{Abstract}: Bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) can promote the growth of Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play essential roles in the proliferation and apoptosis resistance of Ph + ALL cells. In our previous study, inhibiting histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) decreases the proliferation of Ph + ALL cells. However, little is known regarding how HDAC1 in BMSCs of Ph + ALL patients affects the imatinib (IM) resistance. Therefore, the present work examined the roles of HDAC1 in BMSCs. Overexpression of HDAC1 was found in BMSCs of Ph + ALL patients with IM resistance. In addition, the Ph + ALL cell line SUP-B15 was co-cultured with BMSCs after lentivirus transfection for regulating HDAC1 expression. Knockdown of HDAC1 within BMSCs elevated the IM-mediated SUP-B15 cell apoptosis, while increasing HDAC1 expression had an opposite effect. IL-6 in BMSCs, which is an important factor for the microenvironment-associated chemoresistance, showed evident up-regulation in HDAC1-upregulated BMSCs and down-regulation in HDAC1-downregulated BMSCs. While recombinant IL-6 (rIL-6) can reversed the sensitivity of SUP-B15 cells to IM induced by downregulating HDAC1 expression in BMSCs. HDAC1 showed positive regulation on IL-6 transcription and secretion. Moreover, IL-6 secretion induced by HDAC1 in BMSCs might enhance IM resistance in Ph + ALL cells. With regard to the underlying molecular mechanism, NF-κB, an important signal responsible for IL-6 transcription in BMSCs, mediated the HDAC1-regulated IL-6 expression. Collectively, this study facilitated to develop HDAC1 inhibitors based not only the corresponding direct anti-Ph + ALL activity but also the regulation of bone marrow microenvironment.
