Objectives: Dual specificity phosphatase 1 (DUSP1) is high-expressed in various cancers and plays an important role in the cellular response to agents that damage DNA. We aimed to investigate the expressions and mechanisms of DUSP1 signaling pathway regulating cytarabine (Ara-C) resistance in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods: Immunohistochemistry was performed on bone marrow biopsy specimens from AML and controls to explore the expression of DUSP1. Western blot and Q-PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression levels. MTT assay was used to detect the proliferation of cells. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The immune protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of DUSP1 was analyzed in the platform of Pathway Commons, and immune infiltration analysis was used to study the immune microenvironment of AML. Results: We found that the expression levels of DUSP1 in AML patients exceeded that in controls. Survival analysis in public datasets showed that AML patients with higher levels of DUSP1 had poor clinical outcomes. Further public data analysis indicated that DUSP1 was overexpressed in NRAS mutated AML. DUSP1 knockdown by siRNA could sensitize AML cells to Ara-C treatments. The phosphorylation level of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway was significantly elevated in DUSP1 down-regulated NRAS G13D mutated AML cells. The PPI analysis showed DUSP1 correlated with immune gene CREB1 and CXCL8 in NRAS mutated AML. We also revealed a correlation between tumor-infiltrating immune cells in RAS mutated AML microenvironment. Conclusion : Our findings suggest that DUSP1 signaling pathways may regulate Ara-C sensitivity in AML. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
