Abstract

Aims: To explore the expression and methylation levels of GIPC2 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), discuss the mechanism of GIPC2 in AML and provide new strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of AML. Methods: qPCR, western blotting, cell counting kit-8 assay, bisulfite sequencing andother experiments were used in this study. Results: The expression of GIPC2 was found to be downregulated in AML and is mainly affected by DNA promoter methylation. Decitabine can demethylate the promoter region of GIPC2, and GIPC2 expression is upregulated after demethylation. Overexpression of GIPC2 in HL-60 cells can induce apoptosis by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT pathway. Conclusion: Our findings identify that GIPC2 is associated with the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and may represent a potential therapeutic target and biomarker for the management of AML.
