Overview of inhibiting NFκB2-mediated mitochondrial-nuclear transcriptional adaptation to overcome AML relapse. ( A ) Mitochondria-targeted drugs such as oligomycin, an ATP synthase blocker (Complex V) can improve the therapeutic efficacy of TKIs; however, mitochondrial damage and stress result in the activation of pro-survival transcription factors of noncanonical NFκB2 in refractory blasts. ( B ) Notably, increased NFκB2 can promote the nuclear gene (nDNA) expression of TFAM , TFB2M , and NRF1 , which are known to be essential for mitochondrial biogenesis and metabolic plasticity, in addition to its activation of a group of pro-inflammatory and pro-survival factors such as CD44/cytokines/receptors (as we reported previously), thus leading to a large cascading effect on homeostatic adaptation to support blast survival and AML relapse energetically and metabolically. Increased NFKB2 enters the mitochondria and binds specific “TTGGGGGGTG” region of D-loop to promote biogenesis and biosynthesis to support the respiratory chain for ATP/metabolites production. ( C ) In this regard, we developed a novel triplet strategy blocking FLT3 signaling, targeting blast mitochondrial energy conversion, and inhibiting NFκB2 simultaneously, which can effectively promote the terminal death of AML blasts and prevent AML relapse.
