Characterization of the Newly Established Homoharringtonine- (HHT-) Resistant Cell Lines and Mechanisms of Resistance.

ABSTRACT: Homoharringtonine- (HHT-) based HHT, aclarubicin, and cytarabine (HAA) induction regimen is the first-line therapy for nonelder acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients in China. However, drug resistance is a new challenge, and little attention has been devoted to excavating resistant mechanisms. This study used the classic method to construct six HHT-resistant cell lines with a gradually increasing resistance index (RI) to discover HHT drug resistance mechanisms dynamically. After HHT resistance, the cell growth rate decreased, cell cycle delayed, and P-glycoprotein (p-gp, CD243) expression levels increased. Furthermore, we explored the changes in transcriptomics between HHT-sensitive and HHT-resistant cells using RNA-sequence. Through Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), Gene Ont
