Drug ID: DB00619 (APRD01028, EXPT02967, DB03261)
Drug Name: Imatinib
Drug Method: In the study, we found that K562 cell proliferation was largely suppressed when it was stably transfected with miR-7. In accordance with that, apoptosis was also significantly upregulated in miR-7 stably-transfected K562 cells. Moreover, we found that miR-7-overexpressed K562 cells were far more sensitive to imatinib than controls. Further investigations showed that the ABL1 was a direct target of miR-7. Expression level of BCR-ABL and the activity of its downstream PI3K/AKT pathway were significantly reduced in miR-7-transfected cells. Taken together, our results showed that miR-7 inhibited proliferation and promoted apoptosis in K562 cells, and miR-7 might help to sensitize them to imatinib through BCR-ABL/PI3K/AKT signaling in chronic myeloid leukemia.
