  • Dynamic Chemotherapy-Induced Upregulation of CXCR4 Expression: a Mechanism of Therapeutic Resistance in Pediatric AML
    Published OnlineFirst June 10, 2013; DOI: 10.1158/1541-7786.MCR-13-0114 Molecular Cancer Cell Death and Survival Research Dynamic Chemotherapy-Induced Upregulation of CXCR4 Expression: A Mechanism of Therapeutic Resistance in Pediatric AML Edward Allan R. Sison, Emily McIntyre, Daniel Magoon, and Patrick Brown Abstract Cure rates in pediatric acute leukemias remain suboptimal. Overexpression of the cell-surface chemokine receptor CXCR4 is associated with poor outcome in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Certain nonchemotherapeutic agents have been shown to modulate CXCR4 expression and alter leukemia interactions with stromal cells in the bone marrow microenvironment. Because chemotherapy is the mainstay of AML treatment, it was hypothesized that standard cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents induce dynamic changes in leukemia surface CXCR4 expression, and that chemotherapy-induced upregulation of CXCR4 repre- sents a mechanism of acquired therapeutic resistance. Here, it was shown that cell lines variably upregulate CXCR4 with chemotherapy treatment. Those that showed upregulation were differentially protected from chemotherapy- induced apoptosis when cocultured with stroma. The functional effects of chemotherapy-induced CXCR4 up- regulation in an AML cell line (MOLM-14, which harbors consistent upregulated CXCR4) and clinical specimens were explored. Importantly, enhanced stromal-cell derived factor-1a (SDF1A/CXCL12)-mediated chemotaxis and stromal protection from additional chemotherapy-induced apoptosis was found. Furthermore, treatment with plerixafor, a CXCR4 inhibitor, preferentially decreased stromal protection with higher chemotherapy-induced upregulation of surface CXCR4. Thus, increased chemokine receptor CXCR4 expression after treatment with conventional chemotherapy may represent a mechanism of therapeutic resistance in pediatric AML. Implications: CXCR4 may be a biomarker for the stratification and optimal treatment of patients using CXCR4 inhibitors.

With the sustained development of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), significant success has been achieved for preventing and relieving disease activity in RA patients. Unfortunately, some patients still show limited response to DMARDs, which puts forward new requirements for special targets and novel therapies. Understanding the pathogenetic roles of the various molecules in RA could facilitate discovery of potential therapeutic targets and approaches. In this review, both Edited by: existing and emerging targets, including the proteins, small molecular metabolites, and Trine N.

  • Extrinsic Targeting Strategies Against Acute Myeloid Leukemic Stem Cells Noureldien H
    Integrative Cancer Science and Therapeutics Review Article ISSN: 2056-4546 Extrinsic targeting strategies against acute myeloid leukemic stem cells Noureldien H. E. Darwish1,2 and Shaker A. Mousa2* 1Department of Clinical Pathology, Hematology Unit, Mansoura University, Egypt 2The Pharmaceutical Research Institute, Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (ACPHS), USA Abstract Despite advances in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), patients still show high relapse and resistance against conventional chemotherapy. This resistance is related to a small clone referred to as Leukemia Stem Cells (LSCs). New targeted strategies are directed against the LSCs’ extrinsic regulators including their microenvironment such as a CXCR4 antagonist that is used to interfere with LSCs’ homing. Targeting LSCs’ surface molecules such as CD33 for selective elimination of LSCs has variable degrees of success that may require further assessments. Trials with CARs cells were effective in eradication of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and they may have an effective role also in AML. Other strategies are directed against the intrinsic regulators such as self-renewal mechanisms and epigenetic reprogramming of LSCs. This review highlights targeting of the extrinsic regulators of the LSCs and identifies biological differences between them and normal hematopoietic stem cells. Introduction LSCs theory and properties Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological disorder LSCs are able to divide to progeny clonogenic blast cells, leading to characterized by a malignant clone thought to be derived from a small the concept that AML is arranged in a hierarchy, with the LSCs present number of cells known as leukemic stem cells (LSCs).

AMD3100 was the first Food and Drug Administration (FDA)- While CXCR4 antagonists have potential anticancer effects when approved CXCR4 antagonist used for peripheral blood stem cell combined with conventional anticancer drugs, their poor potency transplantation (PBSCT) (18); however, its application to solid against CXCL12/CXCR4 downstream signaling pathways and sys- tumors is limited by its poor pharmacokinetics and toxic adverse temic toxicity had precluded clinical application. Herein, BPRCX807, effects after long-term administration (19, 20). Thus, a CXCR4 known as a safe, selective, and potent CXCR4 antagonist, has been antagonist with higher safety and better pharmacological and designed and experimentally realized.
