Specific Inhibition of the Expression of the Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) Protein by Anti-Sense Oligonucleotides
In the present study, using anti-sense oligonucleotides the inhibition of expression of the PML protein hasbeen investigated. The anti-sense oligonucleotides were designed against the translation initiation site ofthe PML gene, and their effects were investigated on cellular growth and DNA synthesis. Incubation of normalhuman fibroblast cells with the anti-sense oligonucleotid...
full textPML protein expression in hematopoietic and acute promyelocytic leukemia cells.
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is thought to be caused by the t(15,17) translocation that fuses the PML gene to that of the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RAR alpha) and generates a PML/RAR alpha fusion protein. Yet, paradoxically, APL cells are exquisitely sensitive to retinoic acid (RA), as they terminally differentiate upon RA exposure. In this report, we have examined the expression of P...
full textAcute promyelocytic leukemia, arsenic, and PML bodies
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is driven by a chromosomal translocation whose product, the PML/retinoic acid (RA) receptor α (RARA) fusion protein, affects both nuclear receptor signaling and PML body assembly. Dissection of APL pathogenesis has led to the rediscovery of PML bodies and revealed their role in cell senescence, disease pathogenesis, and responsiveness to treatment. APL is rema...
full textRole of Promyelocytic Leukemia (Pml) Protein in Tumor Suppression
The promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene encodes a putative tumor suppressor gene involved in the control of apoptosis, which is fused to the retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARalpha) gene in the vast majority of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients as a consequence of chromosomal translocations. The PMLRARalpha oncoprotein is thought to antagonize the function of PML through its ability to h...
full textThe promyelocytic leukemia protein PML regulates c-Jun function in response to DNA damage.
The promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene, a tumor suppressor inactivated in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), regulates apoptosis induced by DNA damage. However, the molecular mechanisms by which PML modulates apoptosis following genotoxic stress are only partially elucidated. PML is essential for p53-dependent induction of programmed cell death upon gamma-irradiation through PML-nuclear body (N...
full textInhibition of Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML)/Retinoic Acid
The fusion protein promyelocytic leukemia (PML)/retinoic acid receptor (RAR)a is tightly linked to the pathogenesis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL); hence, it represents a tumor-associated, transformationrelated molecule. In this study, three anti-PML adamantyl-conjugated peptide nucleic acid (PNA) oligomers previously described as in vitro inhibitors of PML/RARa translation were combined...
