Salidroside inhibits chronic myeloid leukemia cell proliferation and induces apoptosis by regulating the miR-140-5p/wnt5a/β-catenin axis.

ABSTRACT: Salidroside, an active ingredient of Rhodiola rosea, exhibits antitumor effects in various types of cancer. However, the role of salidroside in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has not been elucidated. In the presents study, cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 assay, while apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR analysis was used to examine the expression levels of miR-140-5p in human CML cell lines. The expression levels of apoptosis and cell cycle-associated proteins and of the wnt5a/β-catenin signaling pathway were determined by western blot analysis. Bioinformatic analysis and luciferase reporter assays were employed to investigate the association between miR-140-5p and wnt5a. The results revealed that exposure of CML cells to salidroside (80 µM) inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis. In addition, salidroside treatment led to the upregulation of miR-140-5p expression. Furthermore, the inhibition of wnt5a/β-catenin signaling pathway and the pro-apoptotic effects induced by salidroside were attenuated by miR-140-5p silencing. Notably, wnt5a was revealed to be a direct target of miR-140-5p. The present findings indicated that salidroside exerted anti-CML effects through regulating miR-140-5p by suppressing the wnt5a/β-catenin signaling pathway. The present study provided evidence of the therapeutic role of salidroside in CML.

Project description:BackgroundAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is initiated and maintained by a unique, small subset of leukemia stem cells (LSCs). LSCs are characterized by unrestricted self-renewal and contribute to the malignancy of leukemia. Aberrant protein fucosylation is associated with AML progression. However, it is still less understood that the miR-29b/Sp1/FUT4 crosstalk involved in the fucosylation-mediated LSCs malignancy in AML.MethodsAML cell lines were sorted by magnetic microbeads to obtain the CD34?+?CD38- sub-population. The key biomarkers for LSCs were identified by flow cytometry. Fucosyltransferase genes were screened by qRT-PCR, and FUT4 was focused. Effect of FUT4 on LSCs malignancy was determined by CCK8 assay, sphere formation assay, immunofluorescence staining, apoptosis and in vivo xenografts experiments. The linkage of FUT4 promoter and Sp1 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. ChIP-PCR assay was used to show the directly binding of Sp1 and FUT4 promoter. Activity of Wnt//?-catenin pathway was determined by western blot. Overall survival curves were diagrammed by Kaplan-Meier analysis.ResultsHere, the expressional profiles of 11 fucosyltransferase genes were different comparing LSCs and non-LSCs of KG-1a and MOLM13 cells, whereas CD34?+?CD38- cells exhibited higher expression of FUT4. Functionally, alteration of FUT4 in CD34?+?CD38- cells modulated LSCs malignant behaviors both in vitro and in vivo. Transcriptional inhibitor actinomycin D (Act D) or translational inhibitor cycloheximide (CHX) prevented LSCs progression, and Sp1 was identified as the efficient regulator of FUT4 transcription. Moreover, miR-29b directly affected the binding of Sp1 and FUT4 promoter region, which further mediated LSCs proliferation, apoptosis and drug-resistance through fucosylated-CD44 via activation of Wnt/?-catenin pathway. Clinically, Sp1 and FUT4 were up-regulated and positively correlated with poor overall survival of AML patients.ConclusionThese data indicated that miR-29b/Sp1/FUT4 axis promoted the malignant behaviors of LSCs by regulating fucosylated CD44 via Wnt/?-catenin pathway. Identifying LSCs surface markers and targeting LSCs were important for the development of potential therapies in AML.
