چکیده

Basophilia is a frequently observed hematological abnormality in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), but its pathophysiological roles are undefined. We previously demonstrated that an inflammatory chemokine, CCL3, preferentially acts on normal hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells and crucially contributes to the maintenance of leukemia initiating cells (LICs) in bone marrow (BM) during the initiation process of CML. However, the major cellular source of CCL3 in BM and the precise mechanism of CCL3-mediated maintenance of LICs remain to be investigated. To delineate the cellular process facilitating this CCL3-mediated crosstalk between normal and leukemic hematopoiesis, we precisely examined CCL3-expressing cells and their functions in both normal hematopoiesis and CML leukemogenesis. Herein, we demonstrate that basophils can constitutively express CCL3 to negatively regulate the normal hematopoietic process, especially hematopoietic reconstitution after BM transplantation. Moreover, CCL3-expressing basophil-like leukemia cells were found to accumulate in CML BM and supported the predominant expansion of LICs therein. These observations suggest that intra-BM basophil expansion can favor leukemia-tropic hematopoiesis in CML by providing CCL3, a potent inhibitor of normal hematopoiesis and that basophil-derived CCL3 may be a novel target molecule for the treatment of CML.

MIP-1a/CCL3-expressing basophil-lineage cells drive the leukemic hematopoiesis of chronic myeloid leukemia in mice

Almost all patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) harbor the Philadelphia chromosome, which arises from a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22. The break-point cluster region encodes the BCR-ABL fusion protein, which exhibits a constitutive tyrosine kinase activity that can transform hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) into leukemia initiating cells (LICs), which in turn can ...

MIP-1α/CCL3-mediated maintenance of leukemia-initiating cells in the initiation process of chronic myeloid leukemia

In the initiation process of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a small number of transformed leukemia-initiating cells (LICs) coexist with a large number of normal hematopoietic cells, gradually increasing thereafter and eventually predominating in the hematopoietic space. However, the interaction between LICs and normal hematopoietic cells at the early phase has not been clearly delineated becau...

Role of macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1α/CCL3 in leukemogenesis

The biologic function of the CC chemokine macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α/CCL3) has been extensively studied since its initial identification as a macrophage-derived inflammatory mediator. In addition to its proinflammatory activities, CCL3 negatively regulates the proliferation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). On the basis of this unique function, CCL3 is alternativel...

Loss of Egr1, a human del5q gene, accelerates BCR-ABL driven chronic myelogenous leukemia

There is substantial evidence that early growth response-1 (Egr1) gene, a zinc-finger transcription factor, behaves as a tumor suppressor in leukemia. This includes reports from this laboratory that constitutive Egr1 overrides leukemia conferred by deregulated c-Myc or E2F-1 in the M1 myeloid leukemic cell line by promoting differentiation. To investigate the effect of Egr1 on the initiation an...

Lineage Switch in Childhood Leukemia: A Case Report and Review of Literature

Acute leukemia which is the most common cancer in children is a heterogeneous group of clonal malignancies. The conversion of the leukemic cell lineage during the course of the disease or later is termed lineage switch. It has been rarely reported in the literature. In leukemia lineage switch, conversions from lymphoblastic leukemia to myeloid leukemia or vice versa are reported. Herein, we rep...
