https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Axitinib.html Most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remain uncurable and require novel therapeutic methods. Gain-of-function FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) mutations are present in 30-40% of AML patients and serve as an attractive therapeutic target. In addition, FLT3 is aberrantly expressed on blasts in > 90% of patients with AML, making the FLT3 ligand-based drug conjugate a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of patients with AML. Here, E. coli was used as a host to express recombinant human FLT3 ligand (rhFL), which was used as a specific vehicle to deliver cytotoxic drugs to FLT3 + AML cells. Recombinant hFL was expressed and purified from induced recombinant BL21 (DE3) E. coli. Purified rhFL and emtansine (DM1) were conjugated by an N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate (SPDP) linker. We evaluated the potency of the conjugation product FL-DM1 against FLT3-expressing AML cells by examining viability, apoptosis and the cell cycle. The activation of proteins related to the activata bioactive form in the periplasm of recombinant E. coli. FL can be used as a specific vehicle to deliver DM1 into FLT3-expressing AML cells. FL-DM1 exhibited cytotoxicity in FLT3-expressing AML cell lines and primary AML cells. FL-DM1 may have potential clinical applications in treating patients with FLT3-positive AML. Our data demonstrated that soluble rhFL can be produced in a bioactive form in the periplasm of recombinant E. coli. FL can be used as a specific vehicle to deliver DM1 into FLT3-expressing AML cells. FL-DM1 exhibited cytotoxicity in FLT3-expressing AML cell lines and primary AML cells. FL-DM1 may have potential clinical applications in treating patients with FLT3-positive AML. Mental health remains a neglected issue on the global health policy agenda, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), and the translation of research evidence into policy and practice is slow.
