Deregulation of PI3K signaling plays an important role in tumorigenesis and drug resistance in NSCLC. The activity of PI3Kα-selective inhibition against KRAS-mutated NSCLC remains largely unknown.Methods: Cell proliferation was detected by sulforhodamine B assay. Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were measured by flow cytometry. Cell signaling was assessed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. RNA interference was used to down-regulate the expression of cyclin D1. Human NSCLC xenografts were employed to detect therapeutic efficacy in vivo.Results: CYH33 possessed variable activity against a panel of KRAS-mutated NSCLC cell lines. Although CYH33 blocked AKT phosphorylation in all tested cells, Rb phosphorylation decreased in CYH33-sensitive, but not in CYH33-resistant cells, which was consistent with G1 phase arrest in sensitive cells. Combined treatment with the CDK4/6 inhibitor, PD0332991, and CYH33 displayed synergistic activity against the proliferation of both CYH33-sensitive and CYH33-resistant cells, which was accompanied by enhanced G1-phase arrest. Moreover, down-regulation of cyclin D1 sensitized NSCLC cells to CYH33. Reciprocally, CYH33 abrogated the PD0332991-induced up-regulation of cyclin D1 and phosphorylation of AKT in A549 cells. Co-treatment with these two drugs demonstrated synergistic activity against A549 and H23 xenografts, with enhanced inhibition of Rb phosphorylation.Conclusions: Simultaneous inhibition of PI3Kα and CDK4/6 displayed synergistic activity against KRAS-mutated NSCLC. These data provide a mechanistic rationale for the combination of a PI3Kα inhibitor and a CDK4/6 inhibitor for the treatment of KRASmutated NSCLC.展开更多
Chemical effects on the Kβ/Kα intensity ratios and △E energy differences for Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn complexes were investigated.

The samples were excited by 59.5 keV γ-rays from a ^241Am annular radioactive source. K X-rays emitted by samples were counted by an Ultra-LEGe detector with a resolution of 150 eV at 5.9 keV. We observed the effects of different ligands on the Kβ/Kα intensity ratios and △E energy differences for Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn complexes. We tried to investigate chemical effects on central atoms using the behaviors of different ligands in these complexes. The experimental values of Kβ/Kα were compared with the theoretical and other experimental values of pure Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn.展开更多
