    Abstract:
    TP53 mutation is an indicator of poor prognostic in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Worse still, CLL patients with TP53 mutation are associated with poor efficacy to current chemotherapeutic, such as Fludarabine. Here, we confirmed that high expression of HDAC1 in CLL patients with TP53 mutation, which is closely related to poor prognosis and drug-resistance. Subsequently, we demonstrated Entinostat (HDAC1 inhibitor) combination with Fludarabine significantly induced apoptosis in TP53 mutations CLL cells. Its mechanism was associated with up-regulation of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax and the down-regulation of HDAC1, HO-1 and BCL-2 proteins. More importantly, we also confirmed that upregulation of HDAC1 could resistant Entinostat-induced apoptosis in TP53 mutations CLL cells by activating the HDAC1/P38/HO-1 pathway. In vivo, we found that Entinostat combination with Fludarabine significantly induced tumor cells apoptosis and prolong survival time in xenograft mouse model. Finally, combining vitro and vivo experiments, we presented the first demonstration that Entinostat combination with Fludarabine had a synergistic effect on the induction of apoptosis in TP53 mutations CLL cells. In conclusion, we provide valuable pre-clinical experimental evidence for the treatment of CLL patients with poor prognosis, especially for TP53 mutations.
