Project description:Background: More than 90 tyrosine kinases have been implicated in the pathogenesis of malignant transformation and tumor angiogenesis. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have emerged as effective therapies in treating cancer by exploiting this kinase dependency. The TKI erlotinib targets the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), whereas sunitinib targets primarily vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR).TKIs that impact the function of non-malignant cells and have on- and off-target toxicities, including cardiotoxicities. Cardiotoxicity is very rare in patients treated with erlotinib, but considerably more common after sunitinib treatment. We hypothesized that the deleterious effects of TKIs on the heart were related to their impact on cardiac metabolism. Methods: Female FVB/N mice (10/group) were treated with therapeutic doses of sunitinib (40 mg/kg), erlotinib (50 mg/kg), or vehicle daily for two weeks. Echocardiographic assessment of the heart in vivo was performed at baseline and on Day 14. Heart, skeletal muscle, liver and serum were flash frozen and prepped for non-targeted GC-MS metabolomics analysis. Results: Compared to vehicle-treated controls, sunitinib-treated mice had significant decreases in systolic function, whereas erlotinib-treated mice did not. Non-targeted metabolomics analysis of heart identified significant decreases in docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), arachidonic acid (AA)/ eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), O-phosphocolamine, and 6-hydroxynicotinic acid after sunitinib treatment. DHA was significantly decreased in skeletal muscle (quadriceps femoris), while elevated cholesterol was identified in liver and elevated ethanolamine identified in serum. In contrast, erlotinib affected only one metabolite (spermidine significantly increased). Conclusions: Mice treated with sunitinib exhibited systolic dysfunction within two weeks, with significantly lower heart and skeletal muscle levels of long chain omega-3 fatty acids docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), arachidonic acid (AA)/eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and increased serum O-phosphocholine phospholipid. This is the first link between sunitinib-induced cardiotoxicity and depletion of the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and inflammatory mediators DHA and AA/EPA in the heart. These compounds have important roles in maintaining mitochondrial function, and their loss may contribute to cardiac dysfunction.

Project description:Background and purposeThe human kinome consists of roughly 500 kinases, including 150 that have been proposed as therapeutic targets. Protein kinases regulate an array of signalling pathways that control metabolism, cell cycle progression, cell death, differentiation and survival. It is not surprising, then, that new kinase inhibitors developed to treat cancer, including sorafenib, also exhibit cardiotoxicity. We hypothesized that sorafenib cardiotoxicity is related to its deleterious effects on specific cardiac metabolic pathways given the critical roles of protein kinases in cardiac metabolism.Experimental approachFVB/N mice (10 per group) were challenged with sorafenib or vehicle control daily for 2 weeks. Echocardiographic assessment of the heart identified systolic dysfunction consistent with cardiotoxicity in sorafenib-treated mice compared to vehicle-treated controls. Heart, skeletal muscle, liver and plasma were flash frozen and prepped for non-targeted GC-MS metabolomics analysis.Key resultsCompared to vehicle-treated controls, sorafenib-treated hearts exhibited significant alterations in 11 metabolites, including markedly altered taurine/hypotaurine metabolism (25-fold enrichment), identified by pathway enrichment analysis.Conclusions and implicationsThese studies identified alterations in taurine/hypotaurine metabolism in the hearts and skeletal muscles of mice treated with sorafenib. Interventions that rescue or prevent these sorafenib-induced changes, such as taurine supplementation, may be helpful in attenuating sorafenib-induced cardiac injury.

Project description:BackgroundSeveral tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) can decrease docetaxel clearance in patients by an unknown mechanism. We hypothesised that these interactions are mediated by the hepatic uptake transporter OATP1B1.MethodsThe influence of 16 approved TKIs on transport was studied in vitro using HEK293 cells expressing OATP1B1 or its mouse equivalent Oatp1b2. Pharmacokinetic studies were performed with Oatp1b2-knockout and OATP1B1-transgenic mice.ResultsAll docetaxel-interacting TKIs, including sorafenib, were identified as potent inhibitors of OATP1B1 in vitro. Although Oatp1b2 deficiency in vivo was associated with increased docetaxel exposure, single- or multiple-dose sorafenib did not influence docetaxel pharmacokinetics.ConclusionThese findings highlight the importance of identifying proper preclinical models for verifying and predicting TKI-chemotherapy interactions involving transporters.

Project description:BackgroundA growing field of evidence suggests the involvement of oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) in cell transformation. Deregulated activity of RTKs in tumors can determine disease progression and therapeutic responses in several types of cancer, including neuroblastoma (NB). Therefore, RTKs targeting is a worthwhile challenge for the oncologists. Nevertheless, acquired resistance to RTK inhibitors (RTKi) remains a serious problem. Autophagy activation is among the possible obstacles for good efficacy of the therapy with RTKi.MethodsUnder different treatment conditions we measured autophagic flux using immunoblot and immunofluorescence assays. Death induction was validated by trypan blue exclusion assay and FACS analysis (calcein-AM/propidium iodide). The NB cell lines SH-SY5Y and Kelly were used for the in vitro study.ResultsIn order to define whether autophagy might be a limiting factor for the efficacy of RTKi in NB cells, we firstly checked its activation following the treatment with several RTKi. Next, we investigated the possibility to increase their therapeutic efficiency by combining RTKi with autophagy blocking agents in vitro. We exploited the effectiveness of three RTKi either alone or in combination with autophagy inhibitors (Chloroquine-CQ and Spautin-1). We demonstrated that autophagy induction was drug-dependent, and that its inhibition increased the anti-tumor activity of a single RTKi unevenly. We observed that the combined use of blocking agents which impair late autophagy events, such as CQ, and RTKi can be more effective with respect to the use of RTKi alone.ConclusionsIn the present report, we assessed the conditions under which autophagy is activated during the use of different RTKi currently in the pre-clinical evaluation for NB. We summarized the achievements of combined RTK/autophagy inhibitors treatment as a promising approach to enhance the efficacy of RTKi in impairing tumor cells viability.

Project description:Recent progress in nanomedicine and targeted therapy brings new breeze into the field of therapeutic applications of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). These drugs are known for many side effects due to non-targeted mechanism of action that negatively impact quality of patients' lives or that are responsible for failure of the drugs in clinical trials. Some nanocarrier properties provide improvement of drug efficacy, reduce the incidence of adverse events, enhance drug bioavailability, helps to overcome the blood-brain barrier, increase drug stability or allow for specific delivery of TKIs to the diseased cells. Moreover, nanotechnology can bring new perspectives into combination therapy, which can be highly efficient in connection with TKIs. Lastly, nanotechnology in combination with TKIs can be utilized in the field of theranostics, i.e. for simultaneous therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. The review provides a comprehensive overview of advantages and future prospects of conjunction of nanotransporters with TKIs as a highly promising approach to anticancer therapy.

Project description:The use of interferon-a (INF) in chronic myeloid leukemia, when it started in the 80s, was considered as a breakthrough in the therapy of this disease; INF administered alone or in combination with aracytin was the standard choice for treatment for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) patients unfit for bone marrow transplantation. With the appearance of the first Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) (imatinib) and based on the results of the pivotal IRIS trial, imatinib monotherapy was the new treatment of choice for CML, according to the ELN recommendations. The possibility of combining INF with imatinib, for obtaining better therapeutic responses in CML patients has been already tested and reported. The current challenge is the combined use of second generation TKIs with pegylated -IFN, in order to minimize failures to therapy and increase the number of CML patients with deep molecular responses, who may be able to discontinue lifelong treatment.

Project description:The Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases has drawn growing attention due to their role in regulating diverse biological phenomena. However, pharmacological interrogation of Eph kinase function has been hampered by a lack of potent and selective Eph kinase inhibitors. Here we report the discovery of compounds 6 and 9 using a rationally designed kinase-directed library which potently inhibit Eph receptor tyrosine kinases, particularly EphB2 with cellular EC(50)s of 40nM. Crystallographic data of EphA3 and EphA7 in complex with the inhibitors show that they bind to the 'DFG-out' inactive kinase conformation and provide valuable information for structure-based design of second generation inhibitors.
