Abstract
Understanding the mechanisms by which cancer cells switch between different adaptive states and evade therapeutic interventions is essential for clinical management. In this study, the in vivo cellular dynamics of a new chronic myeloid leukaemia cell line displaying altered phenotype and resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors were investigated in correlation with their parental cells for invasiveness/metastasis, angiogenic potential and population kinetics. We showed that the cells exhibiting drug resistance and plastic phenotype possess an increased capacity for invasion compared to their parental cells, that exposure to imatinib mesylate has the potential to enhance cellular motility and that in a leukaemic cell population, even a minority of plastic cells exhibit improved migratory ability. Furthermore, we show that these plastic cells have angiogenic and extravasation potential. The present study provides significant insights into the cellular dynamics displayed by a TKI-resistant, phenotypically plastic CML cell line, using a zebrafish (Danio rerio) xenograft model.
