DOCK2 knockdown in transplanted MV4;11 cells enhanced the treatment benefit of ara-C in NSG mice, both alone and in combination with MK8776. (A) Survival of immunodeficient NSG mice transplanted with MV4;11 cells (0.6 × 106 cells) after daily intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections of vehicle, ara-C (50 mg/kg), MK8776 (10 mg/kg), MK1775 (15 mg/kg), ara-C+MK8776, or ara-C+MK1775 for 3 consecutive days. When combined with ara-C, MK8776 and MK1775 were injected 30 min after the ara-C injection. (B) Bone marrow blast percentage was measured 7 days after the start of treatment. The combined treatment with ara-C and MK8776 resulted in significantly reduced bone marrow blast percentage in NSG mice transplanted with DOCK2 KD MV4;11 cells, compared with mice treated with either single agent. *P<0.05; **P<0.01. C: mice transplanted with MV4;11 cells expressing control short hairpin (sh)RNA; KD: mice transplanted with MV4;11 cells expressing shRNA against DOCK2.
