| Research Abstract |
Dok-1 and Dok-2 are rasGAP-associated adaptor proteins expressed preferentially in hematopoietic cells. We found that Dok-1 plays an important role of cell cycle progression in cultured cells. We also generated mice lacking Dok-1 and/or Dok-2 ; among them, the double-deficient mice succumbed to myeloproliferative disease resembling human chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. The double-deficient mice had increased hematpoietic stem cells and displayed medullary and extramedullary hyperplasia of granulocyte/macrophage progenitors with leukemic potential, and their myeloid cells showed hyper-proliferation and hypo-apoptosis together with enhanced Erk and Akt activation upon cytokine stimulation. Moreover, loss of Dok-1 and/or Dok-2 induced blastic transformation of chronic phase CML-like disease in mice carrying bcr-ab1 gene. These findings demonstrate that Dok-1 and Dok-2 are key negative regulators of cytokine responses and are essential for myeloid homeostasis and suppression of leukemia.
