The bcr-abl fusion gene induced by reciprocal translocation of t(9; 22)(q34; q11) plays an important role in pathogenesis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Using the strategy of activating double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-dependent protein kinase (PKR) by the dsRNA formed between the CML-specific bcr/abl fusion gene mRNA and the exogenous recombinant antisense RNA, this study was to investigate the effect of the activated PKR on the proliferation of leukemia cell line K562, and explore its possible mechanisms.dsRNA analogue polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid (PolyIC), retroviral vector containing 40 bp of bcr/abl fusion gene sequence (RV-40AS), RV-40AS and 2-aminopurine (2-AP), and retroviral vector containing green fluorescent protein sequence (RV-GFP) were transfected or infected into K562 cells respectively; ECV304 cells were used as control. Cell proliferation was determined by cell counting, MTT assay, and semisolid clone formation experiment. Cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). The expression of PKR, phosphated PKR (p-PKR), eukaryotic initiation factor-2alpha (eIF2alpha), and phosphated eIF2alpha (p-eIF2alpha) was detected by Western blot. Total protein synthesis was studied by 3H-leucine incorporation.polyIC inhibited the proliferation of K562 cells and ECV304 cells unspecifically, while RV-40AS only inhibited the proliferation of K562 cells specifically. 2-AP blocked the inhibitory effect of RV-40AS on the proliferation of K562 cells. The S phase proportion was significantly lower in polyIC-and RV-40AS-treated K562 cells than in untreated cells [(37.26+/-2.35)% and (31.48+/-3.65)% vs. (58.53+/-5.42)%, P0.05], while the G0/G1 phase proportion was significantly higher in polyIC-and RV-40AS-treated cells than in untreated cells [(50.97+/-2.18)% and (57.47+/-3.61)% vs. (36.44+/-4.20)%, P0.05]. The expression of p-PKR and p-eIF2alpha in polyIC-and RV-40AS-treated K562 cells and polyIC-treated ECV304 cells was obviously up-regulated. The total protein synthesis level was significantly lower in RV-40AS-treated K562 cells than in untreated K562 cells [(3.5+/-1.9) cpm/ng vs. (26.8+/-2.6) cpm/ng, P0.05].Targeted activation of PKR could inhibit the proliferation of K562 cells through inhibiting protein synthesis, and arresting progression of cell cycle. |
