Interactions between retinoic acid (RA) receptor (cid:1) (RAR (cid:1) ) and coregulators play a key role in coordinating gene transcription and myeloid differentiation. In patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), the RAR (cid:1) gene is fused with the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) gene via the t(15;17) translocation, resulting in the expression of a PML/RAR (cid:1) fusion protein. Here, we report that topoisomerase II beta (TopoII (cid:2) ) associates with and negatively modulates RAR (cid:1) transcriptional activity and that increased levels of and association with TopoII (cid:2) cause resistance to RA in APL cell lines. Knockdown of TopoII (cid:2) was able to overcome resistance by permitting RA-induced differentiation and increased RA gene expression. Overexpression of TopoII (cid:2) in clones from an RA-sensitive cell line conferred resistance by a reduction in RA-induced expression of target genes and differentiation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays indicated that TopoII (cid:2) is bound to an RA response element and that inhibition of TopoII (cid:2) causes hyperacetylation of histone 3 at lysine 9 and activation of transcription. Our results identify a transcriptional function. Our studies show that TopoII (cid:2) interacts with RAR (cid:3) and negatively modulates RAR (cid:3) activity and that increased levels of TopoII (cid:2) lead to a block in RA-induced granulocytic differentiation. Evidence supporting this model consists of the following observations. (i) TopoII (cid:2) associates with RAR (cid:3) and the RAR (cid:3) portion of PML/RAR (cid:3) in vitro and in vivo. (ii) We observed increased levels of TopoII (cid:2) and interaction in the RA-resistant cell line NB4-MR2. (iii) Expression of TopoII (cid:2) caused inhibition of a (cid:2) RARE-tk-CAT reporter gene in several cell lines. (iv) Downregulation of TopoII (cid:2) , by shRNA or the inhibitor ICRF-193, caused an increase in RA-induced gene expression and granulocytic differentiation and restored RA sensitivity in NB4-MR2 cells. (v) Overexpression of TopoII (cid:2) in clones of the RA-sensitive cell line NB4 conferred RA resistance with a significant reduction in RA-induced differentiation and induction of the RA target gene, RAR (cid:2) . (vi) ChIP experiments indicated that TopoII (cid:2) is associated with the promoter of RAR (cid:2) , and inhibition of TopoII (cid:2) leads to increased histone 3 lysine 9 acetylation at this promoter region.
