The t(15;17) translocation, found in 95% of acute promyelocytic leukemia, encodes a promyelocytic leukemia (PML)-retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARalpha) fusion protein. Complete remission of acute promyelocytic leukemia can be obtained by treating patients with all-trans retinoic acid, and PML-RARalpha plays a major role in mediating retinoic acid effects in leukemia cells. A main model proposed for acute promyelocytic leukemia is that PML-RARalpha exerts its oncogenic effects by repressing the expression of retinoic acid-inducible genes critical to myeloid differentiation. By applying subtraction cloning to acute promyelocytic leukemia cells, we identified a retinoic acid-induced gene, PRAM-1 (PML-RARalpha target gene encoding an Adaptor Molecule-1), which encodes a novel adaptor protein sharing structural homologies with the SLAP-130/fyb adaptor. PRAM-1 is expressed and regulated during normal human myelopoiesis. In U937 myeloid precursor cells, PRAM-1 expression is inhibited by expression of PML-RARalpha in the absence of ligand and de novo superinduced by retinoic acid. PRAM-1 associates with other adaptors, SLP-76 and SKAP-55HOM, in myeloid cell lines and with protein tyrosine kinase lyn. By providing the first evidence that PML-RARalpha dysregulates expression of an adaptor protein, our data open new insights into signaling events that are disrupted during transformation by PML-RARalpha and induced by retinoic acid during de novo differentiation of acute promyelocytic leukemia cells. 相似文献

In acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cells harboring the promyelocytic leukemia retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARalpha) chimeric protein, retinoic acid (RA)-induced differentiation is triggered through a PML-RARalpha signaling resulting in activation of critical target genes. Induced differentiation of APL cells is always preceded by withdrawal from the cell cycle and commitment events leading to terminal differentiation. Here we have identified the human ankyrin repeat-containing protein with a suppressor of cytokine signaling box-2 (ASB-2) cDNA, as a novel RA-induced gene in APL cells. PML-RARalpha strongly enhanced RA-induced ASB-2 mRNA expression. In myeloid leukemia cells, ASB-2 expression induced growth inhibition and chromatin condensation recapitulating early events critical to RA-induced differentiation of APL cells. 相似文献

Leukemia results from the expansion of self-renewing hematopoietic cells that are thought to contain mutations that contribute to disease initiation and progression. Studies of the gene expression profiles of human acute myeloid leukemia samples has allowed their classification based on the presence of translocations and French-American-British subtypes, but it is not yet clear whether their molecular signatures reflect the initiating mutations or mutations acquired during progression. To begin to address this question, we examined the expression profiles of normal murine promyelocyte-enriched samples, nontransformed murine promyelocytes expressing human promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARalpha) fusion gene, and primary acute promyelocytic leukemia cells. The expression profile of nontransformed cells expressing PML-RARalpha was remarkably similar to that of wild-type promyelocytes. In contrast, the expression profiles of fully transformed cells from three acute promyelocytic leukemia model systems were all different, suggesting that the expression signature of acute promyelocytic leukemia cells reflects the genetic changes that contributed to progression. To further evaluate these progression events, we compared two high-penetrance acute promyelocytic leukemia models that both commonly acquire an interstitial deletion of chromosome 2 during progression. The two models exhibited distinct gene expression profiles, suggesting that the dominant molecular signatures of murine acute promyelocytic leukemia can be influenced by several independent progression events. 相似文献

Heparanase is a heparan sulfate-degrading endoglycosidase expressed by mature monocytes and myeloid cells, but not by immature hematopoietic progenitors. Heparanase gene expression is upregulated during differentiation of immature myeloid cells. PML-RARalpha and PLZF-RARalpha fusion gene products associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia abrogate myeloid differentiation and heparanase expression. AML-Eto, a translocation product associated with AML FAB M2, also downregulates heparanase gene expression. The common mechanism that underlines the activity of these three fusion gene products involves the recruitment of histone deacetylase complexes to specific locations within the DNA. We found that retinoic acid that dissociates PML-RARalpha from the DNA, and which is used to treat acute promyelocytic leukemia patients, restores heparanase expression to normal levels in an acute promyelocytic leukemia cell line. The retinoic acid effects were also observed in primary acute promyelocytic leukemia cells and in a retinoic acid-treated acute promyelocytic leukemia patient. Histone deacetylase inhibitor reverses the downregulation of heparanase expression induced by the AML-Eto fusion gene product in M2 type AML. In summary, we have characterized a link between leukomogenic factors and the downregulation of heparanase in myeloid leukemic cells. 相似文献

Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a subtype of acute myeloid leukemia, is the prototype of a cancer that can be cured by differentiation therapy using combined retinoic acid (RA) and chemotherapy. Acute promyelocytic leukemia is caused by chromosomal translocations, which in the large majority of cases generate the prototypic promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic-acid receptor alpha (PML-RARalpha) an oncogenic fusion protein formed from the retinoic-acid receptor alpha and the so-called PML protein. The fusion protein leads to the deregulation of wild type PML and RARalpha function, thus inducing the differentiation block and an altered survival capacity of promyelocytes of affected patients. A plethora of studies have revealed molecular details that account for the oncogenic properties of acute promyelocytic leukemia fusion proteins and the events that contribute to the therapy-induced differentiation and apoptosis of patients' blasts. Illustrating the beneficial mechanisms of action of retinoids for acute promyelocytic leukemia patients this review goes on to discuss a plethora of recently recognized molecular paradigms by which retinoids and rexinoids, alone or in combination with other compounds, regulate growth, differentiation and apoptosis also in non-acute promyelocytic leukemia cells, highlighting their potential as drugs for cancer therapy and prevention. 相似文献

Expression of the PML-retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARalpha) fusion protein is the initiating genetic event for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), but the molecular mechanisms responsible for disease initiation are not yet clear. Several observations have suggested that early myeloid cells are uniquely susceptible to transformation by PML-RARalpha. Recently, we have shown that the early myeloid-specific protease neutrophil elastase is important for APL development in the mouse. To better understand the role of neutrophil elastase for the pathogenesis of APL, we examined the consequences of PML-RARalpha expression in early myeloid cells with or without neutrophil elastase. We found that high-level PML-RARalpha expression was associated with cellular toxicity that was dependent on the expression of neutrophil elastase; a mutant form of PML-RARalpha that resisted neutrophil elastase cleavage was not toxic. When PML-RARalpha was expressed at very low levels in the early myeloid cells of mice, it induced myeloid expansion and delayed myeloid maturation; neutrophil elastase was also required for these activities. The activities of PML-RARalpha in early myeloid cells are therefore strongly influenced by the presence of neutrophil elastase. To assure physiologic relevance, PML-RARalpha functions should be evaluated in neutrophil elastase-expressing early myeloid cells. 相似文献

In acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), the translocation t(15;17) induces a block at the promyelocytic stage of differentiation in an all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA)-responsive manner. Here we report that upon treatment with ATRA, t(15;17) cells (NB4) reveal a very rapid increase in protein level and binding activity of C/EBPbeta, a C/EBP family member, which was not observed in an ATRA-resistant NB4 cell line. We further provide evidence that ATRA mediates a direct increase of C/EBPbeta, only in PML-RARA (promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor alpha)-expressing cells. In addition, transactivation experiments indicate that the PML-RARA fusion protein, but not PML-RARA mutants defective in transactivation, strongly transactivates the C/EBPbeta promoter. These results suggest that PML-RARA mediates ATRA-induced C/EBPbeta expression. Finally, we demonstrate the importance of C/EBPbeta in granulocytic differentiation. We show that not only does C/EBPbeta induce granulocytic differentiation of non-APL myeloid cell lines independent of addition of ATRA or other cytokines, but also that C/EBPbeta induction is required during ATRA-induced differentiation of APL cells. Taken together, C/EBPbeta is an ATRA-dependent PML-RARA target gene involved in ATRA-induced differentiation of APL cells. 相似文献

Neutrophil elastase cleaves PML-RARalpha and is important for the development of acute promyelocytic leukemia in mice 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The fusion protein PML-RARalpha, generated by the t(15;17)(q22;q11.2) translocation associated with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), initiates APL when expressed in the early myeloid compartment of transgenic mice. PML-RARalpha is cleaved in several positions by a neutral serine protease in a human myeloid cell line; purification revealed that the protease is neutrophil elastase (NE). Immunofluorescence localization studies suggested that the cleavage of PML-RARalpha must occur within the cell, and perhaps, within the nucleus. The functional importance of NE for APL development was assessed in NE deficient mice. Greater than 90% of bone marrow PML-RARalpha cleaving activity was lost in the absence of NE, and NE (but not Cathepsin G) deficient animals were protected from APL development. Primary mouse and human APL cells also contain NE-dependent PML-RARalpha cleaving activity. Since NE is maximally produced in promyelocytes, this protease may play a role in APL pathogenesis by facilitating the leukemogenic potential of PML-RARalpha. 相似文献

Human acute promyelocytic leukemias (APLs) are associated with chromosomal translocations that replace the NH2 terminus of wild-type retinoic acid receptor (RAR) alpha with portions of the promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) or promyelocytic leukemia zinc-finger protein (PLZF). The wild-type RARalpha readily forms heterodimers with the retinoid X receptors (RXRs), and these RAR/RXR heterodimers appear to be the principal mediators of retinoid signaling in normal cells. In contrast, PML-RARalpha and PLZF-RARa display an enhanced ability to form homodimers, and this enhanced homodimer formation is believed to contribute to the neoplastic properties of these chimeric oncoproteins. We report here that the DNA recognition specificity of the RXRalpha/RARa heterodimer, which is presumed to be the dominant receptor species in normal cells, differs from that of the PML-RARalpha and PLZF-RARalpha homodimers, which are thought to prevail in the oncogenic cell. We suggest that differences in target gene recognition by the normal and oncogenic RARalpha proteins may contribute to the leukemogenic phenotype. 相似文献

In acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL), arsenic trioxide induces degradation of the fusion protein encoded by the PML-RARA oncogene, differentiation of leukaemic cells and produces clinical remissions. SUMOylation of its PML moiety was previously implicated, but the nature of the degradation pathway involved and the role of PML-RARalpha catabolism in the response to therapy have both remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that arsenic-induced PML SUMOylation triggers its Lys 48-linked polyubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation. When exposed to arsenic, SUMOylated PML recruits RNF4, the human orthologue of the yeast SUMO-dependent E3 ubiquitin-ligase, as well as ubiquitin and proteasomes onto PML nuclear bodies. Arsenic-induced differentiation is impaired in cells transformed by a non-degradable PML-RARalpha SUMOylation mutant or in APL cells transduced with a dominant-negative RNF4, directly implicating PML-RARalpha catabolism in the therapeutic response. We thus identify PML as the first protein degraded by SUMO-dependent polyubiquitination. As PML SUMOylation recruits not only RNF4, ubiquitin and proteasomes, but also many SUMOylated proteins onto PML nuclear bodies, these domains could physically integrate the SUMOylation, ubiquitination and degradation pathways. 相似文献
