Because of the probable causal relationship between constitutive p210(bcr/abl) protein tyrosine kinase activity and manifestations of chronic-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML; myeloid expansion), a key goal is to identify relevant p210 substrates in primary chronic-phase CML hematopoietic progenitor cells. We describe here the purification and mass spectrometric identification of a 155-kD tyrosine phosphorylated protein associated with src homologous and collagen gene (SHC) from p210(bcr/abl)-expressing hematopoietic cells as SHIP2, a recently reported, unique SH2-domain-containing protein closely related to phosphatidylinositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase SHIP. In addition to an N-terminal SH2 domain and a central catalytic region, SHIP2 (like SHIP1) possesses both potential PTB(NPXY) and SH3 domain (PXXP) binding motifs. Thus, two unique 5-ptases with striking structural homology are coexpressed in hematopoietic progenitor cells. Stimulation of human hematopoietic growth factor responsive cell lines with stem cell factor (SCF), interleukin-3 (IL-3), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) demonstrate the rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP2 and its resulting association with SHC. This finding suggests that SHIP2, like that reported for SHIP1 previously, is linked to downstream signaling events after activation of hematopoietic growth factor receptors. However, using antibodies specific to these two proteins, we demonstrate that, whereas SHIP1 and SHIP2 selectively hydrolyze PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in vitro, only SHIP1 hydrolyzes soluble Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. Such an enzymatic difference raises the possibility that SHIP1 and SHIP2 may serve different functions. Preliminary binding studies using lysates from p210(bcr/abl)-expressing cells indicate that both Ptyr SHIP2 and Ptyr SHIP1 bind to the PTB domain of SHC but not to its SH2 domain. Interestingly, SHIP2 was found to selectively bind to the SH3 domain of ABL, whereas SHIP1 selectively binds to the SH3 domain of Src. Furthermore, in contrast to SHIP1, SHIP2 did not bind to either the N-terminal or C-terminal SH3 domains of GRB2. These observations suggest (1) that SHIP1 and SHIP2 may have a different hierarchy of binding SH3 containing proteins and therefore may modulate different signaling pathways and/or localize to different cellular compartments and (2) that they may be substrates for tyrosine phosphorylation by different tyrosine kinases. Because recent evidence has clearly implicated both PI(3,4, 5)P3 and PI(3,4)P2 in growth factor-mediated signaling, our finding that both SHIP1 and SHIP2 are constitutively tyrosine phosphorylated in CML primary hematopoietic progenitor cells may thus have important implications in p210(bcr/abl)-mediated myeloid expansion.

The initial phase of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is triggered by constitutive protein tyrosine kinase activity of the chimeric kinase p210(bcr-abl) (Bcr-Abl). A major substrate of Bcr-Abl was recently identified as the RasGAP-associated 62 kDa docking protein Dok1. Here, we report complex formation between endogenous Dok1 and the SH2 domain-containing phosphatidylinositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase SHIP1 in hematopoietic cells expressing Bcr-Abl. Expression of Bcr-Abl induced tyrosine phosphorylation of both Dok1 and SHIP1 and the formation of a Dok1/SHIP1 complex. Tyr(P) SHIP1 was also bound to Shc in Bcr-Abl expressing cells. A small amount of Shc/SHIP1/Dok1 trimolecular complex was detected and this was due to binding of Dok1 to SHIP1 that was bound to Shc. In contrast, association of Dok1 with SHIP1 or RasGAP was mutually exclusive. Both the SH2 domain of SHIP1 and the PTB domain of Dok1 were required for complex formation between the two proteins. Neither the specific activity of SHIP1 as an inositol phosphate 5-phosphatase nor the subcellular localization of SHIP1 appeared to be altered by tyrosine phosphorylation. However, the Dok1/SHIP1 complex was only detected in the cytosolic fraction of Bcr-Abl transformed hematopoietic cells. We propose that interaction between Dok1 and SHIP1 modulates the ability of these two proteins to interact with other cytosolic binding partners.

Point mutations of bcr-abl tyrosine kinase are the most frequent causes of imatinib resistance in chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) patients. In most CML cases with BCR-ABL mutations leading to imatinib resistance the second generation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI- e.g. nilotinib or dasatinib) may be effective. Here, we report a case of a CML patient who during imatinib treatment did not obtain clinical and cytogenetic response within 12 months of therapy. The sequencing of BCR-ABL kinase domains was performed and revealed the presence of a F359I point mutation (TTC-to-ATC nucleotide change leading to Phe-to-Ile amino acid substitution). After 1 month of nilotinib therapy a rapid progression of clinical symptoms was observed. In the presence of the F359I point mutation only dasatinib treatment overcame imatinib and nilotinib resistance.

Imatinib mesylate (IM) has so far been the standard of care for treating chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), but the initial striking efficacy of this drug has been overshadowed by the development of clinical resistance, which may in part be caused by pharmacogenetic variability. The ATP-binding cassette, subfamily B, member 1 (ABCB1) gene codes for P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a membrane-bound efflux transporter known to affect the pharmacokinetics of many drugs. IM is a substrate of the P-gp-mediated efflux. ABCB1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been reported as modulators of ABCB1-mediated transport, affecting IM's bioavailability and consequently the treatment outcome of IM therapy. We aimed to examine the association between ABCB1 SNPs and the likelihood of achieving optimal response in IM-treated CML patients. Three ABCB1 SNPs (C1236T, G2677T, and C3435T) were genotyped in 100 Egyptian patients with CML undergoing IM therapy using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay. The optimal response rate did not differ significantly between C1236T, G2677T, or C3435T genotypes (P > 0.05). Optimal response rate was significantly different among patients with the CGC, TTT, TGC, CGT, TGT, CTC, CTT, and TTC haplotypes (P = 0.023). The 1236T-2677G-3435T haplotype was significantly associated with lower probability of achieving optimal response (P = 0.001). ABCB1 SNPs haplotype analysis should be taken into account in an attempt to get clearer insights into who is likely to respond optimally to IM for identifying CML patients who may not respond optimally to standard-dose IM therapy and potentially need an individualized therapeutic approach.
