ACP1 genotye was determined by DNA analysis as previously Abstract described [12]. Chi square test of Independence and Odds Ratio analysis were carried out by SPSS programs [14]. We have previously observed that high activity ACP1 (Acid Phosphatase locus 1) genotypes are more frequent in endometriosis. The number of subjects is not the same for all clinical manifestations considered due to lack of reliable information for some manifestations. ACP1 encodes for cytosolic Low Molecular Weight Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (cLMWPTP), an enzyme present in all tissue that is composed by two isoforms that have different biochemical properties, Results different concentration among genotypes and probably different Table 2 shows the proportion of high activity *C/*A and *C/*B functions in the cell.

  • Current Views on the Interplay Between Tyrosine Kinases and Phosphatases in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
    cancers Review Current Views on the Interplay between Tyrosine Kinases and Phosphatases in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Christian Boni and Claudio Sorio * Department of Medicine, General Pathology Division, University of Verona, 37134 Verona, Italy; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-045-802-7688 Simple Summary: The chromosomal alteration t(9;22) generating the BCR-ABL1 fusion protein represents the principal feature that distinguishes some types of leukemia. An increasing number of articles have focused the attention on the relevance of protein phosphatases and their potential role in the control of BCR-ABL1-dependent or -independent signaling in different areas related to the biology of chronic myeloid leukemia. Herein, we discuss how tyrosine and serine/threonine protein phosphatases may interact with protein kinases, in order to regulate proliferative signal cascades, quiescence and self-renewals on leukemic stem cells, and drug-resistance, indicating how BCR-ABL1 can (directly or indirectly) affect these critical cells behaviors. We provide an updated review of the literature on the function of protein phosphatases and their regulation mechanism in chronic myeloid leukemia. Abstract: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by BCR- ABL1 oncogene expression. This dysregulated protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) is known as the principal driver of the disease and is targeted by tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).

  • The Role of Protein-Tyrosine Phosphatases for Sensitivity and Resistance of CML-Cells to Tyrosine-Kinase Inhibitors
    The role of protein-tyrosine phosphatases for sensitivity and resistance of CML-cells to tyrosine-kinase inhibitors Dissertation zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades „doctor rerum naturalium“ (Dr. rer. nat.) vorgelegt dem Rat der Fakultät für Biowissenschaften der Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena von Diplom Biochemikerin Julia Drube geboren am 23. November 1982 in Trier Tag der öffentlichen Verteidigung 29.05.2018 Gutachter 1. apl. Prof. Dr. Frank-Dietmar Böhmer (Jena, Deutschland) 2. PD Dr. Christian Kosan (Jena, Deutschland) 3. Prof. Dr. Wiljan J. A. J. Hendriks (Nijmegen, Niederlande) I Zusammenfassung Die Chronisch myeloische Leukämie (CML) ist eine Krankheit des hämatopoetischen Systems, welche durch die Expression von BCR-ABL1 ausgelöst wird. Dieses Onkoprotein ist eine konstitutiv aktive Protein-Tyrosinkinase (PTK), welche in Zellen Signalwege anschaltet, die unkontrolliertes Wachstum und Überleben steuern. Aus diesem Grund kann die CML mit spezifischen Tyrosinkinase-Inhibitoren (TKI) behandelt werden, die die Funktion von BCR-ABL1 hemmen. Imatinib, der erste TKI der in der Klinik Anwendung fand, hat die Therapie der CML revolutioniert: Die Patienten hatten gute Ansprechraten und viele ein gutes Langzeitüberleben mit vergleichsweise wenig Nebenwirkungen. Die Einführung von Nilotinib, eines noch potenteren Zweit-Generationen-TKI führte zu einem weiter verbesserten Wirkprofil mit schnellerem und tieferem Ansprechen. Ein Teil der Patienten wird voraussichtlich die Therapie absetzen können und trotzdem in therapiefreier Remission bleiben. Gegenstand aktueller klinischen Studien ist die Optimierung der Therapie und die genauere Untersuchung der Voraussetzungen für ein erfolgreiches Absetzen der TKI. Es ist bereits bekannt, dass ein besonders schnelles Erreichen einer anhaltenden, tiefen molekularen Remission sich günstig auf eine funktionelle Heilung auswirkt. Aus diesem Grund ist es von großem Interesse, die molekularen Mechanismen besser zu verstehen, welche das Erreichen der tiefen molekularen Remission beeinflussen.

  • Inhibition of Dual-Specificity Phosphatase 26 by Ethyl-3,4-Dephostatin: Ethyl-3,4-Dephostatin As a Multiphosphatase Inhibitor
    ORIGINAL ARTICLES College of Pharmacy, Chung-Ang University, Seoul, Republic of Korea Inhibition of dual-specificity phosphatase 26 by ethyl-3,4-dephostatin: Ethyl-3,4-dephostatin as a multiphosphatase inhibitor HUIYUN SEO, SAYEON CHO Received September 30, 2015, accepted November 6, 2015 Sayeon Cho, Ph.D., College of Pharmacy, Chung-Ang University, Seoul 156-756, Republic of Korea [email protected] Pharmazie 71: 196–200 (2016) doi: 10.1691/ph.2016.5803 Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) regulate protein function by dephosphorylating phosphorylated proteins in many signaling cascades and some of them have been targets for drug development against many human diseases. There have been many reports that some chemical inhibitors could regulate particular phosphatases. However, there was no extensive study on specificity of inhibitors towardss phosphatases. We investigated the effects of ethyl-3,4-dephostatin, a potent inhibitor of five PTPs including PTP-1B and Src homology-2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1), on thirteen other PTPs using in vitro phosphatase assays. Of them, dual-specificity protein phosphatase 26 (DUSP26), which inhibits mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and p53 tumor suppressor and is known to be overexpressed in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, was inhibited by ethyl- 3,4-dephostatin in a concentration-dependent manner. Kinetic studies with ethyl-3,4-dephostatin and DUSP26 revealed competitive inhibition, suggesting that ethyl-3,4-dephostatin binds to the catalytic site of DUSP26 like other substrate PTPs. Moreover, ethyl-3,4-dephostatin protects DUSP26-mediated dephosphorylation of p38, a member of the MAPK family, and p53. Taken together, these results suggest that ethyl-3,4-dephostatin functions as a multiphosphatase inhibitor and is useful as a therapeutic agent for cancers overexpressing DUSP26.
