    Combinational inhibition of SMYD3 and DOT1L induces enhanced growth arrest and differentiation in AML . A , synergistic effect of the combination of BCI-121 and <t>EPZ5676</t> in MOLM-13 and THP-1 cells was analyzed by MTS assay after incubating cells with a serial diluted mixture at a fixed ratio of the two inhibitors. CI is plotted against the fraction effect. The reference line indicates CI = 1. CI values below 1 indicate synergism between the two inhibitors. B–D , co-treatment with BCI-121 and EPZ5676 led to enhanced inhibitory activity against the growth of AML cells. After being incubated with BCI-121 with or without EPZ5676 for 72 h, MOLM-13 and THP-1 cells were harvested, and then subjected to Western blotting analysis ( B ), dynamic cell counting ( C ), or colony formation ( D ), respectively. E– G , co-treatment with BCI-121 and EPZ5676 led to enhanced differentiation in AML cells. After exposed to BCI-121 with or without EPZ5676 for 72 h, MOLM-13 and THP-1 cells were subjected to Wright-Giemsa staining ( E ) and flow cytometry analysis for CD11b ( F ) or CD14 ( G ).

H1.2 input protein amount of Dot1l −/− ESCs is adjusted to match that in WT ESCs and IP protein loading was adjusted proportionally according to the input. The ratio of IP protein/input protein from Dot1l −/− sample was normalized to that from WT ESC sample, which is set as 1. Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m. ( n = 3 independent experiments). ( B ) Western blot analysis of H1.2 levels in Dot1l −/− ESCs treated with the inhibitor of NAE (MLN4924) (left) and quantification (right). DMSO treated sample was included as a control. β-Actin was used as a loading control. The ratio of H1.2/β-actin protein from Dot1l −/− samples was normalized to that from WT ESC + DMSO sample, which is set as 1. Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m. ( n = 3 independent experiments).

( n = 3 independent experiments). ns: non-significant, *** P < 0.001 in Student's t -test. ( E ) qPCR analysis of the expression of MERVL after overexpression of H1.2K64R in Dot1l −/− ESCs. Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m. ( n = 3 independent experiments). *** P < 0.001 in Student's t -test. Ctrl OE: control vector overexpression; K, Lysine; R, Arginine. ( F ) Western blot analysis of ubiquitination after immunoprecipitation with H1.2 antibody after overexpression of H1.2K64R in Dot1l −/− ESCs (left) and quantification (right). IP was done with anti-H1.2 antibody. 1.25% input was loaded as a control. H1.2 input protein amount of Dot1l −/− ESCs and H1.2K64R OE are adjusted to match that in WT ESCs and IP protein loading was adjusted proportionally according to the input.

( G ) Schematic of Dot1l repressing MERVL in ESCs. Histone H1 is loaded to chromatin by Dot1l and Npm1 to maintain the repression of MERVL. Conversely, in the absence of Dot1l, histone H1 dissociates from chromatin and its protein level decreases, resulting in de-repression of MERVL transcription.
