| Abstract | The 90-kDa heat shock protein (HSP90) is implicated in the conformational maturation and stabilization of a variety of client proteins with receptor and signal transduction functions. The objective of this study was to assess its expression in primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells and to evaluate its biological and clinical significance. The in vitro effects of 17-AAG, a selective inhibitor of HSP90, was also evaluated. Cells from 65 patients with newly diagnosed AML were studied. The expression of HSP90 correlated with that of CD34, p170, and bcl-2 proteins but not with white cell counts, FAB or WHO subtype, or cytogenetics. HSP90 levels were also higher in samples exhibiting an autonomous growth in liquid culture or forming spontaneous colonies. A concomitant constitutive activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT pathways was observed in a majority of samples and was significantly correlated with HSP90 expression. All patients received induction chemotherapy. The percentages of HSP90-, CD34-, bcl-2-, and p170-positive cells were higher in patients who did not attain complete remission. Survival was also shorter in patients with high levels of HSP90. In vitro exposure of leukemic cells to 17-allylamino-demethoxy geldanamycin (17-AAG) resulted in inhibition of growth in liquid and clonogeneic cultures and in apoptosis, at concentrations which in most cases were not toxic for normal CD34-positive or progenitor cells. The concentration inhibiting 50% growth at 72 h in liquid culture correlated with HSP90 expression. Our study suggests that HSP90 is overexpressed in poor-prognosis AML cells and plays a role in cell survival and resistance to chemotherapy. Targeted therapy with 17-AAG represents a promising antileukemic strategy in adult AML. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
