PDA Indolylmaleimides Induce Anti-Tumor Effects in Prostate Carcinoma Cell Lines through Mitotic Death

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Castrate resistant prostate cancer in men shares several characteristics with late-stage canine prostate cancer. Consequently, dogs became a model organism for the study of the human disease. Due to current insufficient therapies, evaluation of novel therapeutic agents for late-stage prostate cancer is of considerable interest for both species. Methods: In this interdisciplinary study we characterized the influence of two indolylmaleimides (PDA-66 and PDA-377) on human and canine prostate carcinoma cell lines. For this purpose, we analyzed morphology, proliferation and apoptosis, recorded live cell imaging movies and performed whole transcriptome sequencing. Results: While PDA-377 showed only weak growth inhibition on the human prostate cancer cell lines, PDA-66 inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in all prostate carcinoma cell lines with concentrations in the low micromolar range. Morphological characterization and whole transcriptome sequencing revealed that PDA-66 induces mitotic death through its microtubule-depolymerizing ability. Discussion: PDA-66 appears to be a worthwhile anti-mitotic agent for further evaluation. The similarities in cellular and molecular response observed in the cell lines of both origins form a solid basis for the use of canine PCa in vivo models to provide valuable transferable findings to the benefit of both species.

Project description:Background: Canine prostate adenocarcinoma (PAC) and transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) are typically characterized by metastasis and chemoresistance. Cell lines are important model systems for developing new therapeutic strategies. However, as they adapt to culturing conditions and undergo clonal selection, they can diverge from the tissue from which they were originally derived. Therefore, a comprehensive characterization of cell lines and their original tissues is paramount. Methods: This study compared the transcriptomes of nine canine cell lines derived from PAC, PAC metastasis and TCC to their respective original primary tumor or metastasis tissues. Special interests were laid on cell culture-related differences, epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), the prostate and bladder cancer pathways, therapeutic targets in the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway and genes correlated with chemoresistance towards doxorubicin and carboplatin. Results: Independent analyses for PAC, PAC metastasis and TCC revealed 1,743, 3,941 and 463 genes, respectively, differentially expressed in the cell lines relative to their original tissues (DEGs). While genes associated with tumor microenvironment were mostly downregulated in the cell lines, patient-specific EMT features were conserved. Furthermore, examination of the prostate and bladder cancer pathways revealed extensive concordance between cell lines and tissues. Interestingly, all cell lines preserved downstream PI3K-AKT signaling, but each featured a unique therapeutic target signature. Additionally, resistance towards doxorubicin was associated with G2/M cell cycle transition and cell membrane biosynthesis, while carboplatin resistance correlated with histone, m- and tRNA processing. Conclusions: Comparative whole-transcriptome profiling of cell lines and their original tissues identifies models with conserved therapeutic target expression. Moreover, it is useful for selecting suitable negative controls, i.e., cell lines lacking therapeutic target expression, increasing the transfer efficiency from in vitro to primary neoplasias for new therapeutic protocols. In summary, the dataset presented here constitutes a rich resource for canine prostate and bladder cancer research.
