ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.3109/10428194.2014.983099 | Abstract: | We performed gene expression profiling in Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated T/natural killer (NK)-cell lymphoproliferative disorder in children and young adults (TNKLPDC) in order to understand the molecular pathways deregulated in this disease and compared it with nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL). The molecular and phenotypic signature of TNKLPDC is similar to NKTL, with overexpression of p53, survivin and EZH2. Down-regulation of EZH2 in TNKLPDC cell lines led to an increase in apoptosis and decrease in tumor viability, suggesting that EZH2 may be important for the survival of TNKLPDC cells and hence potentially a useful therapeutic target. Notably, our gene expression profiling revealed a distinctive enrichment of stem cell related genes in TNKLPDC compared to NKTL. This was validated by a significantly higher expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) in TNKLPDC cell lines compared to NKTL cell lines. The novel discovery of cancer stem cell properties in TNKLPDC has potential therapeutic implications in this group of disorders. | Source Title: | LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/206656 | ISSN: | 10428194 10292403 |
