Spicamycin is a potent inducer of differentiation of human myeloid leukemia cells (HL-60) and murine myeloid leukemia cells (M1). One of the spicamycin derivatives, KRN5500, shows a broad spectrum of antitumor activity against human tumor xenografts in nude mice. In this study, we first investigated the differentiation efficacy of spicamycin and KRN5500 in HL-60 and acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line, NB4, and found that low concentrations of both compounds induced differentiation to a small extent in both cell lines, but markedly induced apoptosis in NB4 cells. Further investigation in a myeloid leukemia cell line, NKM-1, a lymphoma cell line, Daudi, and a multiple myeloma cell line, NOP-1, showed that high concentrations of both compounds also induced apoptosis in these cells. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) determined by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay showed that myeloid cells were more sensitive to both compounds than lymphoid cells, and spicamycin was more potent than KRN5500. Western blot analysis of Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and Bax expression and immunofluorescence analysis of promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein indicated that apoptosis induced by spicamycin and KRN5500 was associated with down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression and modulation of PML protein. Thus, spicamycin and KRN5500 may be useful for the treatment of myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine if KRN5500, a spicamycin derivative with a unique acyl tail, would induce programmed cell death (PCD) of myeloid leukemia cell lines and cryopreserved leukemic blasts from newly diagnosed children with acute leukemia (AL). Cells were incubated with varying concentrations (0-5 ng/ml) of KRN5500 and the percent PCD determined using a modified in situ end labeling (ISEL) technique with Klenow fragment. The percent PCD was calculated using the formula: Percent PCD (% PCD)=[number of apoptotic cells/(viable cells+apoptotic cells)]x100. DMSO (0.30% w/v) was added to the cells in culture as the positive control for PCD; the negative control was media or albumin. KRN5500 increased the amount of PCD significantly in all five of the tested cell lines; U937 41+/-1.8%, KG1a 40+/-0.3%, HEL 14+/-2.2%, HL-60 41+/-0. 9%, K562 36+/-2% (mean PCD+/-SD). Patient blasts exposed to KRN5500 had an increase in PCD when exposed to 2 ng/ml of agent from 2 to 8 h; acute myeloid leukemia patients 7.5+/-0.5% at 2 h to 43.5+/-1.6% at 8 h, and acute lymphocytic leukemia patients rose from 12.4+/-3.8% at 2 h to 29.9+/-11.6% after 8 h (mean+/-SE). Overall the PCD for the patient samples was 3.7 versus 28+/-4% at 2 and 8 h, respectively. PCD was proportional to the dose of KRN5500 and incubation time. Further pre-clinical and clinical studies are required.  相似文献

Since the establishment of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) differentiation therapy, the prognosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) has improved, and APL has become a curable subtype of acute myelocytic leukemia. Complete remission can be achieved with ATRA alone, but disease-free survival is still too short because of relapse. To overcome this drawback, ATRA has been used in combination with chemotherapeutic agents such as 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine (araC) and daunorubicin. However, growth of the APL cell lines NB4 and HT93 is less sensitive to araC than to that of other myeloid leukemia cell lines such as HL-60 and U937. ATRA effectively induced granulocytic differentiation of NB4 and HT93 cells, whereas araC did not, even in a high concentration. A cytidine deaminase-resistant analogue of araC, 1-(2-deoxy-2-methylene-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)cytidine (DMDC), inhibited the growth of NB4 and HT-93 cells and was also effective on HL-60 and U937 cells. The promyelocytic cell lines were induced to differentiate by DMDC and other cytidine deaminase-resistant analogues. Among them, DMDC was the most potent in inducing differentiation and inhibiting the growth of NB4 cells. The ATRA-induced differentiation of NB4 cells was not augmented by araC, whereas combined treatment with ATRA and DMDC had more than additive effects in inducing the differentiation of NB4 cells. Similar results were observed in a primary culture of leukemia cells that had been freshly isolated from APL patients. These results suggest that DMDC may play a role in the treatment of APL.  相似文献

Various compounds active in promoting in vitro differentiation of certain murine leukemia cell lines (Friend erythroleukemia cells and mouse myeloid leukemia cells) were tested for their capacity to induce differentiation of HL-60 cells, a human promyelocytic leukemia cell line capable of terminally differentiating in vitro to functionally mature granulocytes. Polar planar compounds including hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA), certain purines (particularly hypoxanthine), and actinomycin-D induced morphological and functional (as assessed by the capacity to reduce NBT dye) differentiation of HL-60. In contrast, hemin, ouabain, prostaglandin E1, X-irradiation, dexamethasone and some other anti-leukemic chemotherapeutic agents induced little if any significant differentiation of HL-60 cells. These results, together with previous observations with murine leukemia cells, suggest that the human HL-60 cells share common cellular target sites for the inducing action of polar planar compounds, hypoxanthine and actinomycin-D with some murine leukemic cells. In contrast, hemin, ouabain and prostaglandin E1 may be specific for mouse erythroleukemia cells, while X-irradiation and chemotherapeutic agents induce differentiation of both types (erythroid and myeloid) of mouse leukemic cells, but have little effect on HL-60 cells.  相似文献

A metal chelator, diphenylthiocarbazone (dithizone), has been reported to induce differentiation and apoptosis of the human myeloid leukemia cell line HL-60, however, very little is known about the mechanism of dithizone-induced apoptosis. Here, we report for the first time that dithizone can induce inhibition of cellular growth of retinoic acid (RA)-sensitive NB4 and RA-resistant UF-1 APL cells via induction of apoptosis but not differentiation. Treatment of NB4 cells with dithizone markedly-induced apoptosis, which was associated with the loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (Delta Psi(m)) and activation of caspase-3 and -9. Further investigation of the RA-resistant UF-1 APL cells showed that dithizone-induced apoptosis to a lesser extent. However, neither dithizone alone nor in combination with all-trans RA induced the expression of myeloid differentiation antigen CD11b. Concomitantly, the degradation of PML/RARalpha fusion protein was not observed after treatment with dithizone alone, and the degradation was not enhanced by the combination of dithizone and all-trans RA. We conclude that dithizone, a metal chelator, induced apoptosis without differentiation in APL cells in association with Delta Psi(m) collapse and caspase-3 and -9 activation.  相似文献

Cotylenin A has differentiation-inducing activity in human myeloid leukemia cell lines and leukemic cells that were freshly isolated from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients in primary culture. Injection of the human promyelocytic leukemia cell line NB4 into SCID mice resulted in the death of all mice due to leukemia. Administration of cotylenin A significantly prolonged the survival of mice inoculated with NB4 cells. In an in vivo analysis, cotylenin A induced the differentiation of leukemia cells in a retinoid-resistant leukemia model. Cotylenin A may be useful for differentiation therapy of retinoid-resistant leukemia.  相似文献

KN-62, an inhibitor of the calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs), enhances the terminal differentiation of retinoic acid sensitive human myeloid leukemia cell lines. In an effort to identify additional CaMK inhibitors that exhibit more potent activity in triggering leukemia cell differentiation, we synthesized 45 analogues of KN-62 and determined their ability to induce HL-60 cell differentiation. Sixteen of these novel analogues exhibited significant differentiation-inducing activity, and one analogue, AS-004, was five times more potent than KN-62 in inhibiting proliferation and inducing differentiation of HL-60 cells. Such KN-62 analogues and/or related compounds may prove useful in treating promyelocytic leukemia.  相似文献

All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induces differentiation of NB4 and HL-60 leukemia cells, but not R4 and HL-60/Res cells. Three agents used in cancer therapy, doxorubicin (Dox), arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) and paclitaxel, induce apoptosis, but not differentiation, in all of these cell lines. The induction of apoptosis by these agents is decreased in ATRA-pretreated NB4 and HL-60 cells, but not in ATRA-pretreated R4 and HL-60/Res cells. The level of Bcl-2 protein is decreased by ATRA treatment in NB4, HL-60 and HL-60/Res cells. The level of Mcl-1 protein is increased by ATRA treatment in NB4 and R4 cells, but not in HL-60 and HL-60/Res cells. Bfl-1/A1 mRNA is not expressed in these cell lines, however, its expression is markedly induced by ATRA treatment in NB4 and HL-60 cells, but not in R4 or HL-60/Res cells, which correlates with inhibition of apoptosis. Inhibiting Bfl-1/A1 mRNA upregulation in ATRA-pretreated NB4 cells using small interfering RNA (siRNA) partly recovers cell sensitivity to Dox-induced apoptosis. These data demonstrate that ATRA induction of Bfl-1/A1 in differentiated NB4 and HL-60 cells contributes to a loss of sensitivity to chemotherapy-induced apoptosis.  相似文献

The human promyelocytic leukemia cell line known as HL-60 can be triggered to mature to functional granulocytes and/or macrophages after exposure to a variety of compounds. The findings have generated enthusiasm for possible therapy of leukemia using compounds that induce leukemic cell differentiation. We investigated whether five compounds known to trigger HL-60 differentiation to granulocytes could trigger the maturation of blast cells from 12 patients with myelogenous leukemia. Maturation was judged by morphology, superoxide production, phagocytosis, expression of Fc receptors, and development of alpha-napthyl acetate esterase activity. The blast cells from most patients showed little morphological, histological or functional maturation after exposure to the various compounds as compared to the blast cells cultured without the compounds. Actinomycin was able to induce significant maturation of leukemic cells of some patients when maturation was analyzed by several statistical methods. Our study suggests that many compounds which trigger differentiation of promyelocytic leukemia cells may not trigger differentiation of less mature myeloid leukemic cells.  相似文献

The involvement of histone lysine methyltransferases (HMT) in carcinogenesis is not well understood. Here, we describe a dose-dependent growth and survival inhibitory effects of BIX-01294, a specific inhibitor of euchromatic HMT2, in promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 and NB4 cells. BIX-01294 combined with all-trans retinoic acid or together with histone deacetylase and DNA methyltransferase inhibitors enhanced cell differentiation to granulocytes and induced cell line-specific changes in the expression of cell cycle-, survival- and differentiation regulating genes and proteins in association with histone modification state. Our results suggest that targeting EHMT2 may be of therapeutical benefits in myeloid leukemia.  相似文献

Neuroblastoma is the most common solid tumor of infancy and is believed to result from impaired differentiation of neuronal crest embryonal cells. The promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML)-nuclear body is a cellular structure that is disrupted during the pathogenesis of acute promyelocytic leukemia, a disease characterized by impaired myeloid cell differentiation. During the course of studies to examine the composition and function of PML-nuclear bodies, we observed that the human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y lacked these structures and that the absence of PML-nuclear bodies was a feature of N- and I-type, but not S-type, neuroblastoma cell lines. Induction of neuroblastoma cell differentiation with 5-bromo-2'deoxyuridine, all-trans-retinoic acid, or IFN-gamma induced PML-nuclear body formation. PML-nuclear bodies were not detected in tissue sections prepared from undifferentiated neuroblastomas but were present in neuroblasts in differentiating tumors. Expression of PML in neuroblastoma cells restored PML-nuclear bodies, enhanced responsiveness to all-trans-retinoic acid, and induced cellular differentiation. Pharmacological therapies that increase PML expression may prove to be important components of combined modalities for the treatment of neuroblastoma.  相似文献

Treatment with arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)) by inducing apoptosis and partial differentiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells results in clinical remission in APL patients resistant to chemotherapy and all-trans-retinoic acid. As(2)O(3) (iAs(III)) is methylated in the liver to mono- and dimethylated metabolites, including methylarsonic acid, methylarsonous acid, dimethylarsinic acid, and dimethylarsinous acid. Methylated trivalent metabolites that are potent cytotoxins, genotoxins, and enzyme inhibitors may contribute to the in vivo therapeutic effect of iAs(III). Therefore, we compared the potency of iAs(III) and trivalent metabolites using chemical precursors of methylarsonous acid and dimethylarsinous acid to induce differentiation, growth inhibition, and apoptosis. Methylarsine oxide (MAs(III)O) and to a lesser extent iododimethylarsine were more potent growth inhibitors and apoptotic inducers than iAs(III) in NB4 cells, an APL cell line. This was also observed in K562 human leukemia, lymphoma cell lines, and in primary culture of chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells, but not human bone marrow progenitor cells. Apoptosis was associated with greater hydrogen peroxide accumulation and inhibition of glutathione peroxidase activity. MAs(III)O, in contrast to iAs(III), did not induce PML-retinoic acid receptor alpha degradation, or restore PML nuclear bodies or differentiation in NB4 cells. In a cocultivation experiment, hepatoma-derived HepG2 cells, but not NB4 cells, methylate radiolabeled iAs(III). Methylated metabolites released from HepG2 cells are preferentially accumulated by NB4 cells. This experimental model suggests that in vivo hepatic methylation of iAs(III) may contribute to As(2)O(3)-induced apoptosis but not differentiation of APL cells. MAs(III)O as an apoptotic inducer should be considered in the treatment of other hematologic malignancies like lymphoma.  相似文献
