Tepoxalin increases chemotherapy efficacy in drug-resistant breast cancer cells overexpressing the multidrug transporter gene ABCB1.

ABSTRACT: Effective cancer chemotherapy treatment requires both therapy delivery and retention by malignant cells. Cancer cell overexpression of the multidrug transmembrane transporter gene ABCB1 (MDR1, multi-drug resistance protein 1) thwarts therapy retention, leading to a drug-resistant phenotype. We explored the phenotypic impact of ABCB1 overexpression in normal human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs) via acute adenoviral delivery and in breast cancer cell lines with stable integration of inducible ABCB1 expression. One hundred sixty-two genes were differentially expressed between ABCB1-expressing and GFP-expressing HMECs, including the gene encoding the cyclooxygenase-2 protein, PTGS2. Several breast cancer cell lines with inducible ABCB1 expression demonstrated sensitivity to the 5-lipoxygenase, cyclooxygenase-1/2 inhibitor tepoxalin in two-dimensional drug response assays, and combination treatment of tepoxalin either with chemotherapies or with histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors improved therapeutic efficacy in these lines. Moreover, selection for the ABCB1-expressing cell population was reduced in three-dimensional co-cultures of ABCB1-expressing and GFP-expressing cells when chemotherapy was given in combination with tepoxalin. Further study is warranted to ascertain the clinical potential of tepoxalin, an FDA-approved therapeutic for use in domesticated mammals, to restore chemosensitivity and improve drug response in patients with ABCB1-overexpressing drug-resistant breast cancers.

Erdafitinib Resensitizes ABCB1-Overexpressing Multidrug-Resistant Cancer Cells to Cytotoxic Anticancer Drugs.

Project description:The development of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer patients, which is often associated with the overexpression of ABCB1 (MDR1, P-glycoprotein) in cancer cells, remains a significant problem in cancer chemotherapy. ABCB1 is one of the major adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters that can actively efflux a range of anticancer drugs out of cancer cells, causing MDR. Given the lack of Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatment for multidrug-resistant cancers, we explored the prospect of repurposing erdafitinib, the first fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) kinase inhibitor approved by the FDA, to reverse MDR mediated by ABCB1. We discovered that by reducing the function of ABCB1, erdafitinib significantly resensitized ABCB1-overexpressing multidrug-resistant cancer cells to therapeutic drugs at sub-toxic concentrations. Results of erdafitinib-stimulated ABCB1 ATPase activity and in silico docking analysis of erdafitinib binding to the substrate-binding pocket of ABCB1 further support the interaction between erdafitinib and ABCB1. Moreover, our data suggest that ABCB1 is not a major mechanism of resistance to erdafitinib in cancer cells. In conclusion, we revealed an additional action of erdafitinib as a potential treatment option for multidrug-resistant cancers, which should be evaluated in future drug combination trials.

Sitravatinib Sensitizes ABCB1- and ABCG2-Overexpressing Multidrug-Resistant Cancer Cells to Chemotherapeutic Drugs.

Project description:The development of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer patients driven by the overexpression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB1 or ABCG2 in cancer cells presents one of the most daunting therapeutic complications for clinical scientists to resolve. Despite many novel therapeutic strategies that have been tested over the years, there is still no approved treatment for multidrug-resistant cancers to date. We have recently adopted a drug repurposing approach to identify therapeutic agents that are clinically active and at the same time, capable of reversing multidrug resistance mediated by ABCB1 and ABCG2. In the present study, we investigated the effect of sitravatinib, a novel multitargeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, on human ABCB1 and ABCG2 in multidrug-resistant cancer cell lines. We discovered that at submicromolar concentrations, sitravatinib re-sensitizes ABCB1- and ABCG2-overexpressing multidrug-resistant cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. We found that sitravatinib blocks the drug efflux function of ABCB1 and ABCG2 in a concentration-dependent manner but does not significantly alter the protein expression of ABCB1 or ABCG2 in multidrug-resistant cancer cells. In conclusion, we reveal a potential drug repositioning treatment option for multidrug-resistant cancers by targeting ABCB1 and ABCG2 with sitravatinib and should be further investigated in future clinical trials.

Sapitinib Reverses Anticancer Drug Resistance in Colon Cancer Cells Overexpressing the ABCB1 Transporter.

Project description:The efficacy of anti-cancer drugs in patients can be attenuated by the development of multi-drug resistance (MDR) due to ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters overexpression. In this in vitro study, we determined the reversal efficacy of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EFGR) inhibitor, saptinib, in SW620 and SW720/Ad300 colon cancer cells and HEK293/ABCB1 cells which overexpress the ABCB1 transporter. Sapitinib significantly increased the efficacy of paclitaxel and doxorubicin in ABCB1 overexpressing cells without altering the expression or the subcellular location of the ABCB1 transporter. Sapitinib significantly increased the accumulation of [3H]-paclitaxel in SW620/AD300 cells probably by stimulating ATPase activity which could competitively inhibit the uptake of [3H]-paclitaxel. Furthermore, sapitinib inhibited the growth of resistant multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS). The docking study indicated that sapitinib interacted with the efflux site of ABCB1 transporter by π-π interaction and two hydrogen bonds. In conclusion, our study suggests that sapitinib surmounts MDR mediated by ABCB1 transporter in cancer cells.

The FLT3 inhibitor midostaurin selectively resensitizes ABCB1-overexpressing multidrug-resistant cancer cells to conventional chemotherapeutic agents.

Project description:The occurrence of multidrug resistance (MDR) associated with the overexpression of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein ABCB1 in cancer cells remains a significant obstacle to successful cancer chemotherapy. Therefore, discovering modulators that are capable of inhibiting the drug efflux function or expression of ABCB1 and re-sensitizing multidrug-resistant cancer cells to anticancer agents is of great clinical importance. Regrettably, due to potential adverse events associated with drug-drug interactions and toxicity in patients, researchers have struggled to develop a synthetic inhibitor of ABCB1 that is clinically applicable to improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy. Alternatively, through drug repositioning of approved drugs, we discovered that the FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) inhibitor midostaurin blocks the drug transport function of ABCB1 and re-sensitizes ABCB1-overexpressing multidrug-resistant cancer cells to conventional chemotherapeutic drugs. Our findings were further supported by results demonstrating that midostaurin potentiates drug-induced apoptosis in ABCB1-overexpressing cancer cells and inhibits the ATPase activity of ABCB1. Considering that midostaurin is a clinically approved anticancer agent, our findings revealed an additional action of midostaurin and that patients with multidrug-resistant tumors may benefit from a combination therapy of midostaurin with standard chemotherapy, which should be further investigated.

Rutaecarpine Increases Anticancer Drug Sensitivity in Drug-Resistant Cells through MARCH8-Dependent ABCB1 Degradation.

Project description:The overexpression of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1; P-glycoprotein; MDR1) in some types of cancer cells is one of the mechanisms responsible for the development of multidrug resistance (MDR), which leads to the failure of chemotherapy. Therefore, it is important to inhibit the activity or reduce the expression level of ABCB1 to maintain an effective intracellular level of chemotherapeutic drugs. In this study, we found that rutaecarpine, a bioactive alkaloid isolated from Evodia Rutaecarpa, has the capacity to reverse ABCB1-mediated MDR. Our data indicated that the reversal effect of rutaecarpine was related to the attenuation of the protein level of ABCB1. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that ABCB1 is a newly discovered substrate of E3 ubiquitin ligase membrane-associated RING-CH 8 (MARCH8). MARCH8 can interact with ABCB1 and promote its ubiquitination and degradation. In short, rutaecarpine increased the degradation of ABCB1 protein by upregulating the protein level of MARCH8, thereby antagonizing ABCB1-mediated MDR. Notably, the treatment of rutaecarpine combined with other anticancer drugs exhibits a therapeutic effect on transplanted tumors. Therefore, our study provides a potential chemotherapeutic strategy of co-administrating rutaecarpine with other conventional chemotherapeutic agents to overcome MDR and improve therapeutic effect.

Methiothepin Increases Chemotherapy Efficacy against Resistant Melanoma Cells.

Project description:We previously reported that methiothepin, a small molecule known as a nonselective serotonin 5-HT receptor antagonist, inhibited the doxorubicin efflux activity of the Hedgehog receptor Ptch1 and enhanced the cytotoxic, pro-apoptotic, anti-proliferative, and anti-clonogenic effects of doxorubicin on adrenocortical carcinoma cells. Here, we show that methiothepin also inhibits doxorubicin efflux and increases doxorubicin cytotoxicity in melanoma cells which endogenously overexpress Ptch1. Melanoma patients having the BRAFV600E mutation are treated with vemurafenib, an inhibitor of BRAFV600E, often in combination with trametinib, an inhibitor of MEK. Almost all patients ultimately acquire resistance to the treatment leading to disease progression. Here, we report that methiothepin overcomes the resistance of BRAFV600E melanoma cells by enhancing the cytotoxicity of vemurafenib and trametinib on these cells leading to melanoma cells death. We observe that the addition of methiothepin to vemurafenib prevents migration of resistant melanoma cells more efficiently than vemurafenib alone. Our results provide an additional proof that Ptch1 drug efflux inhibition increases the effectiveness of anti-cancer treatments and overcomes resistance of melanoma cells expressing Ptch1.

Overcoming ABCB1 mediated multidrug resistance in castration resistant prostate cancer

Project description:The few available therapies for mCRPC patients include taxanes docetaxel (DTX) and cabazitaxel (CBZ). However, development of resistance limits their clinical use. PCa that relapses after hormonal therapies, referred to as castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), often presents with metastases (mCRPC) that are the major cause of mortality. The few available therapies for mCRPC patients include taxanes docetaxel (DTX) and cabazitaxel (CBZ). However, development of resistance limits their clinical use. To study taxanes resistance, we produced CBZ resistant C4-2B cells (RC4-2B) and documented resistance to both CBZ and DTX in cell culture and in 3D prostaspheres settings. RNAseq identified increased expression of ABCB1 in RC4-2B, that was confirmed by immunoblotting and immunofluorescent analysis. ABCB1-specific inhibitor elacridar reversed CBZ and DTX resistance in RC4-2B cells, confirming ABCB1-mediated resistance mechanism.

Trametinib modulates cancer multidrug resistance by targeting ABCB1 transporter.

Project description:Overexpression of adenine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporters is one of the main reasons of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer cells. Trametinib, a novel specific small-molecule mitogen-activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK) inhibitor, is currently used for the treatment of melanoma in clinic. In this study, we investigated the effect of trametinib on MDR mediated by ABC transporters. Trametinib significantly potentiated the effects of two ABCB1 substrates vincristine and doxorubicin on inhibition of growth, arrest of cell cycle and induction of apoptosis in cancer cells overexpressed ABCB1, but not ABCC1 and ABCG2. Furthermore, trametinib did not alter the sensitivity of non-ABCB1 substrate cisplatin. Mechanistically, trametinib potently blocked the drug-efflux activity of ABCB1 to increase the intracellular accumulation of rhodamine 123 and doxorubicin and stimulates the ATPase of ABCB1 without alteration of the expression of ABCB1. Importantly, trametinib remarkably enhanced the effect of vincristine against the xenografts of ABCB1-overexpressing cancer cells in nude mice. The predicted binding mode showed the hydrophobic interactions of trametinib within the large drug binding cavity of ABCB1. Consequently, our findings may have important implications for use of trametinib in combination therapy for cancer treatment.
