Cím:Characterization of bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide receptors in membranes of MKN45 human gastric cancer / Gabor Halmos, Jacek Pinski, Balazs Szoke, Andrew V. Schally
Dátum:1994
ISSN:0304-3835
Megjegyzések:Binding of the radiolabeled bombesin analog [125I-Tyr4]bombesin to crude cell membranes of MKN45 human gastric cancer grown in nude mice was investigated in vitro. Scatchard analyses of multipoint binding data, performed by complete displacement method demonstrated the presence of two classes of [Tyr4]bombesin binding sites. The high-affinity binding sites had a mean dissociation constant (Kd1) of 2.75 nM with a mean maximal binding capacity (Bmax1) of 492 fmol/mg membrane protein, while the low-affinity binding sites showed a mean dissociation constant (Kd2) of 0.41 microM with a mean maximal binding capacity (Bmax2) of 41.4 pmol/mg membrane protein. Binding of [125(1)-Tyr4]bombesin was specific, reversible and linearly related to the protein concentration of tumor membrane. In displacement studies, the binding of radiolabeled [Tyr4]bombesin was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by gastrin releasing peptide (GRP)(14-27) and two synthetic antagonists of bombesin/GRP, RC-3095 and RC-3950-II. Both antagonists exhibited high affinity in nearly the same concentration range as GRP(14-27). The presence of receptors for bombesin/GRP on human gastric cancer membranes suggests that bombesin-like peptides may play a role in growth of gastric cancer.

Cím:Down-regulation of pituitary receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) in rats by LH-RH antagonist Cetrorelix / Gabor Halmos, Andrew V. Schally, Jacek Pinski, Manuel Vadillo-Buenfil, Kate Groot
Dátum:1996
ISSN:0027-8424
Megjegyzések:Antagonists of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH), unlike the LH-RH agonists, suppress gonadotropins and sex steroid secretion immediately after administration, without initial stimulatory effects. [Ac-D-Nal(2)1,D-Ph(4Cl)2,D-Pal(3)3,D-Cit6,D-Ala10]LH-R H (SB-75; Cetrorelix) is a modern, potent antagonistic analog of LH-RH. In this study, the binding characteristics of receptors for LH-RH in membrane fractions from rat anterior pituitaries were investigated after a single injection of Cetrorelix at a dose of 100 microg per rat. To determine whether the treatment with Cetrorelix can affect the concentration of measurable LH-RH binding sites, we applied an in vitro method to desaturate LH-RH receptors by chaotropic agents such as manganous chloride (MnCl2) and ammonium thiocyanate (NH4SCN). Our results show that the percentages of occupied LH-RH receptors at 1, 3, and 6 h after administration of Cetrorelix were approximately 28%, 14%, and 10%, respectively, of total receptors. At later time intervals, we could not detect occupied LH-RH binding sites. Ligand competition assays, following in vitro desaturation, demonstrated that rat pituitary LH-RH receptors were significantly (P < 0.01) down-regulated for at least 72 h after administration of Cetrorelix. The lowest receptor concentration was found 3-6 h after Cetrorelix treatment and a recovery in receptor number began within approximately 24 h. The down-regulation of LH-RH binding sites induced by Cetrorelix was accompanied by serum LH and testosterone suppression. Higher LH-RH receptor concentrations coincided with elevated serum hormone levels at later time intervals. Our results indicate that administration of LH-RH antagonist Cetrorelix produces a marked down-regulation of pituitary receptors for LH-RH and not merely an occupancy of binding sites.

Cím:Synthesis and biological evaluation of superactive agonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone / Jan Izdebski, Jacek Pinski, Judit E. Horvath, Gabor Halmos, Kate Groot, Andrew V. Schally
Dátum:1995
ISSN:0027-8424
Megjegyzések:Analogs of the 29 amino acid sequence of human growth hormone-releasing hormone (hGH-RH) with agmatine (Agm) in position 29, desaminotyrosine (Dat) in position 1, norleucine (Nle) in position 27, and L-alpha-aminobutyric acid (Abu) in position 15 have been synthesized, and their biological activity was evaluated. Some peptides contained one or two residues of ornithine (Orn) instead of Lys in positions 12 and 21 and additional replacements in positions 8 and 28. All analogs were found to be more potent than hGH-RH-(1-29)-NH2 in the superfused rat pituitary cell system. In tests in vivo in rats after subcutaneous administration, the analogs JI-22, [Dat(1),Orn(12,21),Abu(15),Nle(27),Agm(29)]hGH-RH-(1-29); JI-34, [Dat(1),Orn(12,21),Abu(15),Nle(27),Asp(28),Agm(29)] hGH-RH-(1-29); JI-36, [Dat(1),Thr(8),Orn(12,21), Abu(15),Nle(27),Asp(28),Agm(29)]hGH-RH-(1-29); and JI-38, [Dat(1),Gln(8),Orn(12,21),Abu(15),Nle(27),Asp(28),Agm(29)] hGH-RH-(1-29) displayed a potency 44.6, 80.9, 95.8, and 71.4 times greater, respectively, than that of hGH-RH-(1-29)-NH2 at 15 min and 217.1, 89.7, 87.9, and 116.8 times greater at 30 min. After intravenous administration, JI-22, JI-36, and JI-38 were 3.2-3.8 times more potent than hGH-RH-(1-29)-NH2 at 5 min and 6.1-8.5 times more active at 15 min. All analogs were found to have higher binding affinities for GH-RH receptors on rat pituitary cells than hGH-RH-(1-29)-NH2. Because of high activity and greater stability, these analogs could be considered for therapy of patients with growth hormone deficiency.

Cím:Short-chain analogs of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone containing cytotoxic moieties / T. Janáky, A. Juhász, Z. Rékasi, P. Serfözö, J. Pinski, L. Bokser, G. Srkalovic, S. Milovanovic, T. W. Redding, G. Halmos, A. Nagy, A. V. Schally

Megjegyzések:Five hexapeptide and heptapeptide analogs of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) were synthesized for use as carriers for cytotoxic compounds. These short analogs were expected to enhance target selectivity of the antineoplastic agents linked to them. Native LH-RH-(3-9) and LH-RH-(4-9) containing D-lysine and D-ornithine at position 6 were amidated with ethylamine and acylated on the N terminus. The receptor-binding affinity of one hexapeptide carrier AJ-41 (Ac-Ser-Tyr-D-Lys-Leu-Arg-Pro-NH-Et) to human breast cancer cell membranes was similar to that of [D-Trp6]LH-RH. Alkylating nitrogen mustards (melphalan, Ac-melphalan), anthraquinone derivatives including anticancer antibiotic doxorubicin, antimetabolite (methotrexate), and cisplatin-like platinum complex were linked to these peptides through their omega-amino group at position 6. The hybrid molecules showed no LH-RH agonistic activity in vitro and in vivo but had nontypical antagonistic effects on pituitary cells in vitro at the doses tested. These analogs showed a wide range of receptor-binding affinities to rat pituitaries and cell membranes of human breast cancer and rat Dunning prostate cancer. Several of these conjugates exerted some cytotoxic effects on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line.

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. Schally, Gabor Halmos, Kate Groot, Karoly Szepeshazi, Jacek Pinski, Patricia Armatis
Dátum:1998
ISSN:0008-543X
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.

Megjegyzések:Nude mice bearing xenografts of the androgen-independent human prostate cancer DU-145 were treated for 4-5 weeks with somatostatin analog RC-160 or the bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) antagonist RC-3095. Tumor growth in animals treated with somatostatin analog RC-160 at a dose of 100 micrograms/day s.c. was significantly inhibited within 14 days of the start of the experiment. At necropsy, in mice given RC-160, tumor weight and volume were significantly decreased compared with control mice. Treatment with RC-3095 at a dose of 20 micrograms/day s.c. also suppressed tumor growth, the inhibition being significant after 2 weeks, but the reduction in tumor volume and weight was smaller than that produced by RC-160. Therapy with RC-160 significantly decreased serum growth hormone and gastrin levels. Specific binding sites for bombesin, somatostatin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) were found in the DU-145 tumor membranes. Receptors for EGF were significantly down-regulated after therapy with RC-3095 and RC-160. The finding that somatostatin analog RC-160 and bombesin/GRP antagonist RC-3095 inhibit the growth of androgen-independent prostate tumors in mice might be of practical importance for human prostate cancer therapy.
