Abstract Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm. INNO-406 is a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that possess specific Lyn kinase inhibitory activity with no or limited activity against other sarcoma (Src) family member kinases. The present study aimed to confirm the anti-tumor effect of INNO-406 on CML cells, and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanism. CML cells were treated by INNO-406 at the concentration of 5, 25, 50, 100 μM at the indicated time. Cell proliferation was measured by MTT. Cell apoptosis were detected by Western blot and flow cytometry, respectively. As suggested by the findings, INNO-406 significantly inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis of CML cells. In addition, INNO-406 promoted the expression level of PTEN. Rescue experiment revealed that PTEN knockdown reversed the effect of INNO-406 which indicated the correlation between INNO-406 and PTEN. Further study determined that PTEN inhibited the phosphorylation of AKT and 4EBP1 and subsequently altered the expression of apoptotic proteins including bax, cytoplasmic cytochrome c (cyto-c), cleaved caspase3 and bcl-2. In vivo study further confirmed that INNO-406 inhibited the growth of CML cells by targeting PTEN. Based on the above findings, this work extended our understanding of INNO-406 in the therapy of CML and its molecular mechanism.

Introduction Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by the formation of the fusion gene consist of Abelson murine leukemia (ABL) gene and breakpoint cluster region (BCR) which encodes a constitutively active Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase [1–3]. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase have made great development in the treatment of CML over the decades which improved 10 year overall survival from approximately 20% to 80–90% [4, 5]. However, about 25% of the children and half of the adults are still insensitive to chemotherapy or will relapse. Moreover, side effects, such as skin toxicity and allergic reaction are still clinical challenges which limited application of TKI [6,
