1 Retinoic acid synergizes with the unfolded protein response and oxidative stress to induce cell death in FLT3-ITD+ AML. Tretinoin fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 3 Homo sapiens
2 Here, we show that the triple combination of the differentiating agent retinoic acid (RA), the ER stress-inducing drug tunicamycin (Tm), and arsenic trioxide (ATO), able to generate oxidative stress, leads to the death of AML cell lines expressing fusion proteins involving the gene MLL and the internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the FLT3 tyrosine kinase receptor. Tretinoin fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 3 Homo sapiens
3 Here, we show that the triple combination of the differentiating agent retinoic acid (RA), the ER stress-inducing drug tunicamycin (Tm), and arsenic trioxide (ATO), able to generate oxidative stress, leads to the death of AML cell lines expressing fusion proteins involving the gene MLL and the internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the FLT3 tyrosine kinase receptor. Tretinoin fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 3 Homo sapiens
4 Our data provide a proof of concept that low amounts of drugs that generate ER and oxidative stresses combined with RA could be an effective targeted therapy to hit AML cells characterized by MLL fusion proteins and FLT3-ITD mutation. Tretinoin fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 3 Homo sapiens
