Suppression of SERPINA1-albumin complex formation by galectin-3 overexpression leads to paracrine growth promotion of chronic myelogenous leukemia cells
文摘
Galectin-3 is induced in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cells by co-culture with bone marrow stromal cells, making paracrine growth promotion of CML cells in conditioned medium (CM) from galectin-3 overexpressing CML cells more potent. We used gel filtration chromatography to demonstrate that the bovine SERPINA1-fetal bovine serum albumin (BSA) complex was specifically suppressed in CM from galectin-3 overexpressing cells. The SERPINA1-BSA complex as well as human plasma SERPINA1 inhibited the growth of CML cells, while exogenous galectin-3 partly offset this effect. These findings suggest that galectin-3 overexpression promotes paracrine growth of CML cells by interfering with the action of the growth inhibitory SERPINA1-albumin complex.
