As a member of transcription factor E-Twenty Six (ETS) family, ETS variant 6 (ETV6) plays significant role in hematopoiesis and embryonic development. ETV6 dysexpression also involved in the occurrence, de-velopment and progression of cancers and leukemia. In current work, we hypothesized that ETV6 plays a role in erythroid differentiation of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). We found the protein expression level of ETV6 was significantly upregulated during hemin-induced erythroid differentiation of K562 cells. More-over, overexpression of ETV6 inhibited erythroid differentiation in hemin-induced K562 cells with decreased numbers of benzidine-positive cells and decreased expression levels of erythroid differentiation specific markers glycophorin (GPA), CD71, hemoglobin A (HBA), alpha-globin, gamma-globin and epsilon-globin. Conversely, ETV6 knockdown promoted erythroid differentiation in hemin-induced K562 cells. Furthermore, ETV6 expression level slightly positively with the proliferation capacity of K562 cells treated with hemin. Mechanistically, ETV6 overexpression inhibited fibrosarcoma/mitogen activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase/extra-cellular regulated protein kinase (Raf/MEK/ERK) pathway, ETV6 knockdown activated the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway. Collectively, the current work demonstrates that ETV6 plays an inhibitory role in the regulation of K562 cell erythroid differentiation via Raf/MEK/ERK pathway, it would be a potentially therapeutic target for dyserythropoiesis.
