Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of boanmycin, a clinical drug used for head and neck cancers, in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), particularly in venetoclax-resistant AML cells.
The cell viability assay was conducted to measure the inhibitory effects of boanmycin on the AML cell lines and patient primary cells using the CCK8 reagent. The colony formation assay was performed to evaluate the colony formation ability of HL60 and venetoclax-resistant HL60 (HL60-res) cells with or without boanmycin treatment. Flow cytometry was performed to detect cell apoptosis level, and Western blot was used to assess changes in apoptosis-related proteins.
Our findings reveal that boanmycin significantly inhibits AML cell proliferation and colony formation, and induces apoptosis. Importantly, boanmycin exhibits substantial inhibitory effects on venetoclax-resistant cells, and suppresses the proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMCs) derived from newly diagnosed and relapsed AML patients.
Boanmycin may overcome venetoclax resistance and offer therapeutic benefits for patients with venetoclax-resistant AML.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
