Abstract:
PURPOSE:In our previous publication, we have shown that dihydroartemisinin could significantly inhibit the growth of CML K562 cells by its anti-proliferative and inducing apoptotic effects. Given the pivotal effect of Bcr/Abl tyrosine kinase and its downstream signal factors on CML cell proliferation and survival, we extend our study to investigate the effect of DHA on Bcr/Abl and related signal factors to further illuminate the possible mechanisms of the effect of DHA on CML cells. METHODS:The expression of Bcr/Abl was analyzed with PCR and Western blotting methods at both mRNA and protein levels. Measurement of protein expression and tyrosine phosphorylation activity of Bcr/Abl, AKT, ERK1/2, NF-κB and cytochrome c were performed with Western blotting and immunoprecipitation methods. Using the activity kits analyzed the activity of caspase 9 and caspase 3. RESULTS:The treatment with DHA results in a significant suppression on Bcr/Abl expression and leads to a concentration-dependent reduction on the Bcr/Abl tyrosine activity. Moreover, it also results in a strong influence on the downstream signal factors of Bcr/Abl, which includes inhibition of tyrosine kinase activity of AKT and ERK1/2, suppression of NF-κB protein expression, promotion of the cytochrome c release and the consequential activation of caspase 3/9 in CML K562 cells. CONCLUSIONS:Together with our previous report, our data show that the growth inhibitory effect of DHA on CML cells might be due to the influence on Bcr/Abl expression and its downstream signal factors. DHA might be a potential novel anti-CML drug candidate and worthy of further study.
