The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph1), detected in virtually all cases of chronic myelogenous leukemia, is formed by a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 that fuses BCR encoded sequences upstream of exon 2 of c-ABL. This oncogene produces a fusion protein (p210BCR/ABL) in which the ABL tyrosine kinase activity is elevated. This elevated kinase activity is essential for transformation, but the mechanisms involved are unknown. We report here that p21ras GTPase activating protein (rasGAP) or rasGAP-associated proteins p190 and p62 are phosphorylated on tyrosine in Ph1 (+) cell lines. Further, rasGAP coimmunoprecipitates with p210BCR/ABL in these cell lines. These results suggest that rasGAP or associated proteins are potential substrates for p210BCR/ABL kinase and thus directly link p210BCR/ABL with a signal transduction pathway known to be activated by hematopoietic growth factors (p21ras).

Abstract As the first-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor specifically targeting the BCR-ABL oncoprotein, imatinib has been successfully used in the therapy for chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) with a significant response and good compliance. However, imatinib resistance becomes the main reason for failure of the treatment of CML. In addition to the common BCR-ABL dependence of imatinib resistance, e.g. BCR-ABL kinase domain mutations and BCR-ABL gene amplification, BCR-ABL independence also plays important roles, which involves alteration of dynamics of drug import and efflux, persistent or compensatory activation of signaling pathways etc. Recently, several studies have reported the correlation of lncRNA with resistance of chemotherapeutic drugs in many cancers. Here, we report, for the first time, discernible overexpression of lncRNARP1-68D18.2 and CD44 mRNA in the imatinib resistant chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line K562R, using lncRNA and mRNA microarray, and further verify it using qPCR. Knockdown of RP1-68D18.2 in K562R cell lines increased their sensitivity to imatinib, and simultaneously caused a decrease in CD44 and c-Myc protein levels. Correspondingly, overexpression of RP1-68D18.2 in K562, a sensitive cell line, led to a slightly decrease in imatinib sensitivity and partially reverse downregulation of c-Myc, p-ERK and p-MEK caused by imatinib treatment. Analysis of correlations revealed positive correlation between RP1-68D18.2 and CD44 mRNA expression in the primary CML blasts and hematological malignant cell lines. We conclude that overexpression of RP1-68D18.2 could promote imatinib resistance in the K562R cell line through the regulation of CD44 and its downstream signal molecules.
