Inhibitory Effect of PIK-24 on Respiratory Syncytial Virus Entry by Blocking Phosphatidylinositol-3 Kinase Signaling.

ABSTRACT: Phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling modulates many cellular processes, including cell survival, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Currently, it is known that the establishment of respiratory syncytial virus infection requires phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling. However, the regulatory pattern of phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling or its corresponding molecular mechanism during respiratory syncytial virus entry remains unclear. Here, the involvement of phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling in respiratory syncytial virus entry was studied. PIK-24, a novel compound designed with phosphoinositide-3 kinase as a target, had potent anti-respiratory syncytial virus activity both in vitro and in vivo PIK-24 significantly reduced viral entry into the host cell through blocking the late stage of the fusion process. In a mouse model, PIK-24 effectively reduced the viral load and alleviated inflammation in lung tissue. Subsequent studies on the antiviral mechanism of PIK-24 revealed that viral entry was accompanied by phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling activation, downstream RhoA and cofilin upregulation, and actin cytoskeleton rearrangement. PIK-24 treatment significantly reversed all these effects. The disruption of actin cytoskeleton dynamics or the modulation of phosphoinositide-3 kinase activity by knockdown also affected viral entry efficacy. Altogether, it is reasonable to conclude that the antiviral activity of PIK-24 depends on the phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling and that the use of phosphoinositide-3 kinase signaling to regulate actin cytoskeleton rearrangement plays a key role in respiratory syncytial virus entry.

Project description:BackgroundRespiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infects the lung epithelium where it stimulates the production of numerous host cytokines that are associated with disease burden and acute lung injury. Characterizing the host cytokine response to RSV infection, the regulation of host cytokines and the impact of neutralizing an RSV-inducible cytokine during infection were undertaken in this study.MethodsA549, primary human small airway epithelial (SAE) cells and wild-type, TIR-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-β (Trif) and mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (Mavs) knockout (KO) mice were infected with RSV and cytokine responses were investigated by ELISA, multiplex analysis and qPCR. Neutralizing anti-leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) IgG or control IgG was administered to a group of wild-type animals prior to RSV infection.Results and discussionRSV-infected A549 and SAE cells release a network of cytokines, including newly identified RSV-inducible cytokines LIF, migration inhibitory factor (MIF), stem cell factor (SCF), CCL27, CXCL12 and stem cell growth factor beta (SCGF-β). These RSV-inducible cytokines were also observed in the airways of mice during an infection. To identify the regulation of RSV inducible cytokines, Mavs and Trif deficient animals were infected with RSV. In vivo induction of airway IL-1β, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-12(p40), IFN-γ, CCL2, CCL5, CCL3, CXCL1, IP-10/CXCL10, IL-22, MIG/CXCL9 and MIF were dependent on Mavs expression in mice. Loss of Trif expression in mice altered the RSV induction of IL-1β, IL-5, CXCL12, MIF, LIF, CXCL12 and IFN-γ. Silencing of retinoic acid-inducible gene-1 (RIG-I) expression in A549 cells had a greater impact on RSV-inducible cytokines than melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) and laboratory of genetics and physiology 2 (LGP2), and Trif expression. To evaluate the role of LIF in the airways during RSV infection, animals were treated with neutralizing anti-LIF IgG, which enhanced RSV pathology observed with increased airspace protein content, apoptosis and airway hyperresponsiveness compared to control IgG treatment.ConclusionsRSV infection in the epithelium induces a network of immune factors to counter infection, primarily in a RIG-I dependent manner. Expression of LIF protects the lung from lung injury and enhanced pathology during RSV infection.

Project description:Therapeutic resistance is the major challenge in clinic for patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an aggressive subtype of B-cell lymphoma. In addition to the FDA-approved Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, multiple clinical trials have demonstrated clinical benefits in targeting BCL-2 by venetoclax and reported to greatly improve clinical outcome for refractory/relapsed patients with MCL alone or in combination with BTK inhibitors. However, resistance to venetoclax is no exception and marks as a new clinic challenge. To decode the underlying mechanisms driving venetoclax resistance, we established two MCL cell lines, Mino-Re and Rec1-Re, with acquired resistance to venetoclax from sensitive Mino and Rec-1. Using reverse phase protein assay (RPPA), an agnostic proteomic approach, we identified targetable signaling pathways that are associated with acquired venetoclax resistance in Mino-Re and Rec1-Re cells. A panel of pro-survival signals was identified to correlate well with venetoclax-resistance, including increased expression of MCL-1, BCL-xL and AKT phosphorylation, and decreased expression of BIM, BAX and PTEN. Based on a high throughput drug screening of over 320 FDA-approved/investigational drugs in the paired venetoclax-sensitive and -resistant cell lines Mino-Re and Rec1-Re, we identified the top candidates that are capable to overcome acquired venetoclax resistance in these cells. The best candidate is PIK-75, a dual inhibitor targeting both PI3K and CDK9. Its action to overcome venetoclax resistance was further confirmed in additional cell lines with primary venetoclax resistance (n=4) and primary patient samples (n=21). Mechanistically, PIK75 treatment potently diminished the elevated MCL-1 expression and AKT activation in cells with acquired or primary venetoclax resistance and resulted in potent anti-MCL activity to overcome these resistances. In addition, PIK75 is also potent in overcoming tumor microenvironment (TME)-associated venetoclax resistance. Furthermore, PIK-75 treatment is efficacious in overcoming primary and acquired venetoclax resistance in xenograft models and inhibited tumor cell dissemination to spleen in mice. Altogether, our data demonstrated that PIK-75 is highly potent in overcoming primary, acquired, or stromal cells-induced venetoclax resistances in MCL cells and revealed a new tumor vulnerability that can be exploited clinically in difficult to treat MCL cases, especially those with venetoclax resistance.
