KIAA0101 knockdown inhibits cell proliferation and induces cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells
BACKGROUND: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a heterogeneous disease with intense cytogenetic aberrations. Importantly, our recent report indicated that thyroid hormone receptor interactor 13 (TRIP13) is a potential new therapeutic target in CLL. In this study, we predicted 20 TRIP13-related ge...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a heterogeneous disease with intense cytogenetic aberrations. Importantly, our recent report indicated that thyroid hormone receptor interactor 13 (TRIP13) is a potential new therapeutic target in CLL. In this study, we predicted 20 TRIP13-related genes and found that KIAA0101 is a novel gene that regulates cell proliferation and the cell cycle of CLL cells. METHODS: CD19(+) B cells were isolated from the peripheral blood of 26 CLL patients and 6 healthy donors through magnetic cell sorting. Cell proliferation was assessed by the CCK-8 assay. The mRNA and protein levels of genes were examined through RT-qPCR and western blot assays, respectively. Cell cycle and cell apoptosis were measured through Annexin V-based flow cytometry and the caspase 3/7 activity assay. Potential targets of KIAA0101 were identified through microarray analysis. 20 TRIP13 related genes was predicted by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). KIAA0101-regulated functions and molecular pathways were predicted through IPA. RESULTS: KIAA0101 knockdown had the strongest inhibitory effect on CLL cell proliferation among the 20 TRIP13-related genes. KIAA0101 was highly expressed in CD19(+) B cells of CLL patients. KIAA0101 knockdown induced cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis, and inhibited FOXO1, MYD88, and TLR4 expression in CLL cells. CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, we demonstrated that KIAA0101 plays a critical role in cell proliferation and the cell cycle of human CLL cells. KIAA0101 knockdown induced cell apoptosis, and reduced FOXO1, MYD88, and TLR4 expression, and may therefore be used as a therapeutic target of CLL. |
