Natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) NKTCL have a very poor prognosis, and effective treatment options are lacking, highlighting the urgent need for new therapeutic strategies. Here, researchers found that interleukin-2-inducible T-cell kinase (ITK) expression levels were elevated in NKTCL cells and patient tumors. Higher ITK expression levels were associated with a worse clinical prognosis. In vitro experiments showed that ITK knockdown inhibited NKTCL cell growth, induced apoptosis, caused cell cycle arrest, and impaired colony formation ability; while ITK overexpression accelerated cell proliferation. In vivo experiments demonstrated that ITK knockdown significantly inhibited lymphoma growth in a mouse model, suggesting that ITK is a potential therapeutic target. Mechanistic studies revealed that ITK knockdown inhibits NKTCL cell growth by attenuating the oncogenic NF-κB signaling pathway, a mechanism revealed through transcriptome sequencing analysis and further validated by in vitro experiments and in vivo NKTCL models.

Considering the widespread expression of ITK in NKTCL and its prognostic significance, researchers explored the potential of targeting ITK in NKTCL treatment. They constructed ITK-overexpressing NK-YS and YTS cell lines, which normally exhibit low ITK expression (Figure 1A). The results showed that ITK-overexpressing cells had significantly faster growth rates (Figure 1B and C), indicating a carcinogenic role for ITK. Using KHYG-1 and YT cells with high ITK expression, researchers performed ITK gene knockdown using a Tet-on inducible system. In this system, ITK expression was effectively downregulated in shITK#1 and shITK#2 cells after treatment with 4 μg/mL Dox for 48 hours (Figure 1D). Next, the researchers cultured the stably transfected cells with 4 μg/mL Dox for 5 days and recorded the cell growth curves. The results showed that ITK gene knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation of KHYG-1 and YT cells (Figure 1E and F), indicating that ITK plays a crucial role in NKTCL cell growth.
