Glucose deprivation, a pathophysiological cell condition, causes up-regulation of GRP78 and induction of etoposide resistance in human cancer cells. The induction of drug resistance can be partly explained by the fact that GRP78 can block activation of caspase-7 induced by treatment with etoposide. Therefore, downregulating GRP78 expression may be a novel strategy anticancer drug development. Based on that premise, we established a screening program for anticancer agents that exhibit preferential cytotoxic activity for etoposide-resistant cancer cells under glucose-deprived conditions. We recently isolated an active compound, AR-054, from the culture broth of Streptomyces sp., which prevents stress-induced etoposide resistance in vitro. AR-054 was identified as piericidin A, a prototypical compound, by ESI-MS analysis and various NMR spectroscopic methods. Here, we showed that piericidin A suppressed the accumulation of GRP78 protein and was also highly toxic to etoposide-resistant HT-29 cells, with IC50 values for colony formation of 6.4 and 7.7 nM under 2-deoxyglucose supplemented and glucose-deprived conditions, respectively. Interestingly, piericidin A had no effect under normal growth conditions. Therefore, we suggest that piericidin A prevents up-regulation of GRP78, and exhibits cytotoxicity in glucose-deprived HT-29 cells that are resistant to etoposide. 相似文献

Although much progress has been achieved in the development of cancer therapies in recent decades, problems continue to arise particularly with respect to chemotherapy due to resistance to and low specificity of currently available drugs. Host defense peptides as effector molecules of innate immunity represent a novel strategy for the development of alternative anticancer drug molecules. These cationic amphipathic peptides are able to discriminate between neoplastic and non-neoplastic cells interacting specifically with negatively charged membrane components such as phosphatidylserine (PS), sialic acid or heparan sulfate, which differ between cancer and non-cancer cells. Furthermore, an increased number of microvilli has been found on cancer cells leading to an increase in cell surface area, which may in turn enhance their susceptibility to anticancer peptides. Thus, part of this review will be devoted to the differences in membrane composition of non-cancer and cancer cells with a focus on the exposure of PS on the outer membrane. Normally, surface exposed PS triggers apoptosis, which can however be circumvented by cancer cells by various means.Host defense peptides, which selectively target differences between cancer and non-cancer cell membranes, have excellent tumor tissue penetration and can thus reach the site of both primary tumor and distant metastasis. Since these molecules kill their target cells rapidly and mainly by perturbing the integrity of the plasma membrane, resistance is less likely to occur. Hence, a chapter will also describe studies related to the molecular mechanisms of membrane damage as well as alternative non-membrane related mechanisms. In vivo studies have demonstrated that host defense peptides display anticancer activity against a number of cancers such as e.g. leukemia, prostate, ascite and ovarian tumors, yet so far none of these peptides has made it on the market. Nevertheless, optimization of host defense peptides using various strategies to enhance further selectivity and serum stability is expected to yield novel anticancer drugs with improved properties in respect of cancer cell toxicity as well as reduced development of drug resistance. 相似文献

The endothelium is the first physiological barrier between blood and tissues and can be injured by physical or chemical stress, particularly by the drugs used in cancer therapy. We found that four anticancer agents: etoposide, doxorubicin, bleomycin and paclitaxel induced apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) (as judged by DNA fragmentation) with a time- and concentration-dependent decrease in bcl-2 protein but without the involvement of p53. As revealed by immunoblotting, bax protein was expressed in HUVECs treated with 1 mg/ml etoposide whereas bcl-2 protein disappeared. Oncosis occurred parallel to apoptosis with the release of lactate dehydrogenase into the supernatant, and, for doxorubicin and etoposide with the inversion of the distribution of angiotensin I-converting enzyme between supernatant and cells. Among the four tested anticancer drugs, only doxorubicin induced an oxidative stress, with significative malondialdehyde production. Thus, human endothelial cells in confluent cultures seem to be in an equilibrium of resistance to apoptosis related to bcl-2 expression; this equilibrium can be disrupted by a chemical stress, such as the antiproliferative drugs known as pro-apoptotic for tumour cells. For doxorubicin and bleomycin, this cellular toxicity can be related to their unwanted effects in human cancer therapy. Low doses of doxorubicin, paclitaxel or etoposide, however, could induce apoptosis of endothelial cells of new vessels surrounding the tumour, thus leading to specific vessel regression with minimal toxic effects for the endothelium of the other vessels. These findings provide evidence of relationships between endothelial toxicity of anticancer drugs and the key role of bcl-2 for resistance of endothelium cells toward apoptosis; moreover lack of p53 and bax in quiescent cells contributes to resistance of endothelial cells to DNA-damaging agents. 相似文献

The translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) displays growth-promoting and antiapoptotic properties. To gain information on the role of TCTP in cancer disease, we studied the modulation of TCTP and cell survival under stress conditions on tumor cell lines of different origins. When cancer cells were exposed to a mild oxidative stress, such low doses of Arsenic trioxide (ATO) or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), up-regulation of TCTP was observed in cells survived to the treatment. Differently, a strong oxidative hit provided by ATO combined with glutathione (GSH) depletion or condition of glucose deprivation caused a down-modulation of TCTP followed by cell death.Clones with a forced expression of TCTP or with silenced TCTP were obtained from the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. The sensitivity to oxidative stress was strongly enhanced in down-modulated TCTP cells while decreasing in cells with high levels of TCTP.Together these results indicate that TCTP is a survival factor that protects cancer cells from oxidative stress-induced cell-death. We propose TCTP as a “stress hallmark” that may be exploited as a therapeutic target to decrease the resistance of cancer cells to anticancer therapy. 相似文献

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive of brain tumors and is extremely insensitive to anticancer drugs. Studies have attributed the ABC transporter Mrp1 (ABCC1, multiple-drug resistance protein 1) with conferring chemoresistance in this tumor by extrusion of a wide spectrum of anticancer drugs. Therefore it is crucial to search for and investigate inhibitors of Mrp1 activity in GBM cells, particularly those that could be safe as chemosensitizers to anticancer drugs in clinical studies. We find that in primary cultured or T98G GBM cells exposed to therapeutic plasma concentrations of FK506 (tacrolimus), the expression of Mrp1 was decreased in a dose-dependent manner. The activity of this transporter, measured by CFDA fluorescent substrate extrusion, decreased significantly in primary cultured GBM cells on exposure to FK506 at concentrations of 15 ng/ml. When GBM cells were exposed to anticancer drugs vincristine, etoposide or taxol, cell viability was not affected. However when the anticancer drugs were assayed in combination with FK506, cell viability was significantly decreased by as much as 50% in GBM primary culture. We conclude that FK506 could be a valuable tool for chemosensitization of GBM cells, offering a possible improvement to the current poor therapy available for high-grade human gliomas. 相似文献

Adherent epithelial cancer cells, such as colon cancer cells, are much more resistant to anthracyclines and to many other major anticancer agents when the cell population reaches confluence. Our purpose is to analyze the mechanisms of this confluence dependent resistance (CDR) that is probably the major cause of the natural resistance of solid tumors to chemotherapy. Some drugs (anthracyclines, etoposide and vincristine) but not others (cisplatin, melphalan and 5-fluorouracil) accumulate less in confluent than in nonconfluent cells. A decrease of the passive transmembrane drug transport in confluent cells is associated to a reduced membrane fluidity. However, the predominant mechanism of CDR is an increase in the intrinsic resistance of the DNA to the drug-induced damage. This mechanism is now relatively well understood for anthracyclines and etoposide that act mainly through an inhibition of the topoisomerase II: as the enzyme level is low in slowly proliferating confluent cells, the number of drug-induced DNA strand breaks is lower than in rapidly growing nonconfluent cells which highly express the topoisomerase II gene. Mechanisms of CDR for the other drugs are less clear and could involve an increase in the ability to repair damaged DNA. Attempts to circumvent CDR could consist in the stimulation of the cell proliferation by hormones or growth factors, or in the recruitment of quiescent cells into the S and G2 phases by previous treatment of confluent cells with infratoxic concentration of DNA-damaging agents. 相似文献

Dynamic interactions between intracellular networks regulate cellular homeostasis and responses to perturbations. Targeted therapy is aimed at perturbing oncogene addiction pathways in cancer, however, development of acquired resistance to these drugs is a significant clinical problem. A network‐based computational analysis of global gene expression data from matched sensitive and acquired drug‐resistant cells to lapatinib, an EGFR/ErbB2 inhibitor, revealed an increased expression of the glucose deprivation response network, including glucagon signaling, glucose uptake, gluconeogenesis and unfolded protein response in the resistant cells. Importantly, the glucose deprivation response markers correlated significantly with high clinical relapse rates in ErbB2‐positive breast cancer patients. Further, forcing drug‐sensitive cells into glucose deprivation rendered them more resistant to lapatinib. Using a chemical genomics bioinformatics mining of the CMAP database, we identified drugs that specifically target the glucose deprivation response networks to overcome the resistant phenotype and reduced survival of resistant cells. This study implicates the chronic activation of cellular compensatory networks in response to targeted therapy and suggests novel combinations targeting signaling and metabolic networks in tumors with acquired resistance. 相似文献

Reversal of cisplatin and multidrug resistance by ribozyme-mediated glutathione suppression 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Nagata J Kijima H Hatanaka H Asai S Miyachi H Takagi A Miwa T Mine T Yamazaki H Nakamura M Kondo T Scanlon KJ Ueyama Y 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2001,286(2):406-413
gamma-Glutamylcysteine synthetase (gamma-GCS) is a key enzyme in glutathione (GSH) synthesis, and is thought to play a significant role in intracellular detoxification, especially of anticancer drugs. Increased levels of GSH are commonly found in the drug-resistant human cancer cells. We designed a hammerhead ribozyme against gamma-GCS mRNA (anti-gamma-GCS Rz), which specifically down-regulated gamma-GCS gene expression in the HCT-8 human colon cancer cell line. The aim of this study was to reverse the cisplatin and multidrug resistance for anticancer drugs. The cisplatin-resistant HCT-8 cells (HCT-8DDP cells) overexpressed MRP and MDR1 genes, and showed resistance to not only cisplatin (CDDP), but also doxorubicin (DOX) and etoposide (VP-16). We transfected a vector expressing anti-gamma-GCS Rz into the HCT-8DDP cells (HCT-8DDP/Rz). The anti-gamma-GCS Rz significantly suppressed MRP and MDR, and altered anticancer drug resistance. The HCT-8DDP/Rz cells were more sensitive to CDDP, DOX and VP-16 by 1.8-, 4.9-, and 1.5-fold, respectively, compared to HCT-8DDP cells. The anti-gamma-GCS Rz significantly down-regulated gamma-GCS gene expression as well as MRP/MDR1 expression, and reversed resistance to CDDP, DOX and VP-16. These results suggested that gamma-GCS plays an important role in both cisplatin and multidrug resistance in human cancer cells. 相似文献

The 52-aminoacid peptide adrenomedullin (AM) is expressed in the normal and malignant prostate. We have previously shown that prostate cancer cells produce and secrete AM, which acts as an autocrine growth inhibitory factor. We have evaluated in the present study the role of AM in prostate cancer cell apoptosis, induced either by serum deprivation or treatment with the chemotherapeutic agent etoposide (which acts as an inhibitor of topoisomerase II). For this purpose we over-expressed AM in PC-3, DU 145 and LNCaP cells, which were transfected with an expression vector carrying AM. We also treated the parental cell lines with synthetic AM in normal culture conditions and in conditions of induced-apoptosis. After serum removal, AM prevented apoptosis in DU 145 and PC-3 cells, but not in LNCaP cells. When treated with etoposide, AM prevented apoptosis in PC-3 and LNCaP cells, but not in DU 145 cells. Cell cycle analysis demonstrated a significant decrease in the percentage of AM-overexpressing PC-3 cells in the subG0/G1 phase after treatment with etoposide, as compared to the percentage of mock-transfected PC-3 treated cells. Western blot showed that protein levels of phosphorylated ERK1/2 increased in parental PC-3 cells after treatment with etoposide. In PC-3 cells overexpressing AM, phosphorylated ERK1/2 basal levels were lower than basal levels of parental PC-3 cells, and treatment with etoposide did not result in such an increase. Etoposide produced a significant increase in cleaved PARP in parental PC-3 cells. However, PC-3 clones overexpressing AM that were treated with etoposide only showed a mild increase in fragmented PARP. The ratio Bcl-2/Bax was reduced in parental or mock-transfected PC-3 cells after treatment with etoposide. On the contrary, this ratio was not reduced in PC-3 clones with AM overexpression that were treated with etoposide. All these data demonstrate that AM plays a protective role against induced apoptosis in prostate cancer cells. These results may have important implications in prostate cancer resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. 相似文献

Scaffold hybridization of several natural and synthetic anticancer leads led to the consideration of indenoindolones as potential novel anticancer agents. A series of these compounds were prepared by a diversity-feasible synthetic method. They were found to possess anticancer activities with higher potency compared to etoposide and 5-fluorouracil in kidney cancer cells (HEK 293) and low toxicity to corresponding normal cells (Vero). They exerted apoptotic effect with blocking of cell cycle at G2/M phase. 相似文献

Solid tumor development is frequently accompanied by energy-deficient conditions such as glucose deprivation and hypoxia. Follistatin (FST), a secretory protein originally identified from ovarian follicular fluid, has been suggested to be involved in tumor development. However, whether it plays a role in cancer cell survival under energy-deprived conditions remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrated that glucose deprivation markedly enhanced the expression and nucleolar localization of FST in HeLa cells. The nucleolar localization of FST relied on its nuclear localization signal (NLS) comprising the residues 64–87. Localization of FST to the nucleolus attenuated rRNA synthesis, a key process for cellular energy homeostasis and cell survival. Overexpression of FST delayed glucose deprivation-induced apoptosis, whereas down-regulation of FST exerted the opposite effect. These functions depended on the presence of an intact NLS because the NLS-deleted mutant of FST lost the rRNA inhibition effect and the cell protective effect. Altogether, we identified a novel nucleolar function of FST, which is of importance in the modulation of cancer cell survival in response to glucose deprivation. 相似文献

As tumors grow larger, they often experience an insufficient supply of oxygen and nutrients. Hence, cancer cells must develop mechanisms to overcome these stresses. Using an in vitro transformation model where the presence of the simian virus 40 (SV40) small T (ST) antigen has been shown to be critical for tumorigenic transformation, we investigated whether the ST antigen has a role to play in regulating the energy homeostasis of cancer cells. We find that cells expressing the SV40 ST antigen (+ST cells) are more resistant to glucose deprivation-induced cell death than cells lacking the SV40 ST antigen (−ST cells). Mechanistically, we find that the ST antigen mediates this effect by activating a nutrient-sensing kinase, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). The basal level of active, phosphorylated AMPK was higher in +ST cells than in −ST cells, and these levels increased further in response to glucose deprivation. Additionally, inhibition of AMPK in +ST cells increased the rate of cell death, while activation of AMPK in −ST cells decreased the rate of cell death, under conditions of glucose deprivation. We further show that AMPK mediates its effects, at least in part, by inhibiting mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin), thereby shutting down protein translation. Finally, we show that +ST cells exhibit a higher percentage of autophagy than −ST cells upon glucose deprivation. Thus, we demonstrate a novel role for the SV40 ST antigen in cancers, where it functions to maintain energy homeostasis during glucose deprivation by activating AMPK, inhibiting mTOR, and inducing autophagy as an alternate energy source.The localization of most mammalian cells within a 100- to 150-μm distance from blood vessels ensures a continuous supply of oxygen and nutrients, a prerequisite for cell survival. However, tumors often grow beyond this limit, thereby experiencing oxygen and nutrient deprivation (28). Tumors overcome this barrier by initiating neoangiogenesis, a process that supplies new blood vessels (44). However, before neoangiogenesis can set in, incipient tumors must survive the stresses of nutrient deprivation. Therefore, an understanding of the molecular mechanisms that regulate cancer cell survival under conditions of nutrient deprivation is fundamental in cancer biology. Additionally, targeting the ability of cancer cells to survive under nutrient-deprived conditions can be exploited for designing novel cancer therapeutics.Glucose is the major source of energy for mammalian cells. Several types of cancer cells exhibit marked resistance to cell death upon glucose deprivation (22). In this study we have attempted to delineate the mechanisms that allow cancer cells to survive under conditions of glucose deprivation by using human foreskin fibroblasts that have been transformed by the serial introduction of the simian virus 40 (SV40) early region (coding for the large T [LT] and small T [ST] antigens), the catalytic subunit of human telomerase (hTERT), and an oncogenic allele of H-Ras (H-Ras V12) (referred to below as +ST cells) (32). In this model, human cells lacking the ST antigen but expressing the rest of these genetic elements (referred to below as −ST cells) are nontumorigenic (16, 32), highlighting the importance of the ST antigen in human cell transformation. However, little is known about the specific cellular functions moderated by the ST antigen that aid in transformation (3).Since glucose is the major source of energy for mammalian cells, and cancer cells experience glucose deprivation when they are beyond the diffusion limit, we investigated whether the ST antigen has any role to play under conditions of glucose deprivation. We report here a novel link between the ST antigen and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation that enables cancer cell survival under glucose deprivation via inhibition of protein synthesis and activation of autophagy as an alternate energy source. 相似文献

TRAIL (TNF-alpha Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand) is an attractive candidate for anticancer therapy. TRAIL selectively kills tumor cells, without damaging normal cells. It is known that cancer cells can acquire resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs, oxidative stress in high density culture. This phenomenon appears as a multi-cell resistance, cell adhesion-dependent resistance, or density-dependent resistance of tumor cells. However, it is unclear whether such resistance appears in TRAIL-induced apoptosis. We observed that the resistance to izTRAIL of all tumor cell lines used was considerably increased in confluent cultures. The increase in tumor cell resistance in dense populations is not related to their proliferative status. It was shown that the dissociation of calcium-dependent cell-cell contacts with EGTA did not suppress tumor cell resistance to izTRAIL in confluent cultures. This phenomenon of cancer cells resistance to TRAIL-induced apoptosis should be considered in the development of methods of anticancer therapy. 相似文献

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) IE1 plays role in resistance to apoptosis with etoposide in cancer cell line by Cdk2 accumulation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) has many strategies to survive the attack of the host. HCMV infection of host cells induces cellular activation and disturbance of the cell cycle. It is possible that HCMV modulates the behavior of certain cancer cells that are susceptible to HCMV infection. This study was performed to identify the possible mechanism of resistance to apoptotic stimuli in some cancer cell lines by HCMV infection. HCMV-infected cancer cells showed resistance to apoptosis induced by the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide. UMG1-2, which constitutively expresses HCMV immediate-early protein-1 (IE1), had resistance to apoptosis induced by etoposide as compared with the parental cell line U373MG. Measurement of caspases activity with fluorogenic substrates in etoposide-treated U373MG and UMG1-2 cells and the direct activation of caspase-3 with peptides containing arginine-glycine-aspartate in U373MG and UMG1-2 cells revealed that the inhibition level of apoptosis by HCMV IE1 would be upstream of caspase-3 in the caspase cascade pathway. Cellular expression of Cdk2 was increased in UMG1- 2 after etoposide treatment while the expression of E2F-1 in UMG1-2 was decreased as compared with that in U373MG. The Cdk2 inhibitor, roscovitine, decreased the resistance to apoptosis on etoposide-treated UMG1-2. These results suggest that aberrant HCMV infection confers resistance to anticancer drugs on some cancer cells and protects cells from apoptosis, possibly due to the deregulation of cyclin-dependent kinase by HCMV immediate-early protein. 相似文献

A proteomic investigation into etoposide chemo-resistance of neuroblastoma cell lines 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Neuroblastoma, one of the most common pediatric solid tumors, originates from the peripheral sympathetic nervous system and is responsible for approximately 15% of all childhood cancer deaths. Among the several antineoplastic drugs used in neuroblastoma chemotherapeutic protocols, topoisomerase inhibitors (i.e., etoposide) represent the most commonly used. Several resistance mechanisms limit the clinical success of topoisomerase-targeting drugs, mainly reducing the ability of neoplastic cells to start programmed cell death when exposed to antineoplastic drugs. The aim of this study was to determine, by means of proteomics, potential markers of etoposide resistance in human neuroblastoma cell lines as well as to investigate protein levels and modifications possibly involved in the onset of resistance. The etoposide resistant clone showed overexpression of the following proteins: peroxiredoxin 1, beta-galactoside soluble lectin binding protein, vimentin (three protein spots), heat shock 27 kDa protein (two protein spots) and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K. In addition, we also found down-regulation of dUTP pyrophosphatase. This investigation might represent a first step towards the development of novel prognostic markers of neuroblastoma chemotherapy. 相似文献

Anticancer drugs exert their effects on cancer cells by deregulating many pathways linked to cell cycle, apoptosis, etc. but cancer cells gradually become resistive against anticancer drugs, thereby necessitating the development of newer generation anticancer molecules. N-end rule pathway has been shown to be involved in the degradation of many cell cycle and apoptosis-related proteins. However, the involvements of this pathway in cancer are not well established. Recently, we developed a non-peptide-based N-end rule pathway inhibitor, RF-C11 for type 1 and 2 recognition domains of E3 ubiquitin ligases. The inhibitor significantly increased the half-life of potential N-degrons leading to significant physiological changes in vivo. We hypothesized RF-C11 may be used to decipher the N-end rule pathway's role in cancer towards the development of anticancer therapeutics. In this study, we showed that RF-C11, barring noncancer cells, significantly sensitizes cancer cells towards different anticancer agents tested. We further find that the profound cellular sensitization to anticancer drugs was affected by (a) downregulation of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein, an antiapoptotic protein and (b) by stabilization of RAD21, and thereby inhibiting metaphase to anaphase promotion. The study shows that RF-C11 or its analogs may be used as a novel additive in combination therapy against cancer. 相似文献

Hippo signaling is known to maintain balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis via tight regulation of factors, such as metabolic cues, cell-cell contact, and mechanical cues. Cells directly recognize glucose, lipids, and other metabolic cues and integrate multiple signaling pathways, including Hippo signaling, to adjust their proliferation and apoptosis depending on nutrient conditions. Therefore, the dysregulation of the Hippo signaling pathway can promote tumor initiation and progression. Alteration in metabolic cues is considered a major factor affecting the risk of cancer formation and progression. It has recently been shown that the dysregulation of the Hippo signaling pathway, through diverse routes activated by metabolic cues, can lead to cancer with a poor prognosis. In addition, unique crosstalk between metabolic pathways and Hippo signaling pathways can inhibit the effect of anticancer drugs and promote drug resistance. In this review, we describe an integrated perspective of the relationship between the Hippo signaling pathway and metabolic signals in the context of cancer. We also characterize the mechanisms involved in changes in metabolism that are linked to the Hippo signaling pathway in the cancer microenvironment and propose several novel targets for anticancer drug treatment. 相似文献
