BET bromodomain inhibitors PFI-1 and CPI-203 suppress the development of follicular lymphoma via regulating Wnt/β-catenin signaling
Objective: Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, characterized by a lymphoid follicular pattern of growth. PFI-1 or CPI-203 has been known to effectively promote the inhibition of primary effusion lymphoma progression. This study aimed at investigating the anti...

description | Objective: Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent B-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, characterized by a lymphoid follicular pattern of growth. PFI-1 or CPI-203 has been known to effectively promote the inhibition of primary effusion lymphoma progression. This study aimed at investigating the anti-tumor properties of PFI-1 and CPI-203 on FL cells and uncover the underlying mechanism of action. Methods: FL cells were treated with PFI-1 and CPI-203, and the treated cells were evaluated for their cell viability, cell cycle and apoptosis using CCK8, flow cytometry, and Western blot assays. A xenograft mouse model was used for assessing the in vivo effects of CPI-203 on tumorigenesis. Results: PFI-1 or CPI-203 showed potential inhibitory effects on the cell viability of DOHH2 and RL cells in a dose-response-dependent manner. Furthermore, PFI-1 and CPI-203 inhibited cell growth, induced apoptosis of FL cells in vitro, and facilitated the translocation of β-catenin into cytoplasm both in vitro and in vivo. After engrafted with FL cells, CPI-203-treated mice got a longer duration of survival and a smaller tumor size than control mice. Mechanistically, PFI-1 and CPI-203 impede the activity of β-catenin and its downstream molecules by regulating the DVL2/GSK3β axis. Conclusion: In conclusion, PFI-1 and CPI-203 may serve as potential anti-tumor inhibitors for the therapy of FL. |
