2-Aminoethoxydiphenylborane sensitizes anti-tumor effect of bortezomib via suppression of calcium-mediated autophagy.

ABSTRACT: Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for most lung cancer cases. Therapeutic interventions integrating the use of different agents that focus on different targets are needed to overcome this set of diseases. The proteasome system has been demonstrated clinically as a potent therapeutic target for haematological cancers. However, promising preclinical data in solid tumors are yet to be confirmed in clinics. Herein, the combinational use of Bortezomib (BZM) and 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborane (2-APB) toward NSCLC cells was studied. We confirmed that BZM-triggered cytoprotective autophagy that may counteract with the cytotoxic effects of the drug per se. 2-APB was selected from screening of a commercial natural compounds library, which potentiated BZM-induced cytotoxicity. Such an enhancement effect was associated with 2-APB-mediated autophagy inhibition. In addition, we revealed that 2-APB suppressed calcium-induced autophagy in H1975 and A549 NSCLC cells. Interestingly, BZM [0.3?mg/kg/3 days] combined with 2-APB [2?mg/kg/day] significantly inhibited both primary (around 47% tumor growth) and metastatic Lewis lung carcinoma after a 20-day treatment. Our results suggested that BZM and 2-APB combination therapy can potentially be developed as a novel formulation for lung cancer treatment.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are known to contribute to many metabolic diseases, including diabetes. In this study, we investigated the role of miR199a-5p in the regulation of hepatic insulin sensitivity. Ad-anti-miR199a-5p adenoviruses were injected into male C57BL/6J WT mice fed a high-fat diet to inhibit miR199a-5p expression before the glucose levels and insulin resistance were assessed. Similarly, Ad-miR199a-5p adenoviruses were injected into male C57BL/6J WT mice to cause the overexpression of miR199a-5p. To investigate the roles of autophagy-related protein 14 (ATG14) and miR199a-5p in the regulation of insulin sensitivity, we injected Ad-miR199a-5p with or without Ad-ATG14 viruses into WT C57BL/6J mice before performing functional assays. Moreover, we infected HepG2 cells or primary hepatocytes with Ad-anti-miR199a-5p or Ad-miR199a-5p viruses to determine the effect of miR199a-5p on insulin resistance in vitro. Finally, we explored the clinical relevance of miR199a-5p by examining the expression level of miR199a-5p in liver samples derived from diabetes patients. We first demonstrated that knocking down miR199a-5p led to decreased glucose tolerance and clearance in vivo, whereas the overexpression of miR199a-5p had the opposite effect. We further identified ATG14 as the target of miR199a-5p, and ATG14 partially rescued miR199a-5p-potentiated glucose and insulin tolerance. In addition, transmission electron microscopy data and western blot data regarding ATG14, LC3 and BECLIN1 illustrated that miR199a-5p regulates autophagy via ATG14. Knocking down miR199a-5p in primary hepatocytes and HepG2 cells suppressed the insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of insulin receptor β, glycogen synthase kinase 3β and protein kinase B, whereas the overexpression of miR199a-5p further potentiated their phosphorylation. Finally, we detected upregulated miR199a-5p levels, which were correlated with reduced ATG14 mRNA levels and downregulated autophagy in liver samples obtained from diabetes patients. Our study uncovered a novel biological role of miR199a-5p in the regulation of hepatic insulin sensitivity via ATG14-mediated autophagy.
