Abstract Purpose: Leukemic stem cells (LSC) are responsible for leukemia initiation, relapse, and therapeutic resistance. Therefore, the development of novel approaches targeting LSCs is urgently needed patients with acute myeloid (AML). Experimental Design: The LSC-like cell lines (KG-1α Kasumi-1) CD34+ primary AML purified from (n = 23) treated CS055 and/or chiglitazar were analyzed viability, death, colony formation assay. We performed RNA sequencing, glutamate release, intracellular...
Abstract Persistence of leukemic stem cells (LSCs) is one the determining factors to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment failure and responsible for poor prognosis disease. Hence, novel therapeutic strategies that target LSCs are crucial success. We investigated if targeting Bcl-2 peroxisome proliferator activated receptor α (PPARα), two distinct cell survival regulating mechanisms could eliminate LSCs. This study demonstrate inhibitor venetoclax combined with PPARα agonist chiglitazar...

Abstract Leukemia stem cells (LSCs) are responsible for leukemia initiation, relapse, and therapeutic resistance. Therefore, the development of novel approaches targeting LSCs is urgently needed patients with AML. Here, we report that histone deacetylase inhibitor chidamide (CS055), in combination peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) pan agonist (chiglitazar), synergistically targets stem-like from cell lines patient samples, while sparing normal hematopoietic progenitor cells....
