Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) cells are characterized by a constitutive and abnormal activation of the NF- B transcription factor. This study conducted in vitro on 18 patients, shows that targeting the IKK2 kinase with the specific pharmacological inhibitor AS602868 to block NF- B activation, led to apoptosis of human primary AML cells. Moreover, AS602868 potentiated the apoptotic response induced by the current chemotherapeutic drugs doxorubicin, cytarabine or VP-16. AS602868-induced cell death was associated with rupture of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential and activation of cellular caspases. NF- B inhibition did not affect normal CD34+ hematopoietic precursors, suggesting that it could represent a new adjuvant strategy for AML treatment.
