Decitabine Rescues Cisplatin Resistance in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Cisplatin resistance in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) reduces survival. In this study we hypothesized that methylation of key genes mediates cisplatin resistance. We determined whether a demethylating drug, decitabine, could augment the anti-proliferative and apoptotic effects of cisplatin on SCC-25/CP, a cisplatin-resistant tongue SCC cell line. We showed that decitabine treatment restored cisplatin sensitivity in SCC-25/CP and significantly reduced the cisplatin dose required to induce apoptosis. We then created a xenograft model with SCC-25/CP and determined that decitabine and cisplatin combination treatment resulted in significantly reduced tumor growth and mechanical allodynia compared to control. To establish a gene classifier we quantified methylation in cancer tissue of cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant HNSCC patients. Cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant patient tumors had distinct methylation profiles. When we quantified methylation and expression of genes in the classifier in HNSCC cells in vitro, we showed that decitabine treatment of cisplatin-resistant HNSCC cells reversed methylation and gene expression toward a cisplatin-sensitive profile. The study provides direct evidence that decitabine restores cisplatin sensitivity in in vitro and in vivo models of HNSCC. Combination treatment of cisplatin and decitabine significantly reduces HNSCC growth and HNSCC pain. Furthermore, gene methylation could be used as a biomarker of cisplatin-resistance.     

Prolonged wild-type p53 protein accumulation and cisplatin resistance

The major limitation for the chemotherapeutic use of DNA-damaging agent cisplatin is the development of resistance in initially responsive tumors. One of the main pathways regulating cell survival following DNA damage is the p53 pathway. In this study we compared the cisplatin-induced response of p53 protein and its downstream targets p21WAF-1 and Mdm2 in the cisplatin-sensitive ovarian carcinoma cell line A2780 and its cisplatin-resistant derivative CP70. A higher dose of cisplatin and a longer exposure time was required to achieve the same level of p53, p21WAF-1, and Mdm2 protein accumulation in the cisplatin-resistant CP70 cells versus cisplatin-sensitive A2780 cells. A significant difference between the two cell lines was observed in cisplatin-induced stabilization of p53 protein. The p53 half-life increased 31-fold in CP70 cells compared to only 6-fold in A2780 cells. In contrast, there was no difference in p21WAF-1 half-life between the two cell lines. These results demonstrate that in A2780 and CP70 cells resistance to cisplatin correlates with prolonged p53 protein stabilization and accumulation.     

Decreased accumulation of [14C]carboplatin in human cisplatin-resistant cells results from reduced energy-dependent uptake

We have isolated cisplatin-resistant human liver carcinoma (7404-CP20) cells with reduced accumulation of cisplatin and other drugs (methotrexate, arsenate, and arsenite) to which these cells are cross-resistant. To determine whether the reduction of drug accumulation in cisplatin-resistant cells results from impaired uptake or from active efflux, [(14)C]carboplatin was used for kinetic analysis of drug uptake and efflux. We demonstrate here that the uptake of [(14)C]carboplatin in 7404 parental cells is time, temperature, and energy dependent, and that the rate of uptake is reduced in 7404-CP20 cells. Efflux of [(14)C]carboplatin in cisplatin-resistant cells was comparable to efflux in the parental cisplatin-sensitive cells. There was little effect of temperature (between 37 degrees C and 4 degrees C) on efflux in cisplatin-resistant cells. Immunoblotting with specific antibodies directed to MRP1 and MRP2 (cMOAT) also showed that expression of these two ABC transporter genes was considerably reduced in 7404-CP20 cells and another cisplatin-resistant cell line KB-CP20, in contradistinction to previous studies suggesting that MRP might be responsible for cisplatin efflux. To rule out a generalized defect in uptake of small molecules, fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis of rhodamine 123 uptake showed that there was no difference between cisplatin-sensitive and -resistant cells. The presence of a pleiotropic defect in uptake of [(14)C]carboplatin, [(3)H]methotrexate, [(73)As]arsenate, and [(73)As]arsenite in cisplatin-resistant cells, in association with reduced expression of related cell surface proteins as demonstrated in our previous work, suggests a novel mechanism for acquisition of resistance to cisplatin associated with reduced activity of many different specific uptake systems.     

Alpha-TEA plus cisplatin reduces human cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cell tumor burden and metastasis

A novel nonhydrolyzable ether-linked acetic acid analog of vitamin E, 2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2R-(4R,8R,12-trimethyltridecyl)-chroman-6-yloxyacetic acid (alpha-TEA) in combination with cisplatin, reduces tumor burden of A2780/cp70 (cp70) cisplatin-resistant human ovarian cancer cells xenografted into immune compromised nude mice. Two xenograft studies were conducted using cp70 cells stably expressing green fluorescent protein (cp70-GFP) subcutaneously transplanted into NU/NU mice. For studies 1 and 2, alpha-TEA was formulated in liposomes and delivered by aerosol such that approximately 36 microg and 72 microg of alpha-TEA were deposited in the respiratory tract of each mouse each day, respectively. Cisplatin at 5 mg/kg was administered by intraperitoneal injections once weekly for the first 3 weeks in Study 1 and on the third and 10th days following treatment initiation in Study 2. The combination alpha-TEA + cisplatin treatment reduced tumor burden and metastasis of cp70-GFP cells in comparison to control mice or mice treated with alpha-TEA or cisplatin singly. A significant reduction (P < 0.001) in growth of subcutaneous transplanted tumors was obtained with alpha-TEA + cisplatin for both studies. Visible metastases were observed in the lungs of animals from control and cisplatin-treated groups but not in animals from the alpha-TEA- or alpha-TEA + cisplatin-treated groups. The alpha-TEA + cisplatin significantly reduced the total number of lung and axillary lymph node micrometastasis (P < 0.03 and P < 0.0001, respectively). Analyses of tumor sections showed the alpha-TEA + cisplatin treatment group, in comparison to control, to have a significantly lower level of cell proliferation (Ki-67 staining; P < 0.0001) and a significantly higher level of apoptosis (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling [TUNEL]; P < 0.0001). In summary, combinations of alpha-TEA + cisplatin significantly reduced tumor burden and metastases in a xenograft model of cisplatin-resistant human ovarian cancer cells. These data show promise for combination alpha-TEA + cisplatin chemotherapy for ovarian cancer.     

Cisplatin resistance is associated with deregulation in protein kinase C-delta

Proteolytic activation of protein kinase C (PKC)-delta has been associated with cell death induced by the DNA damaging agent cisplatin. In the present study, we have examined if PKCdelta is affected when cells acquire resistance to cisplatin. The level of PKCdelta was elevated in cisplatin-resistant HeLa (HeLa/CP) cells compared to parental HeLa cells. Prolonged cellular exposure to the PKC activator phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), caused downregulation of PKCdelta in HeLa cells but not in HeLa/CP cells. Treatment of HeLa cells with PDBu resulted in the translocation of PKCdelta from the cytosol to the membrane but it failed to induce PKCdelta translocation in HeLa/CP cells. PDBu, however, induced translocation and downregulation of PKCalpha in both HeLa and HeLa/CP cells. The ability of PDBu to enhance cisplatin-induced cell death was attenuated in cisplatin-resistant HeLa cells. Thus, a deregulation in PKCdelta was associated with reduced cellular sensitivity to cisplatin.     

Concentration-dependent collateral sensitivity of cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer cell sublines

The cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer cell sublines, SNU-601/Cis2 and /Cis10, were 49 and >530 times more resistant to cisplatin, respectively, compared with the drug-sensitive cells, SNU-601/WT. The SNU-601/Cis2 showed cross-resistance to carboplatin, heptaplatin, doxorubicin, mitomycin C, and 5-fluorouracil compared with the SNU-601/WT whereas the SNU-601/Cis10 displayed collateral sensitivity to these drugs with the exception of cisplatin compared with the SNU-601/Cis2, suggesting that the cross-resistance and collateral sensitivity of cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer cells are dependent upon cisplatin concentrations. Altered expression of the antioxidant and transporter genes (metallothionein, catalase, superoxide dismutases, P-glycoprotein, and the breast cancer resistance protein) was involved in these phenotypes of the cisplatin-resistant gastric cancer cell lines.
