RUNX1 knockdown and BET protein proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) exerts potent lethal activity against mtRUNX1 AML cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Bromodomain extraterminal protein (BETP) inhibitors transcriptionally repress oncoproteins which undermines the growth and survival of AML cells. However, BETi treatment causes accumulation of BETPs, associated with reversible binding and incomplete inhibition of BRD4, which potentially compromises the activity of BETi in AML cells. Unlike BETi, BET-PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimera) ARV-825 recruits and utilize an E3-ubiquitin ligase to effectively degrade BETPs in AML cells. BET-PROTACs induce more apoptosis than BETi of mtRUNX1 AML cells. BET-PROTAC treatment induced more perturbations in the mRNA and protein expressions than BETi. It was noted that treatment with BETi or BET-PROTAC caused significant and sustained depletion of RUNX1 in AML cells. We also determined the effects of global depletion of RUNX1 in mtRUNX1 expressing AML OCI-AML5 cells. We observed an overlap in the signature of RUNX1 knockdown by shRNA with that of OTX015 and ARV-825 in OCI-AML5 cells.
