In addition, JQ1 suppressed the proliferation of main neoplastic MCs from individuals with ASM or MCL (IC50: 100-500 nM). In drug combination experiments, midostaurin (PKC412) and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) were found to cooperate with JQ1 in generating synergistic effects on survival in HMC-1 and ROSA cells. Collectively, we have recognized BRD4 like a encouraging drug target in advanced SM. Whether JQ1 or additional BET-bromodomain inhibitors are effective in individuals with advanced SM remains to be elucidated. mutations at codon 816 as reported.21,34 In one patient with MCL, a D816H mutation was found. In most additional individuals, neoplastic cells were found to carry D816V (Supplementary Table S2). Control samples (normal/reactive BM) were from individuals with idiopathic cytopenia (n=2), lymphomas without BM infiltration (n=6), auto-immune thyroiditis (n=1), and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in major molecular response (n=1). Cell lines The MCL cell collection CGP-42112 HMC-1 35 was kindly provided by Dr.J.H.Butterfield (Mayo Medical center, Rochester, MN). Two sub-clones were used, HMC-1.1 expressing KIT V560G, and HMC-1.2 harboring KIT V560G and KIT D816V.24,36 HMC-1 cells were managed in IMDM containing 10% FCS, L-glutamine and antibiotics (37C, 5% CO2). The recently established human being MC lines ROSAKIT WT and ROSAKIT D816V were cultured in IMDM with 10% FCS.37 ROSAKIT WT cells were managed in stem cell factor (SCF), and ROSAKIT D816V cells without SCF.
