Expression data from metadherin (MTDH) knockdown in the Ishikawa H endometrial cancer cell line

ABSTRACT: Understanding the molecular underpinnings of chemoresistance is vital to design therapies to restore chemosensitivity. In particular, metadherin (MTDH) has been demonstrated to have a critical role in chemoresistance. Over-expression of MTDH has recently been implicated in poor clinical outcome in breast cancer, neroblastoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and prostate cancer. In this present study, we focused on the therapeutic benefit of MTDH depletion to restore sensitivity to cell death mediated by a combinatorial therapy of tumor necrosis factor-alpha-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), which promotes death of cancerous cells of the human reproductive tract, and histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, which have been shown to increase sensitivity of cancer cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. Our data indicate that depletion of MTDH in endometrial cancer cells results in sensitization of cells that were previously resistant to cell death mediated by combinatorial treatment with TRAIL and HDAC inhibitor LBH589. MTDH was found to be involved in G2/M checkpoint regulation in response to LBH589 alone or LBH589 in combination with TRAIL, suggesting that MTDH functions at the cell cycle checkpoint to accomplish resistance.Using microarray technology, we identified 57 downstream target genes of MTDH, including Calbindin 1 and Galectin 1, which may contribute to MTDH-mediated resistance to combinatorial TRAIL and HDAC inhibitor targeted therapy. Inhibition of PDK1,AKT phosphorylation and increase Bim expression and XIAP degradation may result in sensitivity to cell death induction in MTDH depleted Hec50co cells by TRAIL and LBH 589 combination treatment. These findings indicate that depletion of MTDH is a potentially novel avenue for effective cancer therapy. The microarray was performed on three biological triplicates as well as three experimental triplicates of stable knockdown and control cells. MTDH was knocked down using a shRNA.

Project description:Combining direct anti-tumor effects with targeting of tumor microenvironment is an attractive strategy that may lead to more effective therapies for advanced melanoma. Here, we tested whether association of TRAIL with co-targeting of MEK and PI3K/mTOR, or with MEK blockade, could have synergistic anti-melanoma activity mediated not only by induction of tumor cell death, but also by effects on the tumor microenvironment. Drug interaction analysis by the Chou-Talalay approach in a panel of 21 melanoma cell lines indicated that strong synergism could be achieved by association of the MEK1/2 inhibitor AZD6244, the PI3K/mTOR inhibitor NPV-BEZ235 and TRAIL, as well as by the AZD6244/TRAIL combination. Synergism was observed on most tumors including TRAIL- or inhibitor-resistant melanomas, irrespective of the BRAF, NRAS, p53 and PTEN status, and was explained by enhanced induction of caspase-dependent melanoma apoptosis. The AZD/BEZ/TRAIL and AZD/TRAIL combinatorial treatments induced strong modulation of key apoptosis regulators along the extrinsic and intrinsic cell death pathways, including c-FLIP down-regulation, caspase-8 cleavage, BIMs and BAXa upregulation, clusterin and Mcl-1 inhibition, enhanced mitochondrial depolarization, suppression of inhibitors of apoptosis c-IAP1, c-IAP2, XIAP and Apollon, and caspase 3/7 activation. In an in vivo model, the AZD6244/TRAIL combinatorial treatment induced highly significant growth inhibition of a TRAIL-resistant tumor associated not only with melanoma cell death, but even with suppression of pro-angiogenic molecules HIF1a, VEGFa, IL-8 and TGFb1, and with inhibition of tumor angiogenesis. These results provide a proof of principle supporting the rationale for combinatorial treatments with synergistic anti-melanoma activity based on direct and indirect anti-tumor effects. The human melanoma cell line Me13 was established in our laboratory from a surgical specimen. Cells were routinely maintained in RPMI medium 1640 (Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) supplemented with 10% FBS (Lonza) and 2 mM glutamine (Lonza). Cells were maintained at 37°C in a water-saturated atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air. 3x10^6 cells were seeded in 75 cm2 flasks; after 24 hours, cells were left untreated or treated with Selumetinib (Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX) at 0.1 micromol/L, NVP-BEZ-235 (Selleck Chemicals, Houston, TX) at 0.1 micromol/L and sTRAIL (AdipoGen) at 25ng/ml as single drugs or in combination for 8 hours. Each treatment or combination was performed in triplicate. At the end of treatment, cells were collected and RNA extracted.
