Although chemotherapy using CHOP-based protocol induces remission in most cases of canine multicentric high-grade B-cell lymphoma (mhBCL), some cases develop early relapse during the first induction protocol. In this study, we examined the gene expression profiles of canine mhBCL before chemotherapy and investigated their associations with early relapse during the first whole CHOP-based protocol. Twenty-five cases of mhBCL treated with CHOP-based protocol as first induction chemotherapy were included in this study. Sixteen cases completed the first whole CHOP-based protocol without relapse (S-group), and nine developed relapse during the chemotherapy (R-group). RNA-seq was performed on samples from neoplastic lymph nodes. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were extracted by the comparison of gene expression profiles between S- and R-groups, and the differences in the expression levels of these genes were validated by RT-qPCR. Extracted 179 DEGs included the genes related to chemokine CC motif ligand, T-cell receptor signaling pathway, and PD-L1 expression and PD-1 checkpoint pathway. We focused on chemokine CC motif ligand, and CCL4 was confirmed to be significantly downregulated in the R-group (P=0.039). We also focused on the genes related to T-cell signaling pathway, and CD3E (P=0.039), ITK (P=0.023), and LAT (P=0.023) genes were confirmed to be significantly upregulated in the R-group. The current results suggest that both changes in tumor cells and the interactions between tumor cells and immune cells are associated with the efficacy of the chemotherapy for first remission induction.

Transport of small molecules across the cell membrane is a crucial biological mechanism for the maintenance of the cell activity. ABC transporter family is a huge group in the transporter membrane proteins and actively transports the substrates using the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. In humans, there are 48 distinct genes for ABC transporters. A variation of a single amino acid in the amino acid sequence of ABC transporter has been known to be linked with certain disease. The mechanism of the onset of the disease by the variation is, however, still unclear. Recent progress in the method to measure the structures of huge membrane proteins has enabled determination of the 3D structures of ABC transporters and the accumulation of coordinate data of ABC transporter has enabled us to obtain clues for the onset of the disease caused by a single variation of amino acid residue. We compared the structures of ABC transporter in apo and ATP-binding forms and found a possible conformation shift around pivot-like residues in the transmembrane domains. When this conformation change in ABC transporter and the location of pathogenic variation were compared, we found a reasonable match between the two, explaining the onset of the disease by the variation. They likely cause impairment of the pivot-like movement, weakening of ATP binding and weakening of membrane surface interactions. These findings will give a new interpretation of the variations on ABC transporter genes and pave a way to analyse the effect of variation on protein structure and function.
