Megjegyzések:Targeting of cytotoxic agents represents a modern approach to the treatment of various cancers, that improves the efficacy and reduces peripheral toxicity. Recently we developed a powerful cytotoxic analog of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH), AN-207, designed to be targeted to tumors that express LHRH receptors. This analog consists of the superactive derivative of doxorubicin (DOX), 2-pyrrolino-DOX (AN-201), linked to [D-Lys6]LHRH carrier. In the present study we investigated the cytocidal effects of AN-207 and AN-201 on the LHRH receptor-positive ES-2 ovarian cancer cells. The targeting of AN-207 to ES-2 cells in the presence of LHRH receptor-negative UCI-107 ovarian cancer cells was also evaluated by semi-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of microsatellite markers. Ligand competition assays showed a single class of high-affinity and low-capacity binding sites in ES-2 cells with a mean dissociation constant (KD) of 3.93 +/- 0.1 nM and a mean maximal binding capacity (Bmax) of 271 +/- 26.1 fmol/mg membrane protein. Kinetic assays indicated that AN-207 caused cell death in a concentration- and time-dependent manner in ES-2 cells, but not in UCI-107 cells, while the kinetics of cytotoxic effects of AN-201 were similar in both cell lines. To investigate targeting, ES-2 cells were co-cultured with UCI-107 cells, treated with 10 nM AN-207 or AN-201 for different times and then cultured for 48 h in the absence of cytotoxic agents. Genomic DNA was extracted for microsatellite analyses using different markers. Semi-quantitative analyses of the intensity of the alleles that correspond to each cell line indicated that AN-207 was selectively targeted to ES-2 cells, while AN-201 showed no selectivity for either cell line. These results extend our previous findings that AN-207 can be targeted to ovarian cancers and other tumors that express receptors for LHRH. Cytotoxic analogs of LHRH, such as AN-207, should be considered for treatment of LHRH receptor-positive tumors.

Cím:A targeted cytotoxic somatostatin (SST) analogue, AN-238, inhibits the growth of H-69 small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and H-157 non-SCLC in nude mice / H. Kiaris, A. V. Schally, A. Nagy, K. Szepeshazi, F. Hebert, G. Halmos
Dátum:2001
ISSN:0959-8049
Megjegyzések:Recently. we developed a cytotoxic analogue of somatostatin (SST), AN-238, in which the SST carrier peptide RC-121 was linked to 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (2-pyrrolino-DOX) (AN-201), a potent derivative of doxorubicin. AN-238 can be targeted to SST receptors (SSTRs) on tumours. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of AN-238 on the growth of H-69 small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and H-157 non-SCLC xenografted into nude mice. High affinity binding sites for SST are present in H-69 SCLC and were now detected in H-157 non-SCLC xenografts, but not in H-157 cells. A strong expression of the human SSTR subtype 2 (hSSTR-2) and a weaker expression of subtype 5 (hSSTR-5) was found in H-69 SCLC cells, but not in H-157 non-SCLC cells. However, a strong expression of mRNA for mouse (m)SSTR-2 could be detected in H-157 xenografts. AN-238 effectively inhibited the growth of H-69 SCLC tumours in nude mice. Twenty-six days after a single injection of AN-238 at 200 nmol/kg. the volume of H-69 rumours was decreased by approximately 55% (P < 0.05) compared with the controls, while AN-201 at the same dose was highly toxic and produced only a minor tumour inhibition. To evaluate the potency of multiple doses of AN-238, nude mice bearing H-69 SCLC received three injections of AN-238 at 150 nmol/kg on days 1, 12 and 28. In the period of 42 days after the first injection, the growth rate of H-69 tumours was approximately 50% lower than that of controls. In nude mice bearing H-157 non-SCLC tumours. a single i.v. administration of AN-238 at 200 nmol/kg inhibited tumour volume by 91% after 28 days (P < 0.01 compared with controls). AN-201 was toxic and ineffective at the same dose. Two injections of AN-238 at 150 nmol/kg given on days 1 and 18 produced 83% inhibition of H-157 tumour growth (P < 0.01 versus controls). AN-238 given as a single dose of 200 nmol/kg induced necrosis. while two injections of 150 nmol/kg induced apoptosis in the tumour tissue. Our results indicate that targeted cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238 could he considered for therapy of both SCLC and non-SCLC.

Cím:Expression of a splice variant of the receptor for GHRH in 3T3 fibroblasts activates cell proliferation responses to GHRH analogs / Hippokratis Kiaris, Andrew V. Schally, Rebeca Busto, Gabor Halmos, Spyros Artavanis-Tsakonas, Jozsef L. Varga
Dátum:2002

Megjegyzések:The stimulatory effects of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) and the antiproliferative action of GHRH antagonists have been demonstrated in various cancers, but the receptors that mediate these responses are not clearly identified. Recently, we reported that human cancer cell lines express splice variants (SVs) of the receptors for GHRH. SV1 exhibits the greatest similarity to the pituitary GHRH receptor and is most likely to be functional. To ascertain whether SV1 mediates mitogenic effects on nonpituitary tissues, we expressed SV1 in 3T3 mouse fibroblasts and studied the properties of the transfected cells. Radioligand binding assays with I-125-labeled GHRH antagonist JV-1-42 detected high affinity (K-d = 0.58 +/- 0.17 nM) binding sites for GHRH with a maximal binding capacity (B-max) of 103 +/- 17.4 fmol/mg of membrane protein in 3T3 cells transfected with pcDNA3-SV1, whereas the control cells transfected with the empty vector did not show any GHRH binding. Cell proliferation studies showed that cells expressing SV1 are much more sensitive to GHRH analogs than the pcDNA3 controls. Thus, the expression of SV1 augments the stimulatory responses to GHRH(1-29)NH2 or GHRH agonist JI-38 and inhibitory responses to GHRH antagonist JV-1-38 as compared with pcDNA3 controls. The stimulation of SV1-expressing cells by GHRIH or JI-38 is followed by an increase in cAMP production, but no GH release occurs. Vasoactive intestinal peptide had no effect, and its antagonist JV-1-53 did not inhibit the proliferation of SV1-expressing cells stimulated by GHRH. Our results suggest that SV1 could mediate responses of nonpituitary cells and various tumors to GHRH and GHRIH antagonists. The presence of SV1 in several human cancer cell lines provides a rationale for antitumor therapy based on the blockade of this receptor by specific GHRH antagonists.

Cím:Regression of U-87 MG human glioblastomas in nude mice after treatment with a cytotoxic somatostatin analog AN-238 / Hippokratis Kiaris, Andrew V. Schally, Attila Nagy, Baodong Sun, Karoly Szepeshazi, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:2000
Megjegyzések:Receptors for somatostatin (SST) found on brain tumors could be used for targeting of chemotherapeutic agents. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of targeted cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238, consisting of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201), a potent derivative of doxorubicin (DOX) linked to somatostatin analogue RC-121, on the growth of SST receptor-positive U-87 MG human glioblastomas. Nude mice bearing U-87 MG xenografts received i.v. saline or equimolar doses of AN-238 or AN-201 (150 nmol/kg). Experiments also included groups that were administered RC-121 prior to the injection of AN-238, and groups injected with AN-162, a cytotoxic SST analogue similar to AN-238 but containing DOX instead of AN-201. Tumor volume, weight, and burden were determined. The effect of AN-238 and AN-201 on the survival time of nude mice bearing orthotopically implanted U-87 MG tumors was also evaluated. The binding of AN-238 to U-87 MG tumors was determined by radioreceptor assay and SST receptor (SSTR) subtype by reverse transcription-PCR. Nineteen days after a single administration of AN-238 the growth of U-87 MG tumors in nude mice was significantly inhibited (P = 0.00168), whereas two injections of AN-238 produced the regression of tumors (P = 0.0046). AN-201 was toxic and ineffective at the same dose. The antitumor effect on AN-238 could be blocked by pretreatment of the tumor-bearing mice with RC-121. The mean survival time of nude mice inoculated orthotopically with U-87 MG cells into the brain was significantly prolonged by treatment with AN-238 (P = 0.0099). AN-162 failed to inhibit significantly the growth of U-87 MG xenografts. High affinity binding sites for SST and mRNA for SST-2 receptor subtype were detected in U-87 MG tumors. Cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238 can be targeted to SST receptors on U-87 MG human glioblastomas to produce powerful inhibition of growth.

Cím:Ligand-dependent and -independent effects of splice variant 1 of growth hormone-releasing hormone receptor / Hippokratis Kiaris, Ioulia Chatzistamou, Andrew V. Schally, Gabor Halmos, Jozsef L. Varga, Helen Koutselini, Anastasios Kalofoutis
Dátum:2003

Megjegyzések:Existing evidence indicates that, in addition to its neuroendocrine action, growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) acts directly on several nonpituitary tissues, especially neoplasms, and stimulates cell proliferation. We have recently reported that a splice variant of the receptor (SV1) is expressed in various normal tissues and particularly in tumor tissues, producing mitogenic effects on GHRH binding. By using HEC-1A human endometrial carcinoma cells, which express endogenous SV1, we show that, in addition to its ability to mediate the mitogenic effects of GHRH, SV1 also possesses relatively high intrinsic, ligand-independent activity. By using an antisense RNA-based approach we found that SV1 ablation reduces the efficacy of colony formation and the rate of cell proliferation of HEC-1A cells in the absence of exogenous GHRH, and decreases their sensitivity to GHRH when the neurohormone is added to the culture media. This ligand-independent stimulation of cell proliferation appears to be a characteristic property of the truncated form of the receptor, because the expression of SV1 and not of the full-length GHRH receptor stimulated the proliferation of 3T3 fibroblasts in the absence of exogenous GHRH, whereas both forms mediated the proliferative effects of GHRH. Evaluation of 21 specimens of human primary endometrial carcinoma for expression of SV1 by immunohistochemistry indicated that in contrast to the GHRH receptor, which is absent, SV1 is expressed in approximate to43% of the specimens. These findings indicate that SV1 can operate in a ligand-independent as well as a ligand-dependent manner. The overexpression of this form of GHRH receptor may be associated with carcinogenesis.

Cím:Inhibition of metastatic renal cell carcinomas expressing somatostatin receptors by a targeted cytotoxic analogue of somatostatin AN-238 / Artur Plonowski, Andrew V. Schally, Attila Nagy, Hippokratis Kiaris, Francine Hebert, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:2000
Megjegyzések:The effectiveness of chemotherapy targeted to somatostatin (SST) receptors based on cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238, consisting of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201) linked to SST carrier octapeptide, was investigated in human renal cell carcinomas (RCCs). SST receptors, which showed high-affinity binding for AN-238, were found in the SW-839 RCC line with sst2A subtype and in the 786-0 RCC line, which expressed the sst5 subtype. CAKI-1 RCC, which does not express sst2A or sst5, was used as a negative control for testing the specificity of SST receptor targeting. Using microsatellite analysis, AN-238 was shown to selectively inhibit the proliferation of 786-0 line, but not the CAKI-1 RCC line in vitro. The effects of three i.v. injections of 150 nmol/kg of AN-238 or AN-201, given on days 1, 8, and 21, were evaluated in groups of nude mice bearing s.c. xenografts of SW-839 and 786-0 RCC. After 5 weeks, the volumes of SW-839 and 786-0 RCC tumors were decreased by 67.2 (P < 0.05) and 78.3% (P < 0.01), respectively, whereas AN-201 had no significant effect on tumor growth. The inhibition of SST receptor-negative CAKI-1 tumors by AN-238 was only marginal. To investigate the efficacy of SST receptor-targeted chemotherapy in metastatic RCC, three i.v. injections of AN-238 or AN-201 at 150 nmol/kg were given at biweekly intervals to nude mice implanted with 786-0 tumors under the renal capsule. After 6 weeks, the weight of orthotopic tumors treated with AN-238 (55.3 +/- 44.3 mg) was significantly lower (87% reduction; P < 0.001) than that in the control group (414.2 +/- 41.0 mg) or in animals given AN-201 (270.2 +/- 603 mg; P < 0.05). Five of six animals (83%), both in the control and the AN-201 group, developed metastases to lymph nodes, but only one of seven mice (14%) given AN-238 showed lymphatic spread. Lung metastases were found in 83% of controls and 50% of AN-201 treated animals, but none occurred in mice treated with AN-238. This study demonstrates that targeted cytotoxic SST analogue AN-238 provides an effective therapy for chemoresistant neoplasms such as RCC. Because most clinical RCCs express SST receptors, this treatment modality might be beneficial to patients with metastatic disease.

Cím:Targeted cytotoxic somatostatin analogue AN-238 inhibits somatostatin receptor-positive experimental colon cancers independently of their p53 status / Karoly Szepeshazi, Andrew V. Schally, Gabor Halmos, Patricia Armatis, Francine Hebert, Baodong Sun, Anita Feil, Hippokratis Kiaris, Attila Nagy
Dátum:2002
Megjegyzések:The resistance of advanced colorectal cancers to therapy is often related to mutations in the p53 tumor suppressor gene. Because somatostatin (SRIF) receptors (ssts) are present in colorectal carcinomas, the treatment with targeted cytotoxic SRIF analogue AN-238, consisting of 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201) linked to octapeptide SRIF carrier RC-121, may overcome this resistance by producing a higher concentration of the cytotoxic agent in the tumors. Four colon cancer cell lines, HCT-116 and LoVo expressing wild-type p53, and HCT-15 and HT-29 with mutated p53, were investigated. HCT-116, HCT-15, and HT-29, but not LoVo possess functional ssts. We analyzed changes in p53, p21, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) concentrations in these cells in vitro by immunoblotting after exposure to AN-238, its radical AN-201, or doxorubicin (DOX). Equitoxic doses of AN-238, AN-201, or DOX affected p53, p21, and PCNA differently. Analysis of the p21:p53 ratios revealed that DOX increased p53 levels, but most of p53 was mutated and inactive, whereas AN-238 produced smaller changes in p53 concentrations but enhanced its activity. In HCT-15 cells, PCNA:p21 ratios, which are indicators of proliferation and repair processes, remained unchanged after exposure to AN-238 but were increased by DOX. In vivo studies in nude mice demonstrated that AN-238, AN-201, and DOX were equally effective on HCT-116 tumors that express wild-type p53. However, AN-238 also inhibited the growth of HCT-15 and HT-29 cancers that express mutant p53, whereas AN-201 and DOX showed no effect. None of the compounds could suppress the proliferation of LoVo tumors that lack functional ssts. In conclusion, cytotoxic SRIF analogue AN-238 inhibits the growth of experimental colon cancers that express ssts, regardless of their p53 status.
