Interferons (IFNs) are cytokines with potent antineoplastic and antiviral properties. IFNα has significant clinical activity in the treatment of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), but the precise mechanisms by which it acts are not well understood. Here, we demonstrate that chromatin assembly factor 1 subunit B (CHAF1B), an Unc-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1)-interactive protein in the nuclear compartment of malignant cells, is overexpressed in patients with MPN. Remarkably, targeted silencing ofCHAF1Benhances transcription of IFNα-stimulated genes and promotes IFNα-dependent antineoplastic responses in primary MPN progenitor cells. Taken together, our findings indicate that CHAF1B is a promising newly identified therapeutic target in MPN and that CHAF1B inhibition in combination with IFNα therapy might offer a novel strategy for treating patients with MPN.Significance:Our findings raise the potential for clinical development of drugs targeting CHAF1B to enhance IFN antitumor responses in the treatment of patients with MPN and should have important clinical translational implications for the treatment of MPN and possibly in other malignancies.
