6-Thioguanine-induced growth arrest in 6-mercaptopurine-resistant human leukemia cells.

Abstract:

:The thiopurines 6-thioguanine (6TG) and 6-mercaptopurine (6MP) are cytotoxic to proliferating cells by a mechanism involving incorporation into DNA via the purine salvage pathway, and resistance to these agents can be conferred by lack of the salvage pathway enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase. However, human and murine hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase-deficient leukemia cell lines have been shown to respond to 6TG by growth arrest and differentiation by a mechanism apparently not involving incorporation of 6TG into DNA. If so, leukemia cells resistant to 6MP should still respond to 6TG by growth arrest via an undescribed epigenetic mechanism. To test this, polyclonal 6MP-resistant variants were produced from three human leukemia cell lines, HL-60, U937, and CCRF-CEM. Treatment of both sensitive and resistant cells with 6TG induced growth arrest. The effect of 6TG in the 6MP-sensitive HL-60 and U937 cells was associated with significant loss of viability and DNA fragmentation. In contrast, the 6TG-treated 6MP-resistant cells exhibited a slower decline in viability and no DNA fragmentation. To identify the mechanism by which 6TG may induce growth arrest, tRNA was isolated from 6MP-resistant cells cultured for 48 h with 6TG. 6TG was found to be incorporated into tRNAs normally containing queuine in the anticodon wobble position. These studies may provide a basis for the development of new therapeutic regimens for the treatment of leukemia.
