MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are regulators of several key patho-physiological processes, including cell cycle and apoptosis. Using microarray-based miRNA profiling in K562 cells, a model of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), we found that the oncoprotein BCR-ABL1 regulates the expression of miR-21, an "onco-microRNA", found to be overexpressed in several cancers. This effect relies on the presence of two STAT binding sites on the promoter of miR-21, and on the phosphorylation status of STAT5, a transcription factor activated by the kinase activity of BCR-ABL1. Mir-21 regulates the expression of PDCD4 (programmed cell death protein 4), a tumor suppressor identified through a proteomics approach. The phosphoSTAT5 - miR-21 - PDCD4 pathway was active in CML primary CD34(+) cells, but also in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) models like MV4.11 and MOLM13, where the constitutively active tyrosine kinase FLT3-ITD plays a similar role to BCR-ABL1 in the K562 cell line.< Réduire
