Bcl-2-dependent synthetic lethal interaction of the IDF-11774 with the V0 subunit C of vacuolar ATPase (ATP6V0C) in colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The IDF-11774, a novel clinical candidate for cancer therapy, targets HSP70 and inhibits mitochondrial respiration, resulting in the activation of AMPK and reduction in HIF-1α accumulation.

Methods

To identify genes that have synthetic lethality to IDF-11774, RNA interference screening was conducted, using pooled lentiviruses expressing a short hairpin RNA library.

Results

We identified ATP6V0C, encoding the V0 subunit C of lysosomal V-ATPase, knockdown of which induced a synergistic growth-inhibitory effect in HCT116 cells in the presence of IDF-11774. The synthetic lethality of IDF-11774 with ATP6V0C possibly correlates with IDF-11774-mediated autolysosome formation. Notably, the synergistic effect of IDF-11774 and the ATP6V0C inhibitor, bafilomycin A1, d
