Role of the protein phosphatase CD45 and lipid rafts in the maintenance of acute myeloblastic leukemiaand development of a new therapeutic treatment

2017

CD45 is a pan-leukocyte protein with tyrosine phosphatase activity involved in the regulation of cytokinereceptors in hematopoiesis, such as the GM-CSF. We report here on new chemical compound,Pyrido[4,3-b]quinoxaline (PyQ), which is a plasma membrane disrupting agent, as a potential drug fortreatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Indeed, we show that the hematopoietic cell lines aremore sensitive to PyQ, compared with non- hematopoietic cell lines. Using HOXA9-MEIS1-transformed blasts from a mouse model to study AML and human primary AML samples, wediscovered that CD45, which is mainly found within plasma-membrane lipid rafts, is rapidly delocalizedafter treatment with PyQ compound.
