Clinical Significance of ABCB1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Comprehensive Study.

ABSTRACT: ABCB1 is a member of the ATP binding cassette transporter family and high ABCB1 activity is considered as a poor prognostic factor in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with intensive chemotherapy, its direct relation with drug resistance remains unclear. We evaluated ABCB1 activity in relation with clinical parameters and treatment response to standard chemotherapy in 321 patients with de novo AML. We assessed multiple clinical relationships of ABCB1 activity-ex vivo drug resistance, gene expression, and the ABCB1 inhibitor quinine were evaluated. ABCB1 activity was observed in 58% of AML and was linked to low white blood cell count, high expression of CD34, absence of FLT3-ITD, and absence of mutant NPM1. Moreover, ABCB1 activity was associated with worse overall- and event-free survival. However, ABCB1 activity did not directly lead to ex vivo drug resistance to anthracyclines. We found that ABCB1 was highly correlated with gene expressions of BAALC, CD34, CD200, and CD7, indicating that ABCB1 expression maybe a passenger characteristic of high-risk AML. Furthermore, ABCB1 was inversely correlated to HOX cluster genes and CD33. Thus, low ABCB1 AML patients benefited specifically from anti-CD33 treatment by gemtuzumab ozogamicin in addition to standard chemotherapy. We showed prognostic importance of ABCB1 gene expression, protein expression, and activity. Furthermore, ABCB1 was not directly linked to drug resistance, ABCB1 inhibition did not improve outcome of high ABCB1 AML patients and thus high ABCB1 may represent a passenger characteristic of high-risk AML.

Project description:BACKGROUND:microRNA-381 is dysregulated in a variety of cancers. However, its clinical significance in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is still unclear. The purpose of this study was to detect the expression level of miR-381 in pediatric AML patients and to explore its potential clinical significance. METHODS:The levels of miR-381 in bone marrow and serum of 102 pediatric AML patients were measured by quantitative real-time polymorperase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The diagnostic value of serum miR-381 in pediatric AML patients was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. A Chi square test was used to analyze the relationship between serum miR-381 and the clinical characteristics of patients. Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier evaluated the prognostic value of serum miR-381 in patients. Finally, the proliferation of the cells was analyzed by the CCK-8 assay. RESULTS:Compared with healthy controls, the levels of miR-381 in serum and bone marrow of pediatric AML patients were significantly decreased (P?<?0.001). ROC curve showed that miR-381 could distinguish pediatric AML cases from normal controls. At the same time, the downregulation of miR-381 was associated with M7 in the French-American-British (FAB) classifications and unfavorable cytogenetic risks (P?<?0.05). Low serum miR-381 levels were associated with poor overall survival of pediatric AML (log-rank test, P?=?0.011) and poor relapse-free survival (log-rank test, P?=?0.004). Cox regression analysis confirmed that reduced serum miR-381 was an independent predictor of poor prognosis in AML (HR?=?3.794, 95% CI 1.3633-10.559, P?=?0.011). In addition, low expression of miR-381 significantly reduced the proliferation of cells (P?<?0.05). CONCLUSION:All experimental results confirm that miR-381 has reduced bone marrow and serum expression in pediatric AML, and low levels of serum miR-381 have certain diagnostic and prognostic value in pediatric AML and may be a potential therapeutic target for AML.
