[Abstract]
To investigate the effect of cinobufacini on immune escape of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by regulating myosin heavy chain 9(MYH9)/ubiquitin-specific protease 7(USP7)/cellular-myelocytomatosis viral oncogene(c-MYC) pathway. Methods (1)In vivo experiment: a nude mouse xenograft tumor model was established to evaluate the effect of cinobufotalin on the growth and immune escape of AML cells in vivo.(2)In vitro experiments:human AML cell line HL-60 was treated with different concentrations of cinobufacini,cell viability was detected by cell counting kit 8(CCK-8),and HL-60 cell invasion was detected by Transwell assay. HL-60 cells were co-cultured with activated CD8+ T cells,the expression of CD25,the surface marker of CD8+ T cells, was detected by flow cytometry,the levels of cytokines [interleukin-2(IL-2) and interferon(IFN-γ)] in the coculture supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). CytoTox96 non-radioactive cytotoxicity assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of CD8+ T cells to HL-60 cells. The protein expressions of MYH9,USP7 and c-MYC in HL-60 cells were detected by Western Blot. The interaction between MYH9,USP7 and ubiquitination was detected by co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP) assay. The MYH9 overexpression plasmid was tranfected to verify the mechanism of cinobufacini in AML. Results Cinobufacini treatment inhibited xerograft tumor growth in nude mice and enhanced the anti-tumor ability of CD8+ T cells. Cinobufacini treatment inhibited HL-60 cell viability and invasion in a concentration-dependent manner. Cinobufacini treatment up-regulated the expression of CD25, a surface marker of CD8+ T cells, and also up-regulated the levels of IL-2 and IFN- γ. Cinobufotalin enhanced the toxicity of CD8+ T cells to HL-60 cells. Cinobufacini inhibits the protein expressions of MYH9, USP7 and c-MYC in HL-60 cells. MYH9 promotes c-MYC deubiquitination by recruiting USP7, but cinobufacini inhibits MYH9-mediated c-MYC deubiquitination. Conclusion Cinobufacini can reduce the recruitment of c-MYC by deubiquitinating enzyme USP7 by inhibiting the expression of MYH9,and promote the ubiquitination and degradation of c-MYC,thereby inhibiting the immune escape of AML cells.
