Radiosensitization by the investigational NEDD8-activating enzyme inhibitor MLN4924 (pevonedistat) in hormone-resistant prostate cancer cells
Salvage radiotherapy (SRT) is the first-line treatment for prostate cancer patients with biochemical recurrence following radical prostatectomy, and new specific radiosensitizers are in urgent need to enhance SRT effect. MLN4924 (also known as Pevonedistat), a specific inhibitor of NEDD8-activating enzyme, has recently entered phase I/II clinical trials in several malignancies. By inhibiting cu...
متن کاملThe p21-Dependent Radiosensitization of Human Breast Cancer Cells by MLN4924, an Investigational Inhibitor of NEDD8 Activating Enzyme
Radiotherapy is a treatment choice for local control of breast cancer. However, intrinsic radioresistance of cancer cells limits therapeutic efficacy. We have recently validated that SCF (SKP1, Cullins, and F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin ligase is an attractive radiosensitizing target. Here we tested our hypothesis that MLN4924, a newly discovered investigational small molecule inhibitor of NAE (N...
متن کاملTargeting progastrin enhances radiosensitization of colorectal cancer cells
A high percentage of advanced rectal cancers are resistant to radiation. Therefore, increasing the efficacy of radiotherapy by targeting factors involved in radioresistance seems to be an attractive strategy. Here we demonstrated that the pro-hormone progastrin (PG), known to be over-expressed in CRC, and recognized as a pro-oncogenic factor, is a radioresistance factor that can be targeted to ...
متن کاملRadiosensitization by 5-fluorocytosine of human colorectal carcinoma cells in culture transduced with cytosine deaminase gene.
Recently, use of the suicide gene, cytosine deaminase (CD), has shown a selective antitumor activity of 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) on human colorectal carcinoma cells grown in vitro and in vivo. We hypothesized that the radiosensitivity of human colorectal carcinoma cells transduced with a retroviral vector encoding the bacterial CD gene would be selectively enhanced by the nontoxic prodrug 5-FC. ...
متن کاملYeast cytosine deaminase improves radiosensitization and bystander effect by 5-fluorocytosine of human colorectal cancer xenografts.
The efficacy of cancer gene therapy using bacterial cytosine deaminase (bCD)/5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) enzyme/prodrug strategy is limited by the inefficiency of cytosine deaminase (CD)-catalyzed conversion of 5-FC into 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). We have shown previously that yeast CD (yCD) is more efficient at the conversion of 5-FC than bCD. In the current study, we hypothesized that the increased p...
