Desferioxamine increases iron depletion and apoptosis induced by ara‐C of human myeloid leukaemic cells

Abstract: Summary.We investigated whether changes in iron metabolism and the transferrin receptor (TRF-R) expression were involved in the antileukaemic effects of arabinoside cytosine (ara-C). Treatment with 100 nM ara-C for 48 h reduced thymidine uptake and increased the surface expression of the TRF-R on leukaemic blasts derived from 13/16 (81%) patients and on the HL-60 and U-937 cell lines. Whereas intracellular non-haem iron was strongly depleted 24 h after ara-C addition, TRF-R up-regulation and recovery of intrac… Show more

“…Erythrocytes and plasma free iron levels were determined according to Leardi et al (1998) using a commercially available kit from Biomaghreb. Briefly, at acidic pH 4.8 all Fe 3+ released from transferrin were reduced by ascorbic acid into Fe 2+ , which constitutes with ferrozine a purple colourful complex measurable at 560 nm.…”

“…Although it has been shown that DFB has a toxic effect on eukaryotic cells (Fukuchi et al 1994, Leardi et al 1998, we have demonstrated that this is not the case for our heterotrophic bioreporter (Fig. 5).…”

“…The interaction of TNK2 in vivo with clathrin and AP-2 participated in various trafficking pathways, underlying an ability to increase receptor-mediated transferrin uptake (37,39). It is well known that iron is essential for cell proliferation, and the iron was suggested to enhance the cell proliferation or anti-apoptotic effect (40)(41)(42)(43). The up-regulation of TNK2 and AP2B1 might induce the iron uptake into the leukemic cells, and the iron might play an important role for re-growth of the leukemic cells.…”
