Description

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is caused by an abnormal proliferation of immature B-cells or T-cells and occurs mainly in children.[1] Among various subtypes of ALL, some are characterized by the overactivation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. In such cases, treatment may include JAK inhibitors e.g. ruxolitinib.[2] The aim of this study was to evaluate the biochemical changes of B-ALL cells, treated with ruxolitinib, with the use of Raman imaging paired with machine learning statistical analysis methods. We used in vitro models of B-ALL cell lines that harbor (MUTZ5) or lack JAK mutation (SEM). Spectroscopic markers of biochemical changes were defined with the use of supervised (PLS) and unsupervised (PCA) chemometric analysis methods. MUTZ5 cells treated with ruxolitinib showed an increased content of lipidic structures and proteins compared to their untreated counterparts, while no similar effect was observed for SEM cells.
The „Label-free and rapid optical imaging, detection and sorting of leukemia cells” project is carried out within the Team-Net programme of the Foundation for Polish Science co-financed by the EU.
