The EOL-1 cell line as an in vitro model for the study of FIP1L1-PDGFRA-positive chronic eosinophilic leukemia.

چکیده
We recently identified the chimeric kinase FIP1L1-platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRalpha) as a cause of the hypereosinophilic syndrome and of chronic eosinophilic leukemia. To investigate the role of FIP1L1-PDGFRA in the pathogenesis of acute leukemia, we screened 87 leukemia cell lines for the presence of FIP1L1-PDGFRA. One cell line, EOL-1, expressed the FIP1L1-PDGFRA fusion. Three structurally divergent kinase inhibitors--imatinib (STI-571), PKC412, and SU5614--inhibited the growth of EOL-1 cells. These results indicate that the fusion of FIP1L1 to PDGFRA occurs rarely in leukemia cell lines, but they identify EOL-1 as an in vitro model for the study of FIP1L1-PDGFRA-positive chronic eosinophilic leukemia and for the analysis of small molecule inhibitors of FIP1L1-PDGFRalpha.

Lyn mediates FIP1L1-PDGFRA signal pathway facilitating IL-5RA intracellular signal through FIP1L1-PDGFRA/JAK2/Lyn/Akt network complex in CEL
The Fip1-like1 (FIP1L1)-platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA) (F/P) oncogene can cause chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL), but requires IL-5 cytokine participation. In this study, we investigate the mechanism of F/P in collaboration with IL-5 in CEL. The results showed that Lyn, a key effector in the IL-5-motivated eosinophil production, is extensively activated in F/P-positiv...
متن کاملSorafenib is a potent inhibitor of FIP1L1-PDGFR and the imatinib-resistant FIP1L1-PDGFR T674I mutant
The FIP1L1-PDGFRA oncogene is a common cause of chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL), and encodes an activated tyrosine kinase that is inhibited by imatinib. FIP1L1PDGFRA–positive patients with CEL respond to low-dose imatinib therapy, but resistance due to acquired T674I mutation has been observed. We report here the identification of sorafenib as a potent inhibitor of the FIP1 like 1–platelet-...

We developed a xenograft model of human Chronic Eosinophilic Leukemia (CEL) to study disease progression and remission-induction under therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors using imatinib and nilotinib as examples. The FIP1L1/PDGFRA+ human CEL cell lineEOL-1 was injected intravenously into scid mice, and MR imaging and FACS analysis of mouse blood samples were performed to monitor disease dev...
متن کاملLeukemogenic kinase FIP1L1‐PDGFRA and a small ubiquitin‐like modifier E3 ligase, PIAS1, form a positive cross‐talk through their enzymatic activities
Fusion tyrosine kinases play a crucial role in the development of hematological malignancies. FIP1L1-PDGFRA is a leukemogenic fusion kinase that causes chronic eosinophilic leukemia. As a constitutively active kinase, FIP1L1-PDGFRA stimulates downstream signaling molecules, leading to cellular proliferation and the generation of an anti-apoptotic state. Contribution of the N-terminal FIP1L1 por...
متن کاملLow-dose imatinib mesylate leads to rapid induction of major molecular responses and achievement of complete molecular remission in FIP1L1-PDGFRA-positive chronic eosinophilic leukemia.
The FIP1L1-PDGFRA fusion gene is a recurrent molecular lesion in eosinophilia-associated myeloproliferative disorders, predicting a favorable response to imatinib mesylate. To investigate its prevalence, 376 patients with persistent unexplained hypereosinophilia were screened by the United Kingdom reference laboratory, revealing 40 positive cases (11%). To determine response kinetics following ...
