[PMID: 38470445 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202400581] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024]
Abstract
α,β-aromatic lactams are highly abundant in biologically active molecules, yet so far they cannot be radiolabeled with short-lived (t1/2=20.3 min), β+-decaying carbon-11, which has prevented their application as positron emission tomography tracers. Herein, we developed, optimized, and applied a widely applicable, one-pot, quick, robust and automatable radiolabeling method for α,β-aromatic lactams starting from [11C]CO2 using the reagent POCl3⋅AlCl3. This method proceeds via intramolecular Friedel-Crafts acylation of in situ formed [11C]isocyanates and shows a broad substrate scope for the formation of five- and six-membered rings. We implemented our developed labeling method for the radiosynthesis of the potential PARP1 PET tracer [carbonyl-11C]DPQ in a clinical radiotracer production facility following the standards of the European Pharmacopoeia.

Demir S, Duman İ, Nazıroğlu M. Synergic actions of botulinum neurotoxin A and oxaliplatin on colorectal tumour cell death through the upregulation of TRPM2 channel-mediated oxidative stress. Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol 2024; 51:e13844. [PMID: 38350599 DOI: 10.1111/1440-1681.13844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024]
Abstract
Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT) is being shown to have anticancer action as a potential adjuvant treatment. The transient receptor potential (TRP) melastatin 2 (TRPM2) stimulator action of BoNT was reported in glioblastoma cells, but not in colorectal cancer (HT29) cells. By activating TRPM2, we evaluated the impacts of BoNT and oxaliplatin (OXA) incubations on oxidant and apoptotic values within the HT29 cells. Control, BoNT (5 IU for 24 h), OXA (50 μM for 24 h) and their combinations were induced. We found that TRPM2 protein is upregulated and mediates enhanced BoNT and OXA-induced Ca2+ entry in cells as compared to control cells. The increase of free reactive oxygen species (ROS), but the decrease of glutathione is the main ROS responsible for TRPM2 activation on H29 exposure to oxidative stress. BoNT and OXA-mediated Ca2+ entry through TRPM2 stimulation in response to H2 O2 results in mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, followed by mitochondrial membrane depolarization, apoptosis and caspase-3/-8/-9, although they were diminished in the TRPM2 antagonist groups (N-(p-amylcinnamoyl)anthranilic acid and carvacrol). In conclusion, by increasing the susceptibility of HT29 tumour cells to oxidative stress and apoptosis, the combined administration of BoNT and OXA via the targeting of TRPM2 may offer a different approach to kill the tumour cells.

Abstract
Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) are obtained from diet or derived from essential shorter-chain fatty acids, and are crucial for brain development and functioning. Fundamentally, LC-PUFAs' neurobiological effects derive from their physicochemical characteristics, including length and double bond configuration, which differentiate LC-PUFA species and give rise to functional differences between n(omega)-3 and n-6 LC-PUFAs. LC-PUFA imbalances are implicated in psychiatric disorders, including major depression and suicide risk. Dietary intake and genetic variants in enzymes involved in biosynthesis of LC-PUFAs from shorter chain fatty acids influence LC-PUFA status. Domains impacted by LC-PUFAs include 1) cell signaling, 2) inflammation, and 3) bioenergetics. 1) As major constituents of lipid bilayers, LC-PUFAs are determinants of cell membrane properties of viscosity and order, affecting lipid rafts, which play a role in regulation of membrane-bound proteins involved in cell-cell signaling, including monoaminergic receptors and transporters. 2) The n-3:n-6 LC-PUFA balance profoundly influences inflammation. Generally, metabolic products of n-6 LC-PUFAs (eicosanoids) are pro-inflammatory, while those of n-3 LC-PUFAs (docosanoids) participate in the resolution of inflammation. Additionally, n-3 LC-PUFAs suppress microglial activation and the ensuing proinflammatory cascade. 3) N-3 LC-PUFAs in the inner mitochondrial membrane affect oxidative stress, suppressing production of and scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS), with neuroprotective benefits. Until now, this wealth of knowledge about LC-PUFA biomechanisms has not been adequately tapped to develop translational studies of LC-PUFA clinical effects in humans. Future studies integrating neurobiological mechanisms with clinical outcomes may suggest ways to identify depressed individuals most likely to respond to n-3 LC-PUFA supplementation, and mechanistic research may generate new treatment strategies.

J Mol Neurosci 2024; 74:7. [PMID: 38193979 DOI: 10.1007/s12031-023-02174-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024]
Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common as well as the most fatal primary malignant tumor of the central nervous system (CNS), which still lacks a definitive cure. 5-FU is an anti-metabolite anti-cancer agent which has shown promising results for GBM treatment. Resveratrol (Res) is a phytochemical anti-oxidant that has also been effective in suppressing the progression of GBM. The combination of 5-FU and Res has been studied in a variety of cancers, but no study has assessed this combination in GBM. In this study, we investigated how 5-FU and Res, in combination and alone, may affect the growth and apoptosis of GBM cells and also the potential of TRPM2 and β-catenin as the mediator of their effects. U87 cells were cultured as the in vitro model. MTT assay was used for measuring cellular growth, and RT-qPCR was used to measure the level of caspase-3, TRPM2, and β-catenin; caspase-3 level served as the indicator of apoptotic rate. 5-FU and Res, in combination and alone, suppressed the growth while promoting the apoptosis of U87 cells; these effects were significantly greater when they were used in combination. RT-qPCR showed downregulation of TRPM-2 and β-catenin in response to this combination, which suggested that these two molecules may mediate the cited anti-oncogenic effects. In conclusion, our study confirmed the synergism between 5-FU and Res in suppressing the progression of GBM and suggested the putative axis of TRPM2/ β-catenin as the downstream mediator of this therapeutic regime. Future studies may be able to approve the eligibility of this therapeutic regime for GBM treatment and also the underlying mechanism.

Mar Drugs 2023; 21:636.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancer types worldwide. Chemotherapy is toxic to normal cells, and combinatory treatment with natural well-tolerated products is being explored. Some omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) and marine fish oils have anti-cancer effects on CRC cells. The salmon oil OmeGo (Hofseth BioCare) contains a spectrum of fatty acids, including the n-3 PUFAs docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosahexaenoic acid (EPA). We explored a potential anti-cancer effect of OmeGo on the four CRC cell lines DLD-1, HCT-8, LS411N, and LS513, alone and in combination with the chemotherapeutic agent 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU). Screening indicated a time- and dose-dependent effect of OmeGo on the viability of the DLD-1 and LS513 CRC cell lines. Treatment with 5-FU and OmeGo (IC20-IC30) alone indicated a significant reduction in viability. A combinatory treatment with OmeGo and 5-FU resulted in a further reduction in viability in DLD-1 and LS513 cells. Treatment of CRC cells with DHA + EPA in a concentration corresponding to the content in OmeGo alone or combined with 5-FU significantly reduced viability of all four CRC cell lines tested. The lowest concentration of OmeGo reduced viability to a higher degree both alone and in combination with 5-FU compared to the corresponding concentrations of DHA + EPA in three of the cell lines. Results suggest that a combination of OmeGo and 5-FU could have a potential as an alternative anti-cancer therapy for patients with CRC.

Abstract
TRPM2 is a versatile and essential signaling molecule that plays diverse roles in Ca2+ homeostasis and oxidative stress signaling, with implications in various diseases. Research evidence has shown that TRPM2 is a promising therapeutic target. However, the decision of whether to activate or inhibit TRPM2 function depends on the context and specific disease. A deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing TRPM2 activation and regulation could pave the way for the development of innovative therapeutics targeting TRPM2 to treat a broad range of diseases. In this review, we examine the structural and biophysical details of TRPM2, its involvement in neurological and cardiovascular diseases, and its role in inflammation and immune system function. In addition, we provide a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of TRPM2 signaling pathways in cancer, including its functions in bioenergetics, oxidant defense, autophagy, and response to anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an aggressive brain cancer showing poor prognosis. Currently, treatment methods of GBM are limited with adverse outcomes and low survival rate. Thus, advancements in the treatment of GBM are of utmost importance, which can be achieved in recent decades. However, despite aggressive initial treatment, most patients develop recurrent diseases, and the overall survival rate of patients is impossible to achieve. Currently, researchers across the globe target signaling events along with tumor microenvironment (TME) through different drug molecules to inhibit the progression of GBM, but clinically they failed to demonstrate much success. Herein, we discuss the therapeutic targets and signaling cascades along with the role of the organoids model in GBM research. Moreover, we systematically review the traditional and emerging therapeutic strategies in GBM. In addition, we discuss the implications of nanotechnologies, AI, and combinatorial approach to enhance GBM therapeutics.

Abstract
Melittin (MLT) treatment is believed to enhance tumor cell death, apoptotic, and oxidative cytotoxic effects of cisplatin (CSP) via the modulation of Ca2+ channels in several cancer lines. The activation of TRPM2 mediated anticancer and CSP resistance actions via mitochondrial Ca2+ and Zn2+ accumulation-induced mitochondrial reactive free oxygen species (MitSOX) in the glioblastoma cells. The aim was to elucidate the effects of CSP and MLT combination via the TRPM2 stimulation on the tumor cell viability, cell number, cell death (propidium iodide/Hoechst rate), apoptosis, and MitSOX levels in the DBTRG-05MG cells. In the DBTRG-05MG cells, we induced four groups as control, MLT (2.5 μg/ml for 24 h), CSP (25 μM for 24 h), and CSP + MLT. The CSP-induced intracellular Ca2+ influxes to the TRPM2 activation were increased in the cells from coming H2O2 and ADP-Ribose. The influxes were decreased in the cells by the incubations of TRPM2 antagonists (ACA and carvacrol). The incubation of CSP increased the parameters of intracellular Ca2+ responses, mitochondria function, cytosolic free Zn2+ accumulation, apoptosis (caspase -3, -8, and -9), and MitSOX generation in the tumor cells. After the treatment of MLT with/without CSP, the parameters were further increased in the cells. In conclusion, the treatment of MLT increased the anticancer, tumor cell death, apoptotic, and oxidant effects of CSP in the glioblastoma tumor cells via activating the TRPM2. As a result, TRPM2 stimulation by MLT may be utilized as a successful agent in the CSP treatment of glioblastoma tumors.

Silver nanoparticles potentiate antitumor and oxidant actions of cisplatin via the stimulation of TRPM2 channel in glioblastoma tumor cells. Chem Biol Interact 2023; 369:110261.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of silver nanoparticle (AgNP) and cisplatin (CiSP) exposure via the activation of TRPM2 cation channels in glioblastoma (DBTRG-05MG) cell line. The cells were divided into four groups as control, AgNPs (100 μg/ml for 48 h), CiSP (25 μM for 24 h), and CiSP + AgNPs. We found that the cytotoxic, oxidant and apoptotic actions of CiSP were further stimulated through the activation of TRPM2 (via ADP-ribose and H2O2) in the cells by the treatment of AgNPs. The actions were decreased in the cells by the treatments of TRPM2 antagonists (ACA and 2APB). The apoptotic actions of AgNPs were induced by the stimulation of propidium iodide positive DBTRG-05MG rate, caspase -3, caspase -8, and caspase -9 activations, although their oxidant actions were acted by the increase of mitochondrial membrane depolarization, lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial oxygen free radicals (ROS), and cytosolic ROS, but the decrease of total antioxidant status, glutathione, and glutathione peroxidase. The accumulation of cytosolic free Ca2+ and Zn2+ into mitochondria via the activation of TRPM2 current density and activity accelerated oxidant and apoptotic actions of AgNPs in the cells. We found that the combination of AgNPs and CiSP was synergistic via the stimulation of TRPM2 for treatment of DBTRG-05MG cells. The combination of AgNPs and CiSP showed a favorable action via the stimulation of TRPM2 in the treatment of glioblastoma tumor cells.
