Distinct associations of NEDD4L expression with genetic abnormalities and prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia

Abstract Background There is mounting evidence that demonstrated the association of aberrant NEDD4L expression with diverse human cancers. However, the expression pattern and clinical implication of NEDD4L in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poorly defined. Methods We systemically determined NED...

However, the expression pattern and clinical implication of NEDD4L in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poorly defined. Methods We systemically determined NEDD4L expression with its clinical significance in AML by both public data and our research cohort. Moreover, biological functions of NEDD4L in leukemogenesis were further tested by in vitro experiments. Results By the public data, we identified that low NEDD4L expression was correlated with AML among diverse human cancers. Expression of NEDD4L was remarkably decreased in AML compared with controls, and was confirmed by our research cohort. Clinically, low expression of NEDD4L was correlated with greatly lower age, higher white blood cells, and higher bone marrow/peripheral blood blasts. Moreover, NEDD4L underexpression was positively correlated with normal karyotype, FLT3 and NPM1 mutations, but negatively associated with complex karyotype and TP53 mutations. Importantly, the association between NEDD4L expression and survival was also discovered in cytogenetically normal AML patients. Finally, a number of 1024 RNAs and 91 microRNAs were identified to be linked to NEDD4L expression in AML. Among the negatively correlated microRNAs, miR-10a was also discovered as a microRNA that may directly target NEDD4L. Further functional studies revealed that NEDD4L exhibited anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects in leukemic cell line K562. Conclusions Our findings indicated that NEDD4L underexpression, as a frequent event in AML, was associated with genetic abnormalities and prognosis in AML.
