Retinoic acid is known to induce differentiation of human myeloid leukemia
cells in vitro. Recently, all-trans retinoic acid has been used to induce
remissions in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia, probably through
differentiation of the leukemia cells. Myeloblastin (mbn) is a protease
that has been identified in the human leukemia cell line HL-60.
Downregulation of this protease can inhibit proliferation and induce
differentiation of HL-60-derived leukemia cells. Here we have investigated
the regulation of mbn messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in two human leukemia
cell lines, HL-60 and NB4, treated with all-trans retinoic acid. Under this
treatment, downregulation of mbn mRNA was observed in both cell lines, but
was considerably delayed in NB4 cells that carry the t(15;17) translocation
characteristic of acute promyelocytic leukemia. We have found that multiple
mechanisms were involved in the control of mbn mRNA expression. These
mechanisms were different in HL-60 and NB4 cells. Our results show that in
HL-60 cells, all-trans retinoic acid rapidly decreased transcription of
mbn. In contrast, in the t(15;17)-positive NB4 cells treated with all-trans
retinoic acid, upregulation of mbn mRNA expression was followed by a late
downregulation, both achieved via posttranscriptional mechanisms.
