Abstract

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of adult lymphoma. It is a group of malignant tumors with a large number of clinical manifestations and prognoses. Therefore, it is necessary to explore its unknown potential therapeutic targets. Histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) is a novel drug for the treatment of DLBCL, however pan-HDACis cannot be ignored because of their clinical efficacy. By contrast, specific HDACi is well-tolerated, and LMK-235 is a novel HDACi that is a specific inhibitor of HDAC4 and HDAC5. In this study, we investigated the up-regulation of BCLAF1 through NF-κB signaling pathways in LMK-235, mediating the Apoptosis of two diffuse large B-cell lymphoma cell lines, OCI-LY10 and OCI-LY3. Further studies showed that BCLAF1 expression was increased in DLBCL cells after treatment with the NF-κB Inhibitor Bay11-7082. The combination of Bay11-7082 and siRNA si-HDAC4 significantly increased BCLAF1 expression and further increased Apoptosis. These results indicate that BCLAF1 plays an important role in LMK-235-mediated Apoptosis and may be a potential target for the treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
