Celecoxib Prevents Doxorubicin-Induced Multidrug Resistance in Canine and Mouse Lymphoma Cell Lines.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Treatment of malignancies is still a major challenge in human and canine cancer, mostly due to the emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR). One of the main contributors of MDR is the overexpression P-glycoprotein (Pgp), which recognizes and extrudes various chemotherapeutics from cancer cells. METHODS:To study mechanisms underlying the development of drug resistance, we established an in vitro treatment protocol to rapidly induce Pgp-mediated MDR in cancer cells. Based on a clinical observation showing that a 33-day-long, unplanned drug holiday can reverse the MDR phenotype of a canine diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patient, our aim was to use the established assay to prevent the emergence of drug resistance in the early stages of treatment. RESULTS:We showed that an in vitro drug holiday results in the decrease of Pgp expression in MDR cell lines. Surprisingly, celecoxib, a known COX-2 inhibitor, prevented the emergence of drug-induced MDR in murine and canine lymphoma cell lines. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings suggest that celecoxib could significantly improve the efficiency of chemotherapy by preventing the development of MDR in B-cell lymphoma.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Empagliflozin showed efficacy in controlling glycaemia, leading to reductions in HbA1c levels, weight loss and blood pressure, compared to standard treatment. Moreover, the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial demonstrated a 14% reduction of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), a 38% reduction in cardiovascular (CV) death and a 35% reduction in the hospitalization rate for heart failure (HF). These beneficial effect on HF were apparently independent from glucose control. However, no mechanistic in vivo studies are available to explain these results, yet. We aimed to determine the effect of empagliflozin on left ventricular (LV) function in a mouse model of doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy (DOX-HF). METHODS:Male C57Bl/6 mice were randomly assigned to the following groups: controls (CTRL, n?=?7), doxorubicin (DOX, n?=?14), DOX plus empagliflozin (DOX?+?EMPA, n?=?14), or DOX plus furosemide (DOX?+?FURO group, n?=?7). DOX was injected intraperitoneally. LV function was evaluated at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment using high-resolution echocardiography with 2D speckle tracking (Vevo 2100). Histological assessment was obtained using Haematoxylin and Eosin and Masson's Goldner staining. RESULTS:A significant decrease in both systolic and diastolic LV function was observed after 6 weeks of treatment with doxorubicin. EF dropped by 32% (p?=?0.002), while the LS was reduced by 42% (p?<?0.001) and the CS by 50% (p?<?0.001). However, LV function was significantly better in the DOX?+?EMPA group, both in terms of EF (61.30?±?11% vs. 49.24?±?8%, p?=?0.007), LS (- 17.52?±?3% vs. - 13.93?±?5%, p?=?0.04) and CS (- 25.75?±?6% vs. - 15.91?±?6%, p?<?0.001). Those results were not duplicated in the DOX?+?FURO group. Hearts from the DOX?+?EMPA group showed a 50% lower degree of myocardial fibrosis, compared to DOX mice (p?=?0.03). No significant differences were found between the DOX?+?FURO and the DOX group (p?=?0.103). CONCLUSION:Empagliflozin attenuates the cardiotoxic effects exerted by doxorubicin on LV function and remodelling in nondiabetic mice, independently of glycaemic control. These findings support the design of clinical studies to assess their relevance in a clinical setting.

Project description:BackgroundCyclic nucleotides play critical roles in cardiovascular biology and disease. PDE10A (phosphodiesterase 10A) is able to hydrolyze both cAMP and cGMP. PDE10A expression is induced in various human tumor cell lines, and PDE10A inhibition suppresses tumor cell growth. Chemotherapy drug such as doxorubicin (DOX) is widely used in chemotherapy. However, cardiotoxicity of DOX remains to be a serious clinical complication. In the current study, we aim to determine the role of PDE10A and the effect of PDE10A inhibition on cancer growth and cardiotoxicity induced by DOX.MethodsWe used global PDE10A knockout (KO) mice and PDE10A inhibitor TP-10 to block PDE10A function. DOX-induced cardiotoxicity was evaluated in C57Bl/6J mice and nude mice with implanted ovarian cancer xenografts. Isolated adult mouse cardiomyocytes and a human ovarian cancer cell line were used for in vitro functional and mechanistic studies.ResultsWe found that PDE10A deficiency or inhibition alleviated DOX-induced myocardial atrophy, apoptosis, and dysfunction in C57Bl/6J mice. RNA sequencing study revealed a number of PDE10A-regulated signaling pathways involved in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. PDE10A inhibition increased the death, decreased the proliferation, and potentiated the effect of DOX on various human cancer cells. Importantly, in nude mice with implanted ovarian cancer xenografts, PDE10A inhibition attenuated tumor growth while protecting DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In isolated cardiomyocytes, PDE10A contributed to DOX-induced cardiomyocyte death via increasing Top2β (topoisomerase 2β) expression, mitochondrial dysfunction, and DNA damage by antagonizing cGMP/PKG (protein kinase G) signaling. PDE10A contributed to cardiomyocyte atrophy via potentiating FoxO3 (forkhead box O3) signaling via both cAMP/PKA (protein kinase A)- and cGMP/PKG-dependent signaling.ConclusionsTaken together, our study elucidates a novel role for PDE10A in cardiotoxicity induced by DOX and cancer growth. Given that PDE10A has been already proven to be a safe drug target, PDE10A inhibition may represent a novel therapeutic strategy in cancer therapy, with effects preventing DOX-induced cardiotoxicity and simultaneously antagonizing cancer growth.
