ANP32B suppresses B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia through activation of PU.1 in mice.

ABSTRACT: ANP32B, a member of the acidic leucine-rich nuclear phosphoprotein 32 kDa (ANP32) family of proteins, is critical for normal development because its constitutive knockout mice are perinatal lethal. It is also shown that ANP32B acts as a tumor-promoting gene in some kinds of cancer such as breast cancer and chronic myelogenous leukemia. Herein, we observe that ANP32B is lowly expressed in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) patients, which correlates with poor prognosis. Furthermore, we utilized the N-myc or BCR-ABL^p190 -induced B-ALL mouse model to investigate the role of ANP32B in B-ALL development. Intriguingly, conditional deletion of Anp32b in hematopoietic cells significantly promotes leukemogenesis in two B-ALL mouse models. Mechanistically, ANP32B interacts with purine rich box-1 (PU.1) and enhances the transcriptional activity of PU.1 in B-ALL cells. Overexpression of PU.1 dramatically suppresses B-ALL progression, and highly expressed PU.1 significantly reverses the accelerated leukemogenesis in Anp32b-deficient mice. Collectively, our findings identify ANP32B as a suppressor gene and provide novel insight into B-ALL pathogenesis.

Project description:T‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‑ALL) is a common pediatric malignancy, characterized by the abnormal presence of immature T‑cell progenitors. Conventional treatments for T‑ALL fail to prevent or cure the disease, with a high‑risk of recurrence after the first remission. Thus, medical options are in demand to develop novel therapies for patients suffering with T‑ALL. Niclosamide, a traditional oral anti‑helminthic drug, has been reported to be a potential anticancer agent that regulates intracellular signaling pathways. Few studies have yet investigated the effects of niclosamide on the development of T‑ALL. Here, the present study aimed to investigate the anti‑leukemia effects of niclosamide on T‑ALL. We first hypothesized that the suppressive effects of niclosamide on the tumor growth of T‑ALL are exerted by regulating autophagy and apoptosis. Following niclosamide treatment, T‑ALL cell viability was evaluated using MTT assay, and apoptosis with Annexin V/propidium iodide staining. In T‑ALL cells treated with niclosamide, changes in apoptosis‑ and autophagy‑related proteins were analyzed by western blotting. In addition, in an in vivo model, T‑ALL xenograft mice were used to study the anti‑leukemia effects of niclosamide. The results showed that niclosamide significantly reduced the viability of Jurkat and CCRF‑CEM T‑ALL cells in both a dose‑ and time‑dependent manner. Niclosamide significantly activated the early and late phases of apoptosis in Jurkat (at 2 µM) and CCRF‑CEM cells (at 1 µM). Furthermore, niclosamide upregulated protein expression of cleaved caspase‑3 and LC3B, while downregulated those of Bcl‑2 and p62, in a dose‑dependent manner in both Jurkat and CCRF‑CEM cells. The in vivo results showed that niclosamide treatment significantly suppressed tumor growth and the disease progression in T‑ALL xenograft mice by activating cleaved caspase‑3 and LC3B. We conclude that niclosamide plays an anti‑leukemia role, and that it represents a novel approach for the treatment of T‑ALL.
