  • Drug synergy drives conserved pathways to increase fission yeast lifespan. 25786258

    Aging occurs over time with gradual and progressive loss of physiological function. Strategies to reduce the rate of functional loss and mitigate the subsequent onset of deadly age-related diseases are being sought. We demonstrated previously that a combination of rapamycin and myriocin reduces age-related functional loss in the Baker's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and produces a synergistic increase in lifespan. Here we show that the same drug combination also produces a synergistic increase in the lifespan of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and does so by controlling signal transduction pathways conserved across a wide evolutionary time span ranging from yeasts to mammals. Pathways include the target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) protein kinase, the protein kinase A (PKA) and a stress response pathway, which in fission yeasts contains the Sty1 protein kinase, an ortholog of the mammalian p38 MAP kinase, a type of Stress Activated Protein Kinase (SAPK). These results along with previous studies in S. cerevisiae support the premise that the combination of rapamycin and myriocin enhances lifespan by regulating signaling pathways that couple nutrient and environmental conditions to cellular processes that fine-tune growth and stress protection in ways that foster long term survival. The molecular mechanisms for fine-tuning are probably species-specific, but since they are driven by conserved nutrient and stress sensing pathways, the drug combination may enhance survival in other organisms.

  • Synergy between the NAMPT inhibitor GMX1777(8) and pemetrexed in non-small cell lung cancer cells is mediated by PARP activation and enhanced NAD consumption. 25145669

    GMX1778 and its prodrug GMX1777 represent a new class of cancer drugs that targets nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) as a new strategy to interfere with biosynthesis of the key enzymatic cofactor NAD, which is critical for a number of cell functions, including DNA repair. Using a genome-wide synthetic lethal siRNA screen, we identified the folate pathway-related genes, deoxyuridine triphosphatase and dihydrofolate reductase, the silencing of which sensitized non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cells to the cytotoxic effects of GMX. Pemetrexed is an inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase currently used to treat patients with nonsquamous NSCLC. We found that combining pemetrexed with GMX1777 produced a synergistic therapeutic benefit in A549 and H1299 NSCLC cells in vitro and in a mouse A549 xenograft model of lung cancer. Pemetrexed is known to activate PARPs, thereby accelerating NAD consumption. Genetic or pharmacologic blockade of PARP activity inhibited this effect, impairing cell death by pemetrexed either alone or in combination with GMX1777. Conversely, inhibiting the base excision repair pathway accentuated NAD decline in response to GMX and the cytotoxicity of both agents either alone or in combination. These findings provide a mechanistic rationale for combining GMX1777 with pemetrexed as an effective new therapeutic strategy to treat nonsquamous NSCLC.

  • Synergy between paclitaxel plus an exogenous methyl donor in the suppression of murine demyelinating diseases. 17548438

    Progressive demyelination in multiple sclerosis (MS) reflects the negative balance between myelin damage and repair due to physical and molecular barriers, such as astrocytic glial scars, between oligodendrocytes and target neurons. In this paper, we show that combination therapy with paclitaxel (Taxol) plus the universal methyl-donor, vitamin B12CN (B12CN), dramatically limits progressive demyelination, and enhances remyelination in several independent, immune and nonimmune, in vivo and in vitro model systems. Combination therapy significantly reduced clinical signs of EAE in SJL mice, as well as the spontaneously demyelinating ND4 transgenic mouse. Astrocytosis was normalised in parallel to ultrastructural and biochemical evidence of remyelination. The combination therapy suppressed T cell expansion, reduced IFN-gamma, while enhancing IFN-beta and STAT-1 expression, STAT-1 phosphorylation and methylation of STAT-1 and MBP in the brain. Paclitaxel/B12CN has nearly identical effects to the previously described combination of IFN-beta/ B12CN, whose clinical usefulness is transient because of IFN-neutralising antibodies, not observed (or expected) with the present drug combination. This report provides a mechanistic foundation for the development of a new therapeutic strategy in humans with MS.

  • Synergy of p53 and Rb deficiency in a conditional mouse model for metastatic prostate cancer. 16912162

    Pathways mediated by p53 and Rb are frequently altered in aggressive human cancers, including prostate carcinoma. To test directly the roles of p53 and Rb in prostate carcinogenesis, we have conditionally inactivated these genes in the prostate epithelium of the mouse. Inactivation of either p53 or Rb leads to prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia developing from the luminal epithelium by 600 days of age. In contrast, inactivation of both genes results in rapidly developing (median survival, 226 days) carcinomas showing both luminal epithelial and neuroendocrine differentiation. The resulting neoplasms are highly metastatic, resistant to androgen depletion from the early stage of development, and marked with multiple gene expression signatures commonly found in human prostate carcinomas. Interestingly, gains at 4qC3 and 4qD2.2 and loss at 14qA2-qD2 have been consistently found by comparative genomic hybridization. These loci contain such human cancer-related genes as Nfib, L-myc, and Nkx3.1, respectively. Our studies show a critical role for p53 and Rb deficiency in prostate carcinogenesis and identify likely secondary genetic alterations. The new genetically defined model should be particularly valuable for providing new molecular insights into the pathogenesis of human prostate cancer.

  • Synergy of Eed and Tsix in the repression of Xist gene and X-chromosome inactivation. 18511907

    X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) depends on the noncoding Xist gene. Xist transcription is negatively regulated by its antisense partner Tsix, whose disruption results in nonrandom XCI in females. However, males can maintain Xist in a repressed state without Tsix, indicating participation of additional factor(s) in the protection of the single male X from inactivation. Here, we provide evidence that the histone methyltransferase Eed is also involved in the process. Male embryonic stem cells with Eed-null and Tsix mutations (X(Delta)Y Eed-/-) showed Xist hyperactivation upon differentiation, whereas cells with either mutation alone did not. Impaired X-linked gene expression was observed in the X(Delta)Y Eed-/- ES cells at the onset of differentiation. The Xist promoter in the X(Delta)Y Eed-/- cells showed elevated histone H3-dimethyl lysine 4 modifications and lowered CpG methylation, which are characteristics of open chromatin. Hence, we identified Eed as an additional major player in the regulation of Xist expression. The synergy of Polycomb group proteins and antisense Tsix transcription in Xist gene regulation explains why males can repress Xist without Tsix.

  • Epigenetic synergy between decitabine and platinum derivatives. 26366234

    Aberrant epigenetic silencing of tumor suppressor genes has been recognized as a driving force in cancer. Epigenetic drugs such as the DNA methylation inhibitor decitabine reactivate genes and are effective in myeloid leukemia, but resistance often develops and efficacy in solid tumors is limited. To improve their clinical efficacy, we searched among approved anti-cancer drugs for an epigenetic synergistic combination with decitabine.We used the YB5 cell line, a clonal derivative of the SW48 colon cancer cell line that contains a single copy of a hypermethylated cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter driving green fluorescent protein (GFP) to screen for drug-induced gene reactivation and synergy with decitabine. None of the 16 anti-cancer drugs tested had effects on their own. However, in combination with decitabine, platinum compounds showed striking synergy in activating GFP. This was dose dependent, observed both in concurrent and sequential combinations, and also seen with other alkylating agents. Clinically achievable concentrations of carboplatin at (25 μM) and decitabine reactivated GFP in 28 % of the YB5 cells as compared to 15 % with decitabine alone. Epigenetic synergy was also seen at endogenously hypermethylated tumor suppressor genes such as MLH1 and PDLIM4. Genome-wide studies showed that reactivation of hypermethylated genes by the combination was significantly better than that induced by decitabine alone or carboplatin alone. Platinum compounds did not enhance decitabine-induced hypomethylation. Rather, we found significantly inhibited HP1α expression by carboplatin and the combination. This was accompanied by increased histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) trimethylation and histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) acetylation at reactivated genes (P less than  0.0001) and reduced occupancy by methyl-binding proteins including MeCP2 and methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 2 (MBD2) (P less than  0.0001).Our results suggest that the combination of decitabine with platinum analogs shows epigenetic synergy that might be exploited in the treatment of different cancers.

  • Bid mediates apoptotic synergy between tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and DNA damage. 15615731

    The death ligand, TRAIL (tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand), has shown great promise for inducing apoptosis selectively in tumors. Although many tumor cells are resistant to TRAIL-induced apoptosis alone, they can often be sensitized by co-treatment with DNA-damaging agents such as etoposide. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this therapeutically important synergy is unknown. We explored the mechanism mediating TRAIL-DNA damage apoptotic synergy in human mesothelioma cells, a tumor type particularly refractory to existing therapies. We show that Bid, a cytoplasmic Bcl-2 homology domain 3-containing protein activated by caspase 8 in response to TRAIL ligation, is essential for TRAIL-etoposide apo-ptotic synergy and, furthermore, that exposure to DNA damage primes cells to induction of apoptosis by otherwise sublethal levels of activated Bid. Finally, we show that the extensive caspase 8 cleavage seen during TRAIL-etoposide synergy is a consequence and not a cause of the apoptotic cascade activated downstream of Bid. These data indicate that TRAIL-etoposide apoptotic synergy arises because DNA damage increases the inherent sensitivity of cells to levels of TRAIL-activated Bid that would otherwise be insufficient for apoptosis. Such studies indicate how the adroit combination of differing proapoptotic and sublethal signals can provide an effective strategy for treating refractory tumors.
