Project description:Retinoid X receptor (RXR) is a crucial and distinctive member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, which is involved in regulating various physiological processes. RXR agonists have the potential to treat Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, we identified a novel RXR agonist superior to existing drugs after extensively exploring the biological properties of 6-hydroxy-3’-propyl-[1,1’-biphenyl]-3-propanoic acid (6OHA), a compound synthesized in our laboratory based on the structure of magnaldehyde B. 6OHA exhibited higher selectivity for RXRα over retinoic acid receptor (RARα) and lower transcriptional activity for RXRg compared to the existing RXR agonist bexarotene (Bex). RNA-sequencing analysis, Gene Ontology, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses suggest that 6OHA and Bex exhibit similar gene expression patterns but have distinct transcriptional effects; 6OHA was more closely associated with chemotaxis and response to stimuli compared to Bex. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed that 6OHA exhibited faster intestinal absorption, reached higher concentrations in the brain and liver shortly after oral dministration, and was cleared from the body more rapidly than Bex, subsequently inducing target gene transcription in the brain. Bex increased serum triglyceride and decreased serum thyrotropin and free thyroxine levels, whereas 6OHA did not induce these adverse effects, attributable to the distinct properties of 6OHA as an RXR agonist compared to Bex. Our results highlight 6OHA as a promising RXR agonist for treating AD without any adverse effects.

Project description:Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive malignant brain tumor. Differentiation can attenuate or block tumor growth; thus, phenotypic screenings were performed to search for drugs inducing differentiational morphological changes in mesenchymal recurrent GBM, a temozolomide (TMZ)-resistant brain cancer. Bexarotene, a selective retinoid X receptor agonist, showed strong inhibition of neurospheroidal colony formation and migration of cultured GBM stem cells. Bexarotene decreased nestin expression and significantly increased GFAP expression. Gene expression changes by bexarotene and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), a well-known differentiation inducer, were compared. Both drugs largely altered the gene expression pattern into a tumor-ameliorating direction. These drugs increased the gene expression levels of Krüppel-like factor 9 (KLF9), regulator of G-protein signaling 4 (RGS4), growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4), and lowered the level of chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4). Both drugs also induced a potential oncogene, transglutaminase 2 (TG2), but the fold-change induced by bexarotene was considerably lesser than that by ATRA. Consistently, the TG2 activity in GBM was elevated several folds by ATRA. Because TG2 upregulation is correlated with tumor transformation and resistance, it is important to control its overexpression. Bexarotene does not upregulate TG2 as much as ATRA, and bexarotene showed in vivo tumoricidal effects in a GBM xenograft mouse model. Thus, these findings strongly suggest that bexarotene is more beneficial than ATRA and should be considered as a differentiation therapeutic agent for mesenchymal GBM.

Project description:The efficiency of central nervous system (CNS) remyelination declines with age. This is in part due to an age-associated decline in the phagocytic removal of myelin debris, which contains inhibitors of oligodendrocyte progenitor cell differentiation. In this study we show that expression of genes involved in the retinoid X receptor (RXR) pathway are decreased with aging in myelin-phagocytosing cells. Loss of RXR function in young macrophages mimics aging by delaying remyelination after experimentally-induced demyelination, while RXR agonists partially restore myelin debris phagocytosis in aged macrophages. The FDA-approved RXR agonist bexarotene, when used in concentrations achievable in human subjects, caused a reversion of the gene expression profile in aging human monocytes to a more youthful profile. These results reveal the RXR pathway as a positive regulator of myelin debris clearance and a key player in the age-related decline in remyelination that may be targeted by available or newly-developed therapeutics. 24 Human CD14+ monocyte-sorted PBMC samples representing 4 Healthy Volunteers (HV) and 4 Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients under 3 different treatment conditions. Condition 1 = (-) Phagocystosis (-) Bexarotene. Condition 2 = (+) Phagocystosis (-) Bexarotene. Condition 3 = (+) Phagocystosis (+) Bexarotene.

Project description:Acquired drug resistance represents a major challenge in chemo-therapy treatment for various types of cancers. We have found that the retinoid X receptor–selective agonist bexarotene (LGD1069, Targretin) was efficacious in treating chemo-resistant cancer cells. The goal of this microarray study was to understand the mechanism of bexarotene’s role in overcoming acquired drug resistance using human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 as a model system and paclitaxel as model compound. After MDA-MB-231 cells were repeatedly treated with paclitaxel for 8 cycles with each cycle including a 3-day treatment with 30 nM paclitaxel and followed by a 7-day exposure to control medium, MDA cells resistant to paclitaxel were developed and their growth was no longer inhibited by paclitaxel treatment. Those MDA cells with acquired drug resistance, when treated with paclitaxel and bexarotene in combination, could regain their sensitivity and their growth were again inhibited. Therefore, RNA samples from parental MDA-MB-231 cells, paclitaxel-resistant MDA cells treated with vehicle, paclitaxel alone or in combination with bexarotene, were used for perform global gene expression profiling with Affymetrix HG-U133A gene chips.

Project description:While skeletal myogenesis is tightly coordinated by myogenic regulatory factors including MyoD and myogenin, chromatin modifications have emerged as vital mechanisms of myogenic regulation. We have previously established that bexarotene, a clinically approved agonist of retinoid X receptor, promotes the specification and differentiation of skeletal muscle lineage. Here, we examine a genome-wide impact of rexinoids on myogenic differentiation through integral RNA-seq and ChIP-seq analyses. We found that bexarotene promotes myoblast differentiation through the coordination of exit from the cell cycle and the activation of muscle-related genes. We uncovered a new mechanism of rexinoid action which is mediated by the nuclear receptor and largely reconciled through a direct regulation of MyoD gene expression. In addition, we determined a rexinoid-responsive residue-specific histone acetylation at a distinct chromatin state associated to MyoD and myogenin. Thus, we provide novel molecular insights into the interplay between retinoid X receptor signaling and chromatin states pertinent to myogenic programs in early myoblast differentiation.

Keywords: Drug Treatment MDA-MB-231 cells were exposed to regimens on a 10-day cycle: a 3-day treatment with 30 nM paclitaxel and followed by a 7-day exposure to control medium. Paclitaxel resistant MDA-MB-231 cells (MDA-PR) were established within 8 cycles of such treatment (80 days). These MDA-PR cells were then treated with vehicle control, paclitaxel along, or the combination of 30 nM paclitaxel ( 3 days on and 7 days off) and 1 µM Targretin (10 days on) in a new 10-day cycle for 3 months. Thus, there are four treatment groups, parent MDA cells, MDA-PR, MDA-PR treated with paclitaxel, MDA-PR treated with paclitaxel and bexarotene, and each group had four biological replicates.

Project description:Resistance of Calu3 NSCLC cells to the cytotoxic nucleoside analog gemcitabine (2',2'-difluorodeoxycytidine) can be prevented as well as reversed by the rexinoid X receptor selective agonist bexarotene. This study was designed to investigate the changes in gene expression associated with gemcitabine resistance and its reversal by bexarotene. In addition to the parental Calu3 cells and the 10 cycles of treatment of the gemcitabine resistant Calu3 cells with vehicle or bexarotene, analogous treatment paradigms with gemcitabine alone as well as the combination of both compounds have been included as controls. (However, it has to be noted that in the combination treatment, cells that were re-sensitized by bexarotene have largely been removed from the culture before harvest due to the cytotoxic activity of gemcitabine.)

Project description:Bexarotene, a retinoid X receptor (RXR) agonist, is used to treat cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, and drug repositioning research has also been reported, despite warnings of teratogenicity. However, fetal transfer of bexarotene and its effect on rat fetal bone formation have not been examined. In this study, we conducted a detailed teratogenicity and fetal transferability assessment of bexarotene in rats. Repeated administration of bexarotene during pregnancy caused marked fetal atrophy and bone dysplasia. Although fetal transfer was not detectable by dynamic imaging of [11C]bexarotene by means of positron emission tomography, transfer to the fetus was confirmed by using a gamma counter. Similar levels were found in mother and fetus. In addition, we found that bexarotene was accumulated in the placenta. These findings will be useful for the toxicity assessment of bexarotene as well as for drug discovery research targeting RXR agonists, which are expected to have therapeutic effects in various diseases.
