Effects of Sepantronium Bromide (YM-155) on the Whole Transcriptome of MDA-MB-231 Cells: Highlight on Impaired ATR/ATM Fanconi Anemia DNA Damage Response.

ABSTRACT: Sepantronium bromide (YM-155) is believed to elicit apoptosis and mitotic arrest in tumor cells by reducing (BIRC5, survivin) mRNA. In this study, we monitored changes in survivin mRNA and protein after treating MDA-MB-231 cells with YM-155 concurrent with evaluation of whole transcriptomic (WT) mRNA and long intergenic non-coding RNA at 2 time points: 8 h sub-lethal (83 ng/mL) and 20 h at the LC₅₀ (14.6 ng/mL). The data show a tight association between cell death and the precipitating loss of survivin protein and mRNA (-2.67 fold-change (FC), p<0.001) at 20 h, questioning if the decline in survivin is attributed to cell death or drug impact. The meager loss of survivin mRNA was overshadowed by enormous differential change to the WT in both magnitude and significance for over 20
