This study aimed to explore the possible mechanism that PI-103, a dual inhibitor of phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase and m TOR, enhances the sensitivity of SKOV3/DDP ovarian cancer cell line to cisplatin chemotherapy. The results showed that PI-103 could significantly increase the sensitivity of SKVO3/DDP cells to cisplatin through inhibiting the activation of PI3K/Akt/m TOR signaling pathway and inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.展开更多

Methods: Using the corresponding dose calculated from clinical chemotherapy at 30 mg cisplatin per cycle, we established 3Ao/cDDP with 3Ao exposed at regular intervals and repeatedly to high-level concentration of cisplatin at 10 mg/ml for 24 hours each time. Expressions of LRP, MRP, P-gp, GSTp and TopoII were quantitatively detected with FCM. For drug resistance reversal, cyclosporin A and ligustrazine were administered singly or in combination at the maximal dose without cytotoxicity. Inhibition rates were determined by MTT assay. Results: 3Ao/cDDP was established after 4.5 months, with resistance factor 1.6 which was similar to clinical resistance degree. Low expression levels of MRP and P-gp were found in both 3Ao and 3Ao/cDDP (P>0.05), and LRP and GSTp expression levels in 3Ao/cDDP were significantly higher than those in 3Ao (P<0.005 and P<0.05, respectively), and TopoII in 3Ao/cDDP was significantly lower vs 3Ao (P<0.05). The inhibition rate of cDDP was 20.807±0.015%, cDDP plus ligustrazine 27.421±0.07% (P>0.05 vs cDDP), cDDP plus cyclosporin A 49.635±0.021% (P<0.01 vs cDDP), and cDDP plus ligustrazine and cyclosporin A 58.861±0.014% (P<0.01 vs cDDP). Conclusions: 3Ao/cDDP, induced by cisplatin and established by imitating the characteristics of clinical chemotherapy for epithelial ovarian cancer, was an ideal model for investigation of cisplatin resistance in vitro. Cisplatin resistance in 3Ao/cDDP could be accounted for by higher LRP, GSTp and lower TopoII expression and was not associated with MRP or P-gp. Ligustrazine had no significant reversal effect on cisplatin resistance, but cyclosporin A could reverse the resistance effectively.展开更多

However, the possible effect of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells and the mechanism are needed to be investigated. Methods： Lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and its DDP-resistant cell line A549/DDP were treated with DDP and/or recombinant human Endostatin. Difference in drug resistance was analyzed between different regi- mens and between different cell lines after a 72 h-treatment in vitro. And below the non-cytotoxic concentration of rh-End- ostatin, the possibility of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP was evaluated. The resistance protein which was detected in the study included P glycoprotein （P-gp） and topoisomerase II （Topo-II）. Results： Rh-Endostatin below 400 IJg/mL showed no cytotoxicity in either A549 or A549/DDP after 72 h-treatment with it. The inhibited concentration of 50% （IC50） observed for DDP was （0.79 _＋ 0.05） IJg/mL in A549 and （13.2 ＋ 1.1） in A549/DDP respectively. IC50 was reduced to 2.57 ＋ 0.05 #g/mL in A549/DDP treated by rh-Endostatin below the non-cytotoxic concentrations in combination with DDP, with a reversal fold （RF） of 5.14 and a relative reversal rate of 85.6%. Apoptotic rates were 2.01%, 13.47% and 29.26% re- spectively for cells treated with rh-Endostain, DDP, and the combination. The rate of the A549/DDP control group was 0.99%. The expression level of P-gp or Topo-II was higher in A549/DDP cells than in A549 cells. Rh-Endostatin may partially reverse DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells in vitro, with a probable mechanism related to lowering expression of P-gp and Topo-II. Conclusien： Rh-Endostatin of non-cytotoxic dose partially reversed cisptatin resistance in cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549/DDP. Rh-Endostatin reversed the resistance of A549/DDP cells to DDP, which may be related to decreased protein expression of P-gp and Topo-II in A549/DDP cells.展开更多

文摘Objective: To investigate the mechanism of resistance and reversal effect of ligustrazine and cyclosporin A in cisplatin--induced multidrug resistance ovarian cancer cell line 3Ao/cDDP. Methods: Using the corresponding dose calculated from clinical chemotherapy at 30 mg cisplatin per cycle, we established 3Ao/cDDP with 3Ao exposed at regular intervals and repeatedly to high-level concentration of cisplatin at 10 mg/ml for 24 hours each time. Expressions of LRP, MRP, P-gp, GSTp and TopoII were quantitatively detected with FCM. For drug resistance reversal, cyclosporin A and ligustrazine were administered singly or in combination at the maximal dose without cytotoxicity. Inhibition rates were determined by MTT assay. Results: 3Ao/cDDP was established after 4.5 months, with resistance factor 1.6 which was similar to clinical resistance degree. Low expression levels of MRP and P-gp were found in both 3Ao and 3Ao/cDDP (P>0.05), and LRP and GSTp expression levels in 3Ao/cDDP were significantly higher than those in 3Ao (P<0.005 and P<0.05, respectively), and TopoII in 3Ao/cDDP was significantly lower vs 3Ao (P<0.05). The inhibition rate of cDDP was 20.807±0.015%, cDDP plus ligustrazine 27.421±0.07% (P>0.05 vs cDDP), cDDP plus cyclosporin A 49.635±0.021% (P<0.01 vs cDDP), and cDDP plus ligustrazine and cyclosporin A 58.861±0.014% (P<0.01 vs cDDP). Conclusions: 3Ao/cDDP, induced by cisplatin and established by imitating the characteristics of clinical chemotherapy for epithelial ovarian cancer, was an ideal model for investigation of cisplatin resistance in vitro. Cisplatin resistance in 3Ao/cDDP could be accounted for by higher LRP, GSTp and lower TopoII expression and was not associated with MRP or P-gp. Ligustrazine had no significant reversal effect on cisplatin resistance, but cyclosporin A could reverse the resistance effectively.

文摘Objective： Recombinant human Endostatin （rh-Endostatin, YH-16） can reverse cisplatin resistance in A549/DDP cells. However, the possible effect of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells and the mechanism are needed to be investigated. Methods： Lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 and its DDP-resistant cell line A549/DDP were treated with DDP and/or recombinant human Endostatin. Difference in drug resistance was analyzed between different regi- mens and between different cell lines after a 72 h-treatment in vitro. And below the non-cytotoxic concentration of rh-End- ostatin, the possibility of rh-Endostatin in reversing DDP-resistance in A549/DDP was evaluated. The resistance protein which was detected in the study included P glycoprotein （P-gp） and topoisomerase II （Topo-II）. Results： Rh-Endostatin below 400 IJg/mL showed no cytotoxicity in either A549 or A549/DDP after 72 h-treatment with it. The inhibited concentration of 50% （IC50） observed for DDP was （0.79 _＋ 0.05） IJg/mL in A549 and （13.2 ＋ 1.1） in A549/DDP respectively. IC50 was reduced to 2.57 ＋ 0.05 #g/mL in A549/DDP treated by rh-Endostatin below the non-cytotoxic concentrations in combination with DDP, with a reversal fold （RF） of 5.14 and a relative reversal rate of 85.6%. Apoptotic rates were 2.01%, 13.47% and 29.26% re- spectively for cells treated with rh-Endostain, DDP, and the combination. The rate of the A549/DDP control group was 0.99%. The expression level of P-gp or Topo-II was higher in A549/DDP cells than in A549 cells. Rh-Endostatin may partially reverse DDP-resistance in A549/DDP cells in vitro, with a probable mechanism related to lowering expression of P-gp and Topo-II. Conclusien： Rh-Endostatin of non-cytotoxic dose partially reversed cisptatin resistance in cisplatin-resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549/DDP. Rh-Endostatin reversed the resistance of A549/DDP cells to DDP, which may be related to decreased protein expression of P-gp and Topo-II in A549/DDP cells.

文摘Growing evidence suggests an association between epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT),a hallmark of tumor malignancy,and chemoresistance to a number of anti-cancer drugs.However,the mechanism of EMT induction in the process of acquiring anti-cancer drug resistance remains unclear.To address this issue,we obtained a number of cisplatin-resistant clones from LoVo cells and found that almost all of them lost cell-cell contacts.In these clones,the epithelial marker E-cadherin was downregulated,whereas the mesenchymal marker N-cadherin was upregulated.Moreover,the expression of EMT-related transcription factors,including Slug,was elevated.On the other hand,the upregulation of other mesenchymal marker Vimentin was weak,suggesting that the mesenchymal-like phenotypic changes occurred in these cisplatin-resistant clones.These mesenchymal-like features of cisplatin-resistant clones were partially reversed to parental epithelial-like features by treatment with transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)receptor kinase inhibitors,indicating that TGF-βsignaling is involved in cisplatin-induced the mesenchymallike phenotypic changes.Moreover,cisplatin was observed to enhance the secretion of TGF-βinto the culture media without influencing TGF-βgene transcription.These results suggest that cisplatin may induce the mesenchymal-like phenotypic changes by enhancing TGF-βsecretion,ultimately resulting in drug resistance.

文摘The platinum-based chemotherapy is one of the most frequently used treatment protocols for lung adenocarcinoma(LUAD),and chemoresistance,however,usually results in treatment failure and limits its application in the clinic.It has been shown that microRNAs(miRNAs)play a significant role in tumor chemoresistance.In this study,miR-125b was identified as a specific cisplatin(DDP)-resistant gene in LUAD,as indicated by the bioinformatics analysis and the real-time quantitative PCR assay.The decreased serum level of miR-125b in LUAD patients was correlated with the poor treatment response rate and short survival time.MiR-125b decreased the A549/DDP proliferation,and the multiple drug resistance-and autophagy-related protein expression levels,which were all reversed by the inhibition of miR-125b.In addition,xenografts of human tumors in nude mice were suppressed by miR-125b,demonstrating that through autophagy regulation,miR-125b could reverse the DDP resistance in LUAD cells,both in vitro and in vivo.Further mechanistic studies indicated that miR-125b directly repressed the expression levels of RORA and its downstream BNIP3L,which in turn inhibited autophagy and reversed chemoresistance.Based on these findings,miR-125b in combination with DDP might be an effective treatment option to overcome DDP resistance in LUAD.

文摘Objectives:Deletion of Fscn2 gene in mice has been linked to progressive hearing loss and degeneration of cochlear cells.Cisplatin,an antitumor drug,can cause various side effects,including ototoxicity.The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Fscn2 on cisplatin-induced hearing impairment in mice and to explore the possible mechanism.Methods:Two-week-old Fscn2^(+/+)mice and Fscn2^(−/−)mice were treated with two doses of cisplatin,with a 3-day recovery period in between.ABR(auditory evoked brain stem response)thresholds were measured and cochlear pathology was observed at 3 weeks of age.Results:Both Fscn2^(+/+)and Fscn2^(−/−)mice showed hearing loss under the effect of cisplatin,but the impairment was more severe in Fscn2^(−/−)mice.Further experiments showed that the percentages of outer hair cell(OHC)and spiral ganglion neuron(SGN)loss were significantly higher in cisplatin-treated Fscn2^(−/−)mice compared to Fscn2^(+/+)mice.Additionally,knockdown of Fscn2 in HEI-OC1 cells worsened cisplatin-induced cell apoptosis.Conclusion:FSCN2 mediates reduction of CDDP induced ototoxicity by inhibiting cell apoptosis.

文摘The impact of different iron metabolism processes(DIMP)on ovarian cancer remains unclear.In this study,we employed various gene chips and databases to investigate the role of DIMP in the initiation and development of ovarian cancer.cBioPortal was used to determine mutations in DIMP-associated genes in ovarian cancer.Kaplan-Meier plotter was used to examine the influence of DIMP on the prognosis of ovarian cancer.By analyzing 1669 serous ovarian cancer cases,we identified a range of mutations in iron metabolism genes,notably in those coding for the transferrin receptor(19%),melanotransferrin(19%),and ceruloplasmin(10%)in the iron import process,and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase(9%),hepcidin antimicrobial peptide(9%),metal regulatory transcription factor 1(8%),and bone morphogenetic protein 6(8%)in the iron regulation process.Compared to the unaltered group,the group with gene alterations exhibited a higher tumor mutation burden count(43 vs.54)and more advanced histologic grade(78.19%vs.87.90%).Compared to the normal ovarian counterparts,a reduction in expression was observed in 9 out of the 14 genes involved in iron utilization and 4 out of the 5 genes involved in iron export in ovarian cancer;in contrast,an increase in expression was observed in 2 out of the 3 genes involved in iron storage in ovarian cancer.Furthermore,in cisplatin-resistant cells compared to cisplatin-sensitive ones,the expression of all genes in iron storage and 13 out of 14 genes in iron import was decreased,while that of 8 out of the 10 genes in iron utilization was increased.In addition,survival curve analysis indicated that a higher expression in the majority of genes in the iron import process(12/21),or a reduced expression in most genes in the iron export process(4/5)correlated with poor progression-free survival.Additionally,TGF-βcould regulate the expression of most iron metabolism-associated genes;particularly,expression of genes involved in the iron storage process(2/2)was inhibited after TGF-β1 or TGF-β2 treatment.In conclusion,DIMP plays multifaceted roles in the initiation,chemo-resistance,and prognosis of ovarian cancer.Therapeutically targeting DIMP may pave the way for more tailored treatment approaches for ovarian cancer.

文摘Translesion DNA synthesis(TLS)can bypass DNA lesions caused by chemotherapeutic drugs,which usually result in drug resistance.Given its key role in mutagenesis and cell survival after DNA damage,inhibition of the TLS pathway has emerged as a potential target for improving the efficacy of DNA-damaging agents such as cisplatin(CDDP),a widely used anticancer agent.Unfortunately,few suitable natural TLS inhibitors have been reported.Here,we found that a triterpenoid compound Ganoboninketal C(26-3)from Ganoderma boninense,a traditional Chinese medicine,can impair CDDP-induced TLS polymerase eta(Polη)focus formation,PCNA monoubiquitination as well as mutagenesis.Moreover,26-3 can significantly sensitize tumor cells to CDDP killing and reduce the proportion of cancer stem cells in AGS and promote apoptosis after CDDP exposure.Interestingly,26-3 can also sensitize tumor cells to Gefitinib therapy.Mechanistically,through RNA-seq analysis,we found that 26-3 could abrogate the CDDP-induced upregulation of Polηand PIDD(p53-induced protein with a death domain),2 known factors promoting TLS pathway.Furthermore,we found that activating transcription factor 3 is a potential novel TLS modulator.Taken together,we have identified a natural TLS inhibitor 26-3,which can be potentially used as an adjuvant to improve clinical efficacy.
