Elevated ABCB1 Expression Confers Acquired Resistance to Aurora Kinase Inhibitor GSK-1070916 in Cancer Cells.

ABSTRACT: The emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR) has been a major issue for effective cancer chemotherapy as well as targeted therapy. One prominent factor that causes MDR is the overexpression of ABCB1 transporter. In the present study, we revealed that the Aurora kinase inhibitor GSK-1070916 is a substrate of ABCB1. GSK-1070916 is a newly developed inhibitor that is currently under clinical investigation. The cytotoxicity assay showed that overexpression of ABCB1 significantly hindered the anticancer effect of GSK-1070916 and the drug resistance can be abolished by the addition of an ABCB1 inhibitor. GSK-1070916 concentration-dependently stimulated ABCB1 ATPase activity. The HPLC drug accumulation assay suggested that the ABCB1-overexpressing cells had lower levels of intracellular GSK-1070916 compared with the parental cells. GSK-1070916 also showed high binding affinity to ABCB1 substrate-binding site in the computational docking analysis. In conclusion, our study provides strong evidence that ABCB1 can confer resistance to GSK-1070916, which should be taken into consideration in clinical setting.

Project description:The overexpressing ABCB1 transporter is one of the key factors leading to multidrug resistance (MDR). Thus, many ABCB1 inhibitors have been found to be able to overcome ABCB1-mediated MDR. However, some inhibitors also work as a substrate of ABCB1, which indicates that in order to achieve an effective reversal dosage, a higher concentration is needed to overcome the pumped function of ABCB1, which may concurrently increase the toxicity. WYE-354 is an effective and specific mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) inhibitor, which recently has been reported to reverse ABCB1-mediated MDR. In the current study, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was carried out to determine the cell viability and reversal effect of WYE-354 in parental and drug-resistant cells. Drug accumulation was performed to examine the effect of WYE-354 on the cellular accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs. The ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity of the ABCB1 transporter in the presence or absence of WYE-354 was conducted in order to determine the impact of WYE-354 on ATP hydrolysis. Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence assay were used to investigate the protein molecules related to MDR. In addition, the interaction between the WYE-354 and ABCB1 transporter was investigated via in silico analysis. We demonstrated that WYE-354 is a substrate of ABCB1, that the overexpression of the ABCB1 transporter decreases the efficacy of WYE-354, and that the resistant WYE-354 can be reversed by an ABCB1 inhibitor at a pharmacological achievable concentration. Furthermore, WYE-354 increased the intracellular accumulation of paclitaxel in the ABCB1-mediated MDR cell line, without affecting the corresponding parental cell line, which indicated that WYE-354 could compete with other chemotherapeutic drugs for the ABCB1 transporter substrate binding site. In addition, WYE-354 received a high score in the docking analysis, indicating a strong interaction between WYE-354 and the ABCB1 transporter. The results of the ATPase analysis showed that WYE-354 could stimulate ABCB1 ATPase activity. Treatment with WYE-354 did not affect the protein expression or subcellular localization of the ABCB1. This study provides evidence that WYE-354 is a substrate of the ABCB1 transporter, implicating that WYE-354 should be avoided for use in ABCB1-mediated MDR cancer.
