Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was conducted to clarify molecular mechanisms of refractory leukemia cells in the bone marrow microenvironment. When FLT3-ITD positive leukemia cell lines (either exogenous or endogenous, K562 or MOLM-14, MV4:11, respectively) were cultured in the presence of components of extracellular matrix, such as fibronectin, of the bone marrow microenvironment, Ara-C resitance was significantly and specifically enhanced. Genes coding fibronectin or its receptor are increased in the expression at the interaction. These findings would be a part of molecular mechanisms of refractory leukemia cells in the bone marrow microenvironment after chemotherapy. The involved genes and signals would contributory to biomarkers relevant for diagnosis and monitoring the disease.
