Imatinib-induced changes in expression profile of microRNA in plasma of mice - comparison with doxorubicin

ABSTRACT: Cardiotoxicity is serious adverse reaction of cancer chemotherapy and may lead to critical heart damage. Imatinib mesylate (IMB), a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is sometimes accompanied by severe cardiovascular complications. To minimize the risk, early biomarkers of such complications are of utmost importance. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are, nowadays intensively studied as potential biomarkers of many pathological processes. Many miRNAs appear to be specific in some tissues, including heart. Here, we have explored the potential of specific miRNAs to be early markers of IMB-induced cardiotoxicity. Doxorubicin (DOX), an anthracycline with well-known cardiotoxicity, was used for comparison. NMRI mice were treated with IMB or DOX for nine days in doses corresponding to the highest recommended doses in oncological patients. Then, plasmatic levels of miRNAs were analyzed by miRNA microarrays and selected cardio-specific miRNAs were quantified using qPCR. The plasmatic level of miR-1a, miR-133a, miR-133b, miR-339, miR-7058, miR-6236 and miR-6240 were the most different between IMB-treated and control mice. Interestingly, most of the miRNAs affected by DOX were also affected by IMB with the same trends. Concerning selected microRNAs in hearts of individual mice, only miR-34a was significantly increased after DOX treatment and only miR-205 was significantly decreased after IMB and DOX treatment. However, changes in any miRNA expression did not correlate with level of troponin T, classical marker of heart injury.

Project description:Many oncology drugs have been found to induce cardiotoxicity in a subset of patients, which significantly limits their clinical use and impedes the benefit of lifesaving anti-cancer treatments. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) carry donor-specific genetic information and have been proposed for explore the inter-individual difference in oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity. Herein, we evaluated the inter- and intra- individual variability of iPSC-CM-related assays and presented a practical approach for using donor-specific iPSC-CMs to predict personalized doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) prior to chemotherapy. Our findings demonstrated that donor-specific iPSC-CMs exhibited greater line-to-line variability than the intra-individual variability in impedance cytotoxicity and transcriptome assays. The variable and dose-dependent cytotoxic responses of iPSC-CMs resembled those observed in clinical practice, and largely replicated the reported mechanisms of DIC. By categorizing iPSC-CMs into DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive cell lines based on their phenotypic reactions to DOX, we found that the sensitivity of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to DOX may predict in vivo DIC risk. Furthermore, we assessed the limitations of the model for identification of potential genetic/molecular biomarker and pinpointed a differentially expressed gene, DND microRNA-mediated repression inhibitor 1 (DND1), between the DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive iPSC-CMs. We also discussed the selection of DOX dose and exposure duration for inter-individual variability of DIC assessment. Our results support the utility of donor-specific iPSC-CMs in assessing inter-individual difference and enabling personalized cardiotoxicity prediction. Further studies will encompass a large panel of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to investigate the role of the DND1 and known DIC genetic variants, and to identify potential novel molecular and genetic biomarkers for predicting DOX and other oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity.
