BET Protein Inhibitor JQ1 Induces Cell Cycle Arrest in Mesenchymal Stem Cells


ABSTRACT: Efficacy and safety of anticancer drugs are traditionally studied using cancer cell lines and animal models. Recently, a potential anticancer agent, JQ1, an inhibitor of bromodomain and extra terminal (BET) protein, has been shown to promote apoptosis of cancerous cells by arresting them in G1 phase of the cell cycle. However, the effect of JQ1 on normal cells is poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the safety of JQ1 by using human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as an in vitro model system. Our results indicated that JQ1 induced cell cycle arrest in G1 phase of MSCs, but did not promote apoptosis. Microarray analysis of MSCs treated with JQ1 indicated that it down-regulated genes involved not only in cell cycle regulation but also DNA replication, mitosis, and cell division. Although many studies have suggested the potential of JQ1 as an anticancer agent, our findings suggest that it caused a deleterious effect on normal cells and may not be safe for anticancer therapy.
