    Abstract: Avocatin‐B (Avo‐B), an avocado‐derived 1:1 mixture of the polyhydroxylated alcohols avocadyne (AYNE) and avocadene, eliminated leukemia cells by suppressing fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in vivo and in vitro while sparing healthy blood cells. In this study, ...

    Abstract Avocatin‐B (Avo‐B), an avocado‐derived 1:1 mixture of the polyhydroxylated alcohols avocadyne (AYNE) and avocadene, eliminated leukemia cells by suppressing fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in vivo and in vitro while sparing healthy blood cells. In this study, we identified AYNE as the most potent FAO inhibitor within the Avo‐B mixture capable of inducing cell death in leukemia cells lines (IC₅₀: 3.10 ± 0.14 µM in TEX cells; 11.53 ± 3.32 µM in OCI‐AML2) and patient‐derived acute myeloid leukemia cells. When added individually, the two Avo‐B constituents demonstrated antagonism (Combination Index values >1), highlighting the need for future studies to assess AYNE alone. Together, this work highlighted AYNE as the most potent FAO inhibitor within the Avo‐B mixture. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: This work identifies which of the two molecules in avocatin B (Avo‐B), an avocado‐derived mixture of two molecules with demonstrated human safety, utility against leukemia, insulin resistance and diabetes, is most useful. Therefore, it provides the basis for future clinical studies that will focus on testing and developing the most active Avo‐B constituent.

    Abstract Estrogen receptor (ER) signaling has been widely studied in a variety of solid tumors, where the differential expression of ERα and ERβ subtypes can impact prognosis. ER signaling has only recently emerged as a target of interest in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive hematological malignancy with sub-optimal therapeutic options and poor clinical outcomes. In a variety of tumors, ERα activation has proliferative effects, while ERβ targeting results in cell senescence or death. Aberrant ER expression and hypermethylation have been characterized in AML, making ER targeting in this disease of great interest. This review describes the expression patterns of ERα and ERβ in AML and discusses the differing signaling pathways associated with each of these receptors. Furthermore, we assess how these signaling pathways can be targeted by various selective estrogen receptor modulators to induce AML cell death. We also provide insight into ER targeting in AML and discuss pending questions that require further study.

    Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia is an aggressive disease with limited and nonselective therapeutic options. This study explored the bioactivity and cell death inducing mechanism of diosmetin, a novel compound identified in a nutraceutical screen to impart selective anti-AML activity. Diosmetin, a citrus flavone, induced apoptosis characterized by increases in caspases 8 and 3/7 and the death inducing cytokine TNFα. In fact, through protein and mRNA expression analysis, activity was shown to be dependent on expression of estrogen receptor (ER) β. Treatment with diosmetin also delayed tumor growth in AML mouse xenografts. In summary, these studies highlight diosmetin as a novel therapeutic that induces apoptosis through estrogen receptor β.

    Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematopoietic malignancy that results from the accumulation of undifferentiated myeloid cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow. Limited therapeutics contribute to unfavourable patient outcomes, highlighting the need for novel therapeutics to improve prognosis. We previously demonstrated that shikonin, a constituent of Lithospermum erythrorhizon, preferentially targets bulk AML cells through inhibition of electron transport chain complex II. In this study, we aim to further characterize the anti-leukemia effects of shikonin in vitro and in vivo. AML cell lines and patient-derived cells were used to assess the cytotoxic effect of shikonin in vitro and in vivo. Respirometry, stable-isotope tracing, flow cytometry and immunoblotting were used to assess the metabolic changes which precede shikonin-mediated cell death. Shikonin induced cytotoxicity in AML cell lines and patient-derived cells while sparing normal hematopoietic cells through a reactive-oxygen species (ROS) dependent mechanism. Shikonin (2.5 mg/kg) reduced patient-derived AML cell engraftment in mouse bone marrow without toxicity. Mechanistically, it increased mitochondrial ROS, impaired oxidative tricarboxylic acid cycling, and reprogrammed metabolism towards glycolysis. Chronic cellular exposure to shikonin resulted in a unique phenotype characterized by decreased mitochondrial activity and increased glycolysis. Consistent with this, cells with increased glycolytic and antioxidant capacity were less sensitive to shikonin. Together, these results highlight shikonin as a mitochondria-targeting agent and provide further insight into its anti-AML activity.
