Aberrant expression of GOLM1 protects ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma from apoptosis by enhancing BCL-XL stability.

ABSTRACT: Golgi membrane protein 1 (GOLM1) is aberrantly expressed in many types of solid tumors and contributes to cancer development; however, its role in hematopoietic and lymphoid neoplasms remains unknown. Here, we report that GOLM1 was significantly upregulated in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), particularly in anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK+) ALCL. Mechanistically, the expression of GOLM1 was induced by nucleophosmin-ALK in both ALK-transformed T cells and ALCL cell lines through AKT/mTOR pathway. Knockdown of GOLM1 expression led to a reduction in the growth and viability of ALCL cells with increased spontaneous apoptosis, whereas ectopic expression of GOLM1 protected ALCL cells from apoptosis induced by staurosporine treatment. Moreover, GOLM1 directly interacted with B-cel
