Cím:Regression of rat Dunning R-3327-H prostate carcinoma by treatment with targeted cytotoxic analog of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone AN-207 containing 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin / Andreas Jungwirth, Andrew V. Schally, Attila Nagy, Jacek Pinski, Kate Groot, Georg Galvan, Karoly Szepeshazi, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:1997
Megjegyzések:The effects of AN-207, a new targeted cytotoxic analog of LH-RH, were evalued in rats bearing hormone-dependent Dunning R-3327-H prostate carcinomas. AN-207 consists of the agonist [D-Lys(6)]LH-RH linked to 2-pyrrolino-doxorubicin, an intensely potent derivative of doxorubicin. In the first experiment, 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin was administered at a concentration of 50 nmol/kg, as a single drug (AN-201) and as an unconjugated mixture with [D-Lys(6)]LH-RH or conjugated to the carrier [D-Lys(6)]LH-RH (AN-207). Following the second administration of radical AN-201 alone or mixed with the carrier, all rats died with signs of general toxicity, but all animals treated with the conjugate AN-207, survived. After 5 weeks of treatment with a total dose of 150 nmol/kg AN-207, the tumors regressed from an initial volume of 8.35 +/- 1.7 cm(3) to 4.47 +/- 0.8 cm(3), while tumors in the control group measured 17.84 +/- 2.2 cm(3). The therapy with AN-207 also significantly reduced tumor weight and tumor burden. In the second experiment, we compared the efficacy and toxicity of 3 injections of 25 nmol/kg AN-201 or 25 nmol/kg and 50 nmol/kg AN-207. The initial tumor volume in all groups was between 3.9 and 4.5 cm(3). After 5 weeks of therapy, the tumors of rats treated with 50 nmol/kg AN-207 regressed to 2.3 +/- 0.51 cm(3), whereas 25 nmol/kg AN-201 was still toxic in contrast to 25 nmol/kg AN-207, while the reduction in final tumor volume was similar (6.76 +/- 1.4 cm(3) and 6.74 +/- 1 cm(3), respectively), as compared to 15.6 +/- 2.2 cm(3) for untreated animals. High capacity LH-RH receptors were found in the membranes of untreated Dunning tumor specimens, but after treatment with AN-207, they could no longer be detected. This is the first demonstration that the new targeted cytotoxic LH-RH analog AN-207 is an effective antitumor agent. Our work indicates that the cytotoxic analog AN-207 is much less toxic than the antineoplastic radical (AN-201) incorporated, and significantly more active in inhibiting tumor growth. Further development of approaches based on targeted cytotoxic analog AN-207 may lead to major improvements in current palliative therapy of prostate cancer.

Cím:Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone antagonist Cetrorelix (SB-75) and bombesin antagonist RC-3940-II inhibit the growth of androgen-independent PC-3 prostate cancer in nude mice / Andreas Jungwirth, Georg Galvan, Jacek Pinski, Gabor Halmos, Karoly Szepeshazi, Ren-Zhi Cai, Kate Groot, Andrew V. Schally
Dátum:1997
ISSN:0270-4137
Megjegyzések:BACKGROUND: Hormones like bombesin (BN)/gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) and luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) and growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) might be involved in the relapse of prostate cancer under androgen ablation therapy. Interference with receptors for BN/GRP, LH-RH, or EGF might provide a therapeutic approach to inhibit tumor growth of androgen-independent prostate cancer. METHODS: LH-RH antagonist Cetrorelix (SB-75) and the BN/GRP antagonist RC-3940-II were tested for their effects on the growth of the androgen-independent PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line xenografted into nude mice. Tumor growth, serum hormone levels, and receptor concentrations for BN/GRP and EGF were measured. RESULTS: When the treatment was started, tumor volume in all groups was 70-80 mm3. After 4 weeks, tumor volume in the control animals injected with saline was 871 +/- 233 mm3 and that of animals treated with Cetrorelix only 197 +/- 61 mm3. The BN/GRP antagonist RC-3940-II also significantly reduced PC-3 tumor volume in nude mice to 122 +/- 20 mm3. The combination of Cetrorelix and RC-3940-II produced no additional inhibition. High-affinity receptors for EGF were detected in the tumor membranes and their number was significantly decreased after administration of Cetrorelix or RC-3940-II. CONCLUSIONS: These findings demonstrate that LH-RH antagonists and BN/GRP antagonists inhibit the growth of the androgen-independent prostate cancer cell line PC-3 in vivo. Both analogs may exert a direct inhibitory effect on tumor growth through a down-regulation of EGF receptors.

Cím:Inhibition of growth of androgen-independent DU-145 prostate cancer in vivo by luteinising hormone-releasing hormone antagonist Cetrorelix and bombesin antagonists RC-3940-II and RC-3950-II / A. Jungwirth, J. Pinski, G. Galvan, G. Halmos, K. Szepeshazi, R. Z. Cai, K. Groot, M. Vadillo-Buenfil, A. V. Schally

Megjegyzések:The aim of this study was to test the antagonist of LH-RH (Cetrorelix), agonist [D-Trp6]LH-RH (triptorelin) and new bombesin antagonists RC-3940-II and RC-3950-II for their effect on the growth of an androgen-independent prostate cancer cell line, DU-145, xenografted into nude mice. Xenografts were grown in male nude mice, and after 4 weeks, the animals were treated either with saline (control) or with one of the analogues. One group of mice was given a combination of Cetrorelix and RC-3950-II. Treatment was given for 4 weeks. Tumour and body weights, and tumour volumes were measured. At sacrifice, tumours were dissected for histological examination and receptor studies. Serum was collected for measurement of hormone levels. The final tumour volume in control animals injected with saline was 577 +/- 155 mm3 and that of animals treated with Cetrorelix only 121.4 +/- 45 mm3 (P < 0.01). Bombesin antagonists RC-3940-II and RC-3950-II also significantly reduced DU-145 tumour volume in nude mice to 84.9 +/- 19.9 and 96.8 +/- 28 mm3, respectively. Agonist [D-Trp6]LH-RH did not significantly inhibit tumour growth. Serum levels of LH were decreased to 0.08 +/- 0.02 ng/ml (P < 0.05) in the Cetrorelix treated group as compared to 1.02 +/- 0.1 ng/ml for the controls, and testosterone levels were reduced to castration levels (0.01 +/- 0.01 ng/ml). Specific receptors for EGF and LH-RH in DU-145 tumours were significantly downregulated after treatment with Cetrorelix, RC-3940-II and RC-3950-II. Although LH-RH could be a local regulator of growth of prostate cancer, the fall in LH-RH receptors is not fully understood and the inhibitory effects of Cetrorelix and bombesin antagonists on DU-145 tumour growth might be attributed at least in part to a downregulation of EHF receptors. Since Cetrorelix and bombesin antagonists inhibit growth of androgen-independent DU-145 prostate cancers, these compounds could be considered for the therapy of advanced prostate cancer in men, especially after relapse.

Cím:Growth hormone-releasing hormone antagonist MZ-4-71 inhibits in vivo proliferation of Caki-I renal adenocarcinoma / Andreas Jungwirth, Andrew V. Schally, Jacek Pinski, Kate Groot, Patricia Armatis, Gabor Halmos
Dátum:1997
ISSN:0027-8424
Megjegyzések:In view of evidence that growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factors (IGF) may play a role in the development of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), we investigated the effects of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) antagonist MZ-4-71 on the proliferation of the human renal adenocarcinoma cell line Caki-I in vitro and in vivo. Male nude mice bearing xenografts of human Caki-I RCC were treated for 4 weeks with MZ-4-71 injected s.c. twice daily at a dose of 20 mu g per animal, Tumor growth, serum, liver, and tumor IGF levels and IGF-I receptor concentrations in Caki-I cell membranes were measured. After 4 weeks of therapy, the final volume of Caki-I tumors in nude mice treated with MZ-4-71 was significantly (P < 0.01) decreased to 52.6 +/- 12.3 mm(3) as compared with controls that measured 504.2 +/- 104.1 mm(3), Treatment with GH-RH antagonist also significantly reduced tumor weight, serum levels of GH and IGF-I, liver concentrations of IGF-I, and tumor levels of IGF-I and IGF-II, High-affinity binding sites for IGF-I were detected in the cell membranes of Caki-I tumors, IGF-I and IGF-II stimulated the proliferation of Caki-I cells in tissue cultures, Antagonist MZ-4-71 could inhibit in vitro growth of Caki-I cells, but only at high concentrations, Our findings demonstrate that GH-RH antagonist MZ-4-71 can significantly inhibit the growth of Caki-I RCC, MZ-4-71 may exert its suppressive effect on tumor growth through a reduction in GH release from the pituitary and the subsequent decrease in the production of IGF-I in the liver and IGF-I and II by the tumors, The efficacy of MZ-4-71 suggests that this compound could be considered for the therapy of recurrent or metastatic RCC.

Cím:Inhibition of the growth of Caki-I human renal adenocarcinoma in vivo by luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone antagonist Cetrorelix, somatostatin analog RC-160, and bombesin antagonist RC-3940-II / Andreas Jungwirth, Andrew V.

Megjegyzések:BACKGROUND: Metastatic or recurrent renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a therapeutic challenge because it is resistant to chemotherapy and external radiotherapy. No uniformly effective therapeutic agents are available for the management of patients with RCC. Hormones and growth factors may play a role in promoting the transformation and/or proliferation of kidney neoplasms. METHODS: Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) antagonist Cetrorelix (SB-75), somatostatin analog RC-160, and bombesin antagonist RC-3940-II were tested for their effects on the growth of the Caki-I renal adenocarcinoma cell line xenografted into nude mice. RESULTS: After 4 weeks of treatment, tumor volume was significantly (P < 0.01) decreased in animals receiving RC-160, to 167.5 +/- 34.2 mm3, compared with the control group (485.7 +/- 77.2 mm3). LH-RH antagonist SB-75 and bombesin antagonist RC-3940-II also significantly reduced the volume of Caki-I tumors, to 159.9 +/- 18.1 and 234.7 +/- 81.8 mm3, respectively. Somatostatin analog RC-160 decreased serum levels for growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I compared with controls. Treatment with RC-160, Cetrorelix, and RC-3940-II significantly reduced the number of high-affinity receptors for epidermal growth factor on Caki-I tumors. CONCLUSIONS: LH-RH antagonist Cetrorelix, somatostatin analog RC-160, and bombesin antagonist RC-3940-II effectively inhibit the growth of human Caki-I renal adenocarcinomas in nude mice. These peptide analogs should be considered for the therapy of patients with metastatic or recurrent RCC.

Cím:Decrease in the level and mRNA expression of LH-RH and EGF receptors after treatment with LH-RH antagonist cetrorelix in DU-145 prostate tumor xenografts in nude mice / Najib Lamharzi, Gábor Halmos, Andreas Jungwirth, Andrew V. Schally
Dátum:1998
Megjegyzések:Using radioligand binding, RT-PCR, and Southern blot analyses, we evaluated whether agonist [D-Trp6]LH-RH and antagonist Cetrorelix could affect the levels of receptors for LH-RH and EGF and expression of mRNA for these receptors in DU-145 human androgen-independent prostate cancers xenografted into nude mice. Radioligand binding studies showed the presence of specific high affinity receptors for LH-RH and EGF in DU-145 prostate tumors. Cetrorelix, but not [D-Trp6]LH-RH significantly inhibited tumor growth. The concentration of LH-RH receptors was reduced by 22% (p<0. 05) and 67% (p<0.01) after 4 weeks of treatment with [D-Trp6]LH-RH and Cetrorelix respectively. The concentration of EGF receptors fell by 48% (p<0.05) in the [D-Trp6]LH-RH group, whereas Cetrorelix led to a 66% reduction (p<0.01). The expression of LH-RH and EGF receptor mRNA was investigated by RT-PCR analysis followed by Southern blotting. Densitometric analysis of the developed bands showed that the antagonist Cetrorelix decreased the expression of LH-RH receptor mRNA by 55% (p<0.01) compared to control group while the 20% reduction after treatment with the LH-RH agonist was non-significant. Treatment with [D-Trp6]LH-RH and Cetrorelix also reduced the expression of EGF receptor mRNA by 35% and 68% respectively (both, p<0.01) compared to control group. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that growth inhibition of DU-145 prostate tumors induced by prolonged administration of LH-RH antagonist Cetrorelix is accompanied by a marked decrease in the concentration of LH-RH and EGF receptors as well as in their mRNA levels.

Cím:Cytotoxic analogs of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone containing doxorubicin or 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin, a derivative 500-1000 times more potent / Attila Nagy, Andrew V. Schally, Patricia Armatis, Karoly Szepeshazi, Gabor Halmos, Magdolna Kovacs, Marta Zarandi, Kate Groot, Masahiro Miyazaki, Andreas Jungwirth, Judit Horvath

ISSN:0027-8424
Megjegyzések:Doxorubicin (DOX) and its daunosamine-modified derivative, 2-pyrrolino-DOX, which is 500-1000 times more active than DOX, were incorporated into agonistic and antagonistic analogs of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH), The conjugation of DOX with LH-RH analogs was performed by using N-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-DOX-14-O-hemiglutarate, a dicarboxylic acid ester derivative of DOX, Coupling this derivative covalently to the E-amino group of the D-Lys side chain of agonist [D-Lys(6)]LH-RH or antagonistic analog Ac-D-Nal(2)-D-Phe(4Cl)-D-Pal(3)-Ser-Tyr-D-Lys-Leu-Arg-Pro-D-Ala-NH2 [where Nal(2) = 3-(2-naphthyl)alanine, Pal(3) = 3-(3-pyridyl)alanine, and Phe(4Cl) = 4-chlorophenylalanine] was followed by the removal of the 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl protective group to yield cytotoxic derivatives of LH-RH analogs containing DOX, From these DOX containing LH-RH hybrids, intensely potent analogs with daunosamine-modified derivatives of DOX can be readily formed. Thus, cytotoxic LH-RH agonist containing DOX (AN-152) can be converted in a 66% yield by a reaction with a 30-fold excess of 4-iodobutyraldehyde in N,N-dimethylformamide into a derivative having 2-pyrrolino-DOX (AN-207). Hybrid molecules AN-152 and AN-207 fully preserve the cytotoxic activity of their radicals, DOX or 2-pyrrolino-DOX, respectively, in vitro, and also retain the high binding affinity of the peptide hormone portion of the conjugates to rat pituitary receptors for LH-RH, These highly potent cytotoxic analogs of LH-RH were designed as targeted anti-cancer agents for the treatment of various tumors that possess receptors for the carrier peptide, Initial in vivo studies show that the hybrid molecules are much less toxic than the respective cytotoxic radicals incorporated and significantly more active in inhibiting tumor growth.

Cím:Chronic administration of the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) antagonist cetrorelix decreases gonadotrope responsiveness and pituitary LHRH receptor messenger ribonucleic acid levels in rats / Jacek Pinski, Najib Lamharzi, Gábor Halmos, Kate Groot, Andreas Jungwirth, Manuel Vadillo-Buenfil, Sham S. Kakar, Andrew V. Schally

Megjegyzések:Continuous exposure to LHRH or its agonistic analogs results in a reduction of LHRH receptor sites and messenger RNA (mRNA) transcripts as well as in desensitization of the pituitary gonadotropes. To determine, whether LHRH antagonists might be similar in this respect to the agonists, we treated male rats for 4 weeks with daily sc injections of LHRH antagonist [Ac-D-Nal2,Phe(4Cl)2,D-Pal(3)3, D-Cit6,D-Ala10]LHRH (Cetrorelix acetate) or LHRH agonist, [D-Trp6]LHRH, in doses of 100 micrograms/animal-day. Another group of rats received a single im injection of 4.5 mg Cetrorelix pamoate depot, a sustained delivery formulation of the LHRH antagonist. An iv stimulation test with LHRH (200 ng/rat) was performed after 4 weeks of treatment. The rats were killed, and pituitary LHRH receptor characteristics were measured by RRA. To examine the effect of LHRH antagonist treatment on the expression of the pituitary LHRH receptor gene, some of the rats injected with Cetrorelix pamoate depot were killed after 2 weeks, and levels of LHRH receptor mRNA were determined by Northern blot and dot blot hybridization to a 32P-labeled rat complementary DNA probe. Our data show that LHRH-stimulated LH secretion at 30 min was suppressed by approximately 33% (P < 0.01) in rats pretreated with [D-Trp6]LHRH compared to that in animals injected with LHRH alone. Pretreatment of the rats with the LHRH antagonist suppressed the LH response to LHRH more markedly, the LH levels at 30 min were decreased by 89.8% and 96% in groups treated with Cetrorelix acetate and Cetrorelix pamoate depot, respectively. The testosterone response was virtually abolished in groups receiving Cetrorelix. The concentration of pituitary receptors for LHRH fell by 69% in the [D-Trp6]LHRH group, whereas the reductions in the Cetrorelix acetate group and in the group that received Cetrorelix pamoate depot were 77% and 82%, respectively. Treatment with Cetrorelix pamoate depot led to a 75-80% decrease in the levels of 5.0- and 4.5-kilobase forms of LHRH receptor mRNA compared to those in the control group. Dot blot analysis also showed 83% reduction in the mRNA for LHRH receptor. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that prolonged administration of LHRH antagonists such as Cetrorelix causes an impairment of gonadotropin secretion and a marked decrease in the levels of LHRH receptors as well as in the expression of the LHRH receptor gene. Thus, the down-regulation of pituitary LHRH receptors produced by LHRH antagonists appears to be similar to that resulting from the agonists.

Cím:Inhibition of growth of human small cell and non-small cell lung carcinomas by antagonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GH-RH) / Jacek Pinski, Andrew V. Schally, Andreas Jungwirth, Kate Groot, Gábor Halmos, Patricia Armatis, Márta Zarandi, Manuel Vadillo-Buenfil
Dátum:1996
Megjegyzések:Insulin-like growth factors-I and-II (IGF-I and IGF-II) may be involved in the proliferation of human lung carcinomas. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of two potent antagonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GH-RH), MZ-4-71 and MZ-5-156 on the growth of the H69 human small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and H157 non-SCLC (NSCLC) lines transplanted into nude mice or cultured in vitro. Nude mice bearing H69 and H157 tumors were treated for 3-5 weeks with MZ-4-71 or MZ-5-156 injected s.c. twice a day at a dose of 20 mu g/animal. Growth of H69 and H157 tumors in nude mice was significantly inhibited by MZ-4-71 and MZ-5-156 as shown by a reduction in tumor volume and weight. In animals bearing H157 NSCLC, treatment with MZ-4-71 decreased IGF-I and IGF-II levels in tumor tissue. Levels of IGF-I, but not of IGF-II in serum and liver tissue of H157 tumor-bearing nude mice treated with MZ-4-71 were decreased. High affinity binding sites for ICF-I were demonstrated on membranes of H69 and H157 tumors. In cell cultures, the proliferation rate of H69 SCLC cells was suppressed by 10(-7)-10(-5) M MZ-4-71, but H157 NSCLC line was only inhibited by 10(-5) M antagonist. Our findings demonstrate that the GHRH antagonists MZ-4-71 and MZ-5-156 can inhibit the growth of SCLC and NSCLC. This new approach to the management of lung cancer merits further investigation.
