1. Proteasome inhibition can induce an autophagy-dependent apical activation of caspase-8
M A Laussmann, E Passante, H Düssmann, J A Rauen, M L Würstle, M E Delgado, M Devocelle, J H M Prehn, M Rehm Cell Death Differ. 2011 Oct;18(10):1584-97. doi: 10.1038/cdd.2011.27. Epub 2011 Apr 1.
Antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins are often highly expressed in chemotherapy-resistant cancers and impair mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilisation (MOMP), an important requirement for caspase activation via the intrinsic apoptosis pathway. Interestingly, although Bcl-2 overexpression in HeLa cervical cancer cells abrogated caspase processing in response to intrinsic apoptosis induction by staurosporine, tunicamycin or etoposide, residual caspase processing was observed following proteasome inhibition by bortezomib ([(1R)-3-methyl-1-({(2S)-3-phenyl-2-[(pyrazin-2-ylcarbonyl)amino]propanoyl}amino)butyl]boronic acid), epoxomicin (N-acetyl-N-methyl-lisoleucyl-L-isoleucyl-N-[(1S)-3-methyl-1-[[(2R)-2-methyloxiranyl]carbonyl]butyl]-L-threoninamide) or MG-132 (N-(benzyloxycarbonyl)leucinylleucinylleucinal). Similar responses were found in Bcl-2-overexpressing H460 NSCLC cells and Bax/Bak-deficient mouse embyronic fibroblasts. Mild caspase processing resulted in low DEVDase activities, which were MOMP independent and persisted for long periods without evoking immediate cell death. Surprisingly, depletion of caspase-3 and experiments in caspase-7-depleted MCF-7-Bcl-2 cells indicated that the DEVDase activity did not originate from effector caspases. Instead, Fas-associated death domain (FADD)-dependent caspase-8 activation was the major contributor to the slow, incomplete substrate cleavage. Caspase-8 activation was independent of death ligands, but required the induction of autophagy and the presence of Atg5. Depletion of XIAP or addition of XIAP-antagonising peptides resulted in a switch towards efficient apoptosis execution, suggesting that the requirement for MOMP was bypassed by activating the caspase-8/caspase-3 axis. Combination treatments of proteasome inhibitors and XIAP antagonists therefore represent a promising strategy to eliminate highly resistant cancer cells, which overexpress antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family members.
2. Radiopharmacokinetic and dosimetric parameters of 188Re-lanreotide in athymic mice with induced human cancer tumors
Eva M Molina-Trinidad, Consuelo Arteaga de Murphy, Guillermina Ferro-Flores, Eduardo Murphy-Stack, Helgi Jung-Cook Int J Pharm. 2006 Mar 9;310(1-2):125-30. doi: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2005.11.043. Epub 2006 Jan 19.
Radiolabeled peptides, like the somatostatin analogs, have been used for peptide receptor-mediated radionuclide therapy (PRMRT) in metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. The eight amino acid peptide 3-(2-naphthalenyl)-D-alanyl-L-cysteinyl-L-tyrosyl-D-tryptophyl-L-lysyl-L-valyl-L-cysteinyl-L-threoninamide,cyclic(2-->7)-disulfide (9Cl) (lanreotide) was found to bind to the five somatostatin tumor receptors. Lanreotide has been labeled via the bifunctional chelating agent, DOTA, to (111)In, and (90)Y. A direct labeling method was used to label lanreotide with (188)Re. Athymic mice with implanted human cancer tumors (uterine-cervix, renal, and neuroblastoma) were injected with radiochemically pure (188)Re-lanreotide (1.11 MBq). The percent injected activity (%IA/g) from serial blood samples was the input data for the WinNonlin computer program to obtain radiopharmacokinetic parameters. The organs' percent injected activity per gram of tissue (%IA/g) was extrapolated to the weights of a 70 kg male model organs and the number of nuclear transitions (N) were the input for the OLINDA/EXM program to obtain dosimetry estimates. Induced uterine-cervix tumors (HeLa cells) show a mean 2.4 %IA/g uptake up to 24 h and the tumor/blood ratio was over 1.85 (1.5-24 h post-injection) confirming (188)Re-lanreotide remains bound to the tumor. The estimated tumor absorbed dose was 460 mGy/MBq. Human effective dose was 0.0182 mSv/MBq. Therefore, (188)Re-lanreotide is a good candidate for PRMRT and a clinical trial is being planned in order to acquire individual dosimetric data.
