Mutations in the BCR/ABL kinase domain play a major role in resistance to imatinib mesylate (IM). We report here that BCR/ABL kinase stimulates reactive oxygen species (ROS), which elevate oxidative DNA damage and cause mutations in the kinase domain. The majority of mutations involved A/T{Rightarrow}G/C and G/C{Rightarrow}A/T transitions, a phenotype detected previously in patients, which encoded clinically relevant amino acid substitutions causing IM resistance. This effect was reduced in cells expressing BCR/ABL[Y177F] mutant, which does not elevate ROS. Inhibition of ROS in leukemia cells by the anti-oxidants pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and vitamin E (VE) decreased the mutagenesis rate and frequency of IM resistance. Simultaneous administration of IM and an anti-oxidant exerted better anti-mutagenic effect than an anti-oxidant alone. Therefore, inhibition of ROS should diminish mutagenesis and enhance the effectiveness of IM.
