Research Abstract

Mechanism of the FLT3 ligand (FL) -induced cell cycle arrest and acquisition of resistance against anti-leukemic drugs in ALL with 11q23 translocations was analyzed. Three days after culture in the presence of FL, KOCL-58 cell line with 11q23 translocation was induced into GO/GI arrest with up-regulation of CDK inhibitor p27 and dephosphorylation of STATS. In FL-induced cell cycle arrest, the cell line showed resistance against daunorubicin (DNR) or cytosine arabinosid (AraC). When cocultured with bone marrow stromal cell line expressing membrane-bound form of FL at high levels, the cell line was induced into GO/GI arrest and showed resistance to DNR or AraC. This effect was partially abrogated in the presence of anti-FL antibody. Thus, ALL cells with 11q23 translocations are induced into quiescent state resistant to chemotherapy in vivo when they adhere to bone marrow stromal cells producing FL irrespective of membrane-bound form or secretary form. This FLT3/FL system may be associated with the formation of minimum residual disease in bone marrow resulting in early relapse of ALL with 11q23 translocations.
