieved using the shRNA-mediated lentivirus method. Apoptosis was identified using the Annexin V PE/7-AAD double-staining assay. Cell viability was assessed with the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Protein expression was detected by Western blotting.
Results
In vitro, knocking down CSE1L promoted caspase-3 and caspase-9 proteins expression and induced apoptosis in AML cells. Knockdown of CSE1L enhanced AML cells' sensitivity to Ara-c. knockdown of CSE1L reduced the expression levels of p-JKA2 and p-STAT3 proteins, while no significant difference was observed in the expression levels of total JAK2 and STAT3 proteins. Furthermore, JAK2 overexpression reversed the increase in Ara-c toxicity to AML cells caused by CSE1L knockdown.
Conclusion
In conclusion, our study reveals that CSE1L is a potential therapeutic target for overcoming Ara-c resistance in AML cells. Thus, we have gained new insights into the oncogenic process of CSE1L in AML cells and raised the prospect of knockdown of CSE1L in AML in combination with cytarabine-targeted therapy.
期刊介绍:
Indian Journal of Hematology and Blood Transfusion is a medium for propagating and exchanging ideas within the medical community. It publishes peer-reviewed articles on a variety of aspects of clinical hematology, laboratory hematology and hemato-oncology. The journal exists to encourage scientific investigation in the study of blood in health and in disease; to promote and foster the exchange and diffusion of knowledge relating to blood and blood-forming tissues; and to provide a forum for discussion of hematological subjects on a national scale.
The Journal is the official publication of The Indian Society of Hematology & Blood Transfusion.
