Abstract
Objective: To investigate the relation of Jak3 constitutive activation and acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL).
Methods: NALM-6 cells were treated with varying concentrations of AG490, a Jak3 inhibitor. Apoptosis and proliferation of NALM-6 cells were tested by flow cytometry (FCM) analysis and MTT assay.
Results: With the exception of AG490 5 mumol/L, the AG490 10, 15, 20 mumol/L induced a strong apoptotic response in NALM-6 cells by FCM analysis(P < 0.05) and significantly inhibited the proliferation of NALM-6 cells by MTT assay(P < 0.05). All of the effects were dose-dependent.
Conclusion: Jak3 inhibitor AG490 can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis in NALM-6 cells, and Jak3 activation is associated with pre-B ALL.
