Novel autophagy inhibitor Lys05 enhances impact of ionizing radiation on human lung cancer cells H1299

ABSTRACT: Autophagy inhibition through small-molecule inhibitors is one of the approaches to increasing the efficiency of radiotherapy of oncological patients. A new inhibitor, Lys05, with potential to accumulate within lysosomes and to block autophagy has been discovered recently. Several studies have described its chemosensitizing effects, but nothing is known about its impact in the context of ionizing radiation (IR). To investigate the mechanisms underlying its role in radiosensitization we employed radioresistant human non-small cell lung carcinoma cells (H1299, p53-negative) in combination with multiple approaches (cell biology techniques to reveal the phenotypes, and quantitative phosphoproteomics to comprehensively describe Lys05-induced changes in irradiated cells). In the presented study, we report for the first time that Lys05 could be utilized in combination with IR as a promising future strategy in eradication of lung cancer cells.

Project description:Background: We previously demonstrated that B16F1 melanoma tumors growing in syngeneic germline-deleted TNFR1,2 -/- mice were more sensitive to ionizing radiation (IR) compared to tumors growing in C57BL/6 wild-type mice; however, the mechanisms linked to this difference in radiosensitivity are not fully understood. Methodology/ Principal Findings: We used DNA microarrays to identify alterations in the expression of functional gene clusters associated with the radiosensitization of B16F1 tumors growing in TNFR1,2 -/- mice. At the basal level, disruption of host stromal TNFα signaling resulted in the over-expression of tumor genes involved in extracellular matrix remodeling and angiogenesis. Phenotypically, these tumors exhibited a reduced vascular density, which induced the expression of oxidative stress signaling pathways and increased levels of tissue hypoxia and necrosis. These alterations were paralleled by the suppression of genes involved in chromosomal stability and key effectors of the ATM-dependent/ non-homologous end-joining pathways including phosphorylated-ATM, BRCA1, and RAD51, which resulted in greater DNA double-strand breaks and caspase 3 activation following IR treatment. Conclusions/ Significance: Taken together, these results demonstrate that disruption of TNFα signaling in the host stroma mediates transcriptional and phenotypic changes in tumors which may alter tumor radiosensitivity. These results suggest a critical role for TNFα in the maintenance of tumor-associated vasculature and radioresistance. They also indicate that TNFα signaling blockade in stromal cells may represent a strategy for tumor radiosensitization. To investigate the genes associated with the radiosensitization of B16F1 melanoma tumors in the context of disrupted stromal TNFα signaling, we performed expression profiling of B16F1 tumors grown in syngeneic TNFR 1, 2 -/- and wild-type C57BL/6 mice. Tumors were lysed to collect total RNA, pooled by treatment group according to total RNA level, and analyzed in duplicates with Affymetrix GeneChip® Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Arrays.

Project description:Insulin-like growth factor receptor-1 (IGF-1R) inhibition could be a relevant therapeutic approach in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) given the importance of an IGF-1R autocrine loop and its role in DNA damage repair processes. We assessed IGF-1R and pAkt protein expression in 83 SCLC human specimens. The efficacy of R1507 (a monoclonal antibody directed against IGF-1R) alone or combined with cisplatin or ionizing radiation (IR) was evaluated in H69, H146 and H526 cells in vitro and in vivo. Innovative genomic and functional approaches were conducted to analyze the molecular behavior under the different treatment conditions. A total of 53% and 37% of human specimens expressed IGF-1R and pAkt, respectively. R1507 demonstrated single agent activity in H146 and H526 cells but not in H69 cells. R1507 exhibited synergistic effects with both Cisplatin and IR in vitro. The triple combination R1507-Cisplatin-IR led to a dramatic delay in tumor growth compared to Cisplatin-IR in H526 cells. Analyzing the apparent absence of antitumoral effect of R1507 alone in vivo, we observed a transient reduction of IGF-1R staining intensity in vivo, concomitant to the activation of multiple cell surface receptors and intracellular proteins involved in proliferation, angiogenesis and survival. Finally, we identified that the nucleotide excision repair pathway (NER) was mediated after exposure to R1507-CDDP and R1507-IR in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, adding R1507 to the current standard Cisplatin-IR doublet reveals remarkable chemo- and radiosensitizing effects in selected SCLC models and warrants to be investigated in the clinical setting. We used microarrays to investigate the effect of IGF-1R targetting on the global gene expression. Gene expression data from H526 xenografts under various treatment and time conditions Total mRNA from 33 NCI-H526 SCLC (small-cell lung cancer) xenografts was hybridized to Affymetrix HGU133 Plus 2.0 expression arrays. Log2 gene expression values were calculated using RMA. (A) To identify the molecular mechanisms involved in the response to R1507 alone along the treatment time, we performed global gene expression profiling in H526 xenografts at the following time points: baseline (vehicle), R1507 day 1 and R1507 day 7. (B) To identify the molecular mechanisms involved in the response to CDDP- and IR-R1507 combinations, we performed global gene expression profiling on mice bearing H526 xenografts treated with the following treatment conditions: vehicle, R1507 CDDP, IR, CDDP-R1507 and IR-R1507.
