Distinct EphB4-mediated mechanisms of apoptotic and resistance to dasatinib in human chronic myeloid leukemia and K562 cell lines.
Leukemia Research 2017 December
OBJECTIVE: To determine the role and mechanism of EphB4 in dasatinib (DAS) resistance in advanced chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), we explored the EphB4-mediated apoptotic and matrix microenvironment pathway in human CML and K562 cell lines.
METHOD: Heparinized bone marrow samples were obtained from enrolled five patients (identified as A to E and visits identified by number) at initial diagnosis (A1-E1) and in the DAS-resistance advanced phase (A2-E2). Meanwhile, highly DAS-resistant cells, named K562-R cells, were obtained from K562-W cells with increasing concentrations of DAS. Stable under-expressing EphB4 cells (K562-R-EphB4-sh) were obtained from K562-R cells by RNA interference. K562-W, K562-R and K562-R-EphB4-sh cells (108 ) were respectively injected subcutaneously on the dorsal surface of BALB/C female nude mice to establish the xenografts models.
RESULT: The mRNA/protein of EphB4 was overexpressed in the DAS-resistant A2-E2 in comparison with the A1-E1 human cell lines. Further, compared with K562-R cells, the expressions of EphB4 and p-Rac1/Cdc42 protein/mRNA were significantly downregulated in K562-R-EphB4-sh cells (P<0.01). K562-R cells showed the highest DAS resistance (IC50 10.54±0.67μg/ml), but K562-R-EphB4-sh cells became sensitive to DAS (IC50 1.02±0.1μg/ml, P<0.01). The expression of EphB4/p-RhoA/MCL-1 protein was gradually increased in the stimulating of EphrinB2-Fc, which partly made K562-R-EphB4-sh cells restore sensitivity to DAS (4.18±0.30μg/ml). Meanwhile, the K562-R-EphB4-sh xenografts group had relatively good efficacy compared to K562-R xenografts nude mice receiving the same dose of DAS. The analysis of xenografts tissue also suggested parallel results with the overexpression of EphB4/RhoA/ROCK1/PTEN/MCL-1 in K562-R xenografts, which decreased in the A2-R-EphB4-sh xenografts (P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONS: The present study found that a new DAS resistance pathway of EphB4 overexpression was triggered by EphrinB2-Fc, which induced the resistance to DAS by activating RhoA/ROCK1/PTEN/MCL-1 signaling.
