Enduring metabolic modulation in the cardiac tissue of elderly CD-1 mice two months post mitoxantrone treatment. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 223:199-211. [PMID: 39059512 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2024.07.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2024] [Revised: 07/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
Mitoxantrone (MTX) is a therapeutic agent used in the treatment of solid tumors and multiple sclerosis, recognized for its cardiotoxicity, with underlying molecular mechanisms not fully disclosed. The cardiotoxicity is influenced by risk factors, including age. Our study intended to assess the molecular effect of MTX on the cardiac muscle of old male CD-1 mice. Mice aged 19 months received a total cumulative dose of 4.5 mg/kg of MTX (MTX group) or saline solution (CTRL group). Two months post treatment, blood was collected, animals sacrificed, and the heart removed. MTX caused structural cardiac changes, which were accompanied by extracellular matrix remodeling, as indicated by the increased ratio between matrix metallopeptidase 2 and metalloproteinase inhibitor 2. At the metabolic level, decreased glycerol levels were found, together with a trend towards increased content of the electron transfer flavoprotein dehydrogenase. In contrast, lower glycolysis, given by the decreased content of glucose transporter GLUT4 and phosphofructokinase, seemed to occur. The findings suggest higher reliance on fatty acids oxidation, despite no major remodeling occurring at the mitochondrial level. Furthermore, the levels of glutamine and other amino acids (although to a lesser extent) were decreased, which aligns with decreased content of the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Atrogin-1, suggesting a decrease in proteolysis. As far as we know, this was the first study made in old mice with a clinically relevant dose of MTX, evaluating its long-term cardiac effects. Even two months after MTX exposure, changes in metabolic fingerprint occurred, highlighting enduring cardiac effects that may require clinical vigilance.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is associated with both genetic variants and environmental factors. One unifying consequence of the molecular risk factors in CVD is DNA damage, which must be repaired by DNA damage response proteins. However, the impact of DNA damage on global cardiomyocyte protein abundance, and its relationship to CVD risk remains unclear. We therefore treated induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes with the DNA-damaging agent Doxorubicin (DOX) and a vehicle control, and identified 4,178 proteins that contribute to a network comprising 12 co-expressed modules and 403 hub proteins with high intramodular connectivity. Five modules correlate with DOX and represent distinct biological processes including RNA processing, chromatin regulation and metabolism. DOX-correlated hub proteins are depleted for proteins that vary in expression across individuals due to genetic variation but are enriched for proteins encoded by loss-of-function intolerant genes. While proteins associated with genetic risk for CVD, such as arrhythmia are enriched in specific DOX-correlated modules, DOX-correlated hub proteins are not enriched for known CVD risk proteins. Instead, they are enriched among proteins that physically interact with CVD risk proteins. Our data demonstrate that DNA damage in cardiomyocytes induces diverse effects on biological processes through protein co-expression modules that are relevant for CVD, and that the level of protein connectivity in DNA damage-associated modules influences the tolerance to genetic variation.

The Metabolic Fingerprint of Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Male CD-1 Mice Fades Away with Time While Autophagy Increases. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1613.

Abstract
The cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOX) may manifest at the beginning/during treatment or years after, compromising patients' quality of life. We intended to study the cardiac pathways one week (short-term, control 1 [CTRL1] and DOX1 groups) or five months (long-term, CTRL2 and DOX2 groups) after DOX administration in adult male CD-1 mice. Control groups were given saline, and DOX groups received a 9.0 mg/Kg cumulative dose. In the short-term, DOX decreased the content of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) while the electron transfer flavoprotein-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETF-QO) increased compared to CTRL1, suggesting the upregulation of fatty acids oxidation. Moreover, mitofusin1 (Mfn1) content was decreased in DOX1, highlighting decreased mitochondrial fusion. In addition, increased B-cell lymphoma-2 associated X-protein (BAX) content in DOX1 pointed to the upregulation of apoptosis. Conversely, in the long-term, DOX decreased the citrate synthase (CS) activity and the content of Beclin1 and autophagy protein 5 (ATG5) compared to CTRL2, suggesting decreased mitochondrial density and autophagy. Our study demonstrates that molecular mechanisms elicited by DOX are modulated at different extents over time, supporting the differences on clinic cardiotoxic manifestations with time. Moreover, even five months after DOX administration, meaningful heart molecular changes occurred, reinforcing the need for the continuous cardiac monitoring of patients and determination of earlier biomarkers before clinical cardiotoxicity is set.

Cardiac Molecular Remodeling by Anticancer Drugs: Doxorubicin Affects More Metabolism While Mitoxantrone Impacts More Autophagy in Adult CD-1 Male Mice. Biomolecules 2023; 13:921. [PMID: 37371499 PMCID: PMC10296231 DOI: 10.3390/biom13060921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) and mitoxantrone (MTX) are classical chemotherapeutic agents used in cancer that induce similar clinical cardiotoxic effects, although it is not clear if they share similar underlying molecular mechanisms. We aimed to assess the effects of DOX and MTX on the cardiac remodeling, focusing mainly on metabolism and autophagy. Adult male CD-1 mice received pharmacologically relevant cumulative doses of DOX (18 mg/kg) and MTX (6 mg/kg). Both DOX and MTX disturbed cardiac metabolism, decreasing glycolysis, and increasing the dependency on fatty acids (FA) oxidation, namely, through decreased AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) content and decreased free carnitine (C0) and increased acetylcarnitine (C2) concentration. Additionally, DOX heavily influenced glycolysis, oxidative metabolism, and amino acids turnover by exclusively decreasing phosphofructokinase (PFKM) and electron transfer flavoprotein-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (ETFDH) content, and the concentration of several amino acids. Conversely, both drugs downregulated autophagy given by the decreased content of autophagy protein 5 (ATG5) and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3B), with MTX having also an impact on Beclin1. These results emphasize that DOX and MTX modulate cardiac remodeling differently, despite their clinical similarities, which is of paramount importance for future treatments.

Abstract
Improvements in the treatment of childhood cancer have considerably enhanced survival rates over the last decades to over 80% as of today. However, this great achievement has been accompanied by the occurrence of several early and long-term treatment-related complications major of which is cardiotoxicity. This article reviews the contemporary definition of cardiotoxicity, older and newer chemotherapeutic agents that are mainly involved in cardiotoxicity, routine process diagnoses, and methods using omics technology for early and preventive diagnosis. Chemotherapeutic agents and radiation therapies have been implicated as a cause of cardiotoxicity. In response, the area of cardio-oncology has developed into a crucial element of oncologic patient care, committed to the early diagnosis and treatment of adverse cardiac events. However, routine diagnosis and the monitoring of cardiotoxicity rely on electrocardiography and echocardiography. For the early detection of cardiotoxicity, in recent years, major studies have been conducted using biomarkers such as troponin, N-terminal pro b-natriuretic peptide, etc. Despite the refinements in diagnostics, severe limitations still exist due to the increase in the above-mentioned biomarkers only after significant cardiac damage has occurred. Lately, the research has expanded by introducing new technologies and finding new markers using the omics approach. These new markers could be used not only for early detection but also for the early prevention of cardiotoxicity. Omics science, which includes genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, offers new opportunities for biomarker discovery in cardiotoxicity and may provide an understanding of the mechanisms of cardiotoxicity beyond traditional technologies.

Abstract
Several anticancer agents have been associated with cardiac toxic effects. The currently proposed mechanisms to explain cardiotoxicity differ among anticancer agents, but in fact, the specific modulation is not completely elucidated. Thus, this systematic review aims to provide an integrative perspective of the molecular mechanisms underlying the toxicity of anticancer agents on heart muscle while using a high-throughput technology, mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. A literature search using PubMed database led to the selection of 27 studies, of which 13 reported results exclusively on animal models, 13 on cardiomyocyte-derived cell lines and only one included both animal and a cardiomyocyte line. The reported anticancer agents were the proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib, the anthracyclines daunorubicin, doxorubicin, epirubicin and idarubicin, the antimicrotubule agent docetaxel, the alkylating agent melphalan, the anthracenedione mitoxantrone, the tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) erlotinib, lapatinib, sorafenib and sunitinib, and the monoclonal antibody trastuzumab. Regarding the MS-based proteomic approaches, electrophoretic separation using two-dimensional (2D) gels coupled with tandem MS (MS/MS) and liquid chromatography-MS/MS (LC-MS/MS) were the most common. Overall, the studies highlighted 1826 differentially expressed proteins across 116 biological processes. Most of them were grouped in larger processes and critically analyzed in the present review. The selection of studies using proteomics on heart muscle allowed to obtain information about the anticancer therapy-induced modulation of numerous proteins in this tissue and to establish connections that have been disregarded in other studies. This systematic review provides interesting points for a comprehensive understanding of the cellular cardiotoxicity mechanisms of different anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Current cancer therapies are successfully increasing the lifespan of cancer patients. Nevertheless, cardiotoxicity is a serious chemotherapy-induced adverse side effect. Doxorubicin (DOX) and mitoxantrone (MTX) are cardiotoxic anticancer agents, whose toxicological mechanisms are still to be identified. This study focused on DOX and MTX's cardiac mitochondrial damage and their molecular mechanisms. As a hypothesis, we also sought to compare the cardiac modulation caused by 9 mg/kg of DOX or 6 mg/kg of MTX in young adult mice (3 months old) with old control mice (aged control, 18-20 months old) to determine if DOX- and MTX-induced damage had common links with the aging process. Cardiac homogenates and enriched mitochondrial fractions were prepared from treated and control animals and analyzed by immunoblotting and enzymatic assays. Enriched mitochondrial fractions were also characterized by mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Data obtained showed a decrease in mitochondrial density in young adults treated with DOX or MTX and aged control, as assessed by citrate synthase (CS) activity. Furthermore, aged control had increased expression of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1 α (PGC1α) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Regarding the enriched mitochondrial fractions, DOX and MTX led to downregulation of proteins related to oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid oxidation, amino acid metabolic process, and tricarboxylic acid cycle. MTX had a greater impact on malate dehydrogenase (MDH2) and pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit α (PDHA1). No significant proteomic changes were observed in the enriched mitochondrial fractions of aged control when compared to young control. To conclude, DOX and MTX promoted changes in several mitochondrial-related proteins in young adult mice, but none resembling the aged phenotype.

Exercise-induced peptide TAG-23 protects cardiomyocytes from reperfusion injury through regulating PKG-cCbl interaction. Basic Res Cardiol 2021; 116:41.

Abstract
Recent studies have revealed that proper exercise can reduce the risk of chronic disease and is beneficial to the body. Peptides have been shown to play an important role in various pathological processes, including cardiovascular diseases. However, little is known about the role of exercise-induced peptides in cardiovascular disease. We aimed to explore the function and mechanism of TAG-23 peptide in reperfusion injury and oxidative stress. Treatment with TAG-23 peptide significantly improved cell viability, the mitochondrial membrane potential, and ROS levels and reduced LDH release, the apoptosis rate and caspase 3 activation in vitro. In vivo, TAG-23 ameliorated MI and heart failure induced by I/R or DOX treatment. Pull-down assays showed that TAG-23 can bind to PKG . The TAG-23-PKG complex inhibited PKG degradation through the UPS. We also identified cCbl as the E3 ligase of PKG and found that the interaction between these proteins was impaired by TAG-23 treatment. In addition, we provided evidence that TAG-23 mediated Lys48-linked polyubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation. Our results reveal that a novel exercise-induced peptide, TAG-23, can inhibit PKG degradation by serving as a competitive binding peptide to attenuate the formation of the PKG–cCbl complex. Treatment with TAG-23 may be a new therapeutic approach for reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Significance: Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity (CTX) has been associated with redox signaling imbalance. In fact, redox reactions are crucial for normal heart physiology, whereas excessive oxidative stress can cause cardiomyocyte structural damage. Recent Advances: An antioxidant approach as a cardioprotective strategy in this setting has shown encouraging results in preventing anticancer drug-induced CTX. Critical Issues: In fact, traditional heart failure drugs as well as many other compounds and nonpharmacological strategies, with a partial effect in reducing oxidative stress, have been shown to counterbalance chemotherapy-induced CTX in this setting to some extent. Future Directions: Given the various pathways of toxicity involved in different chemotherapeutic schemes, interactions with redox balance need to be fine-tuned and a personalized cardioprotective approach seems to be required.

Abstract
Several studies have demonstrated that administration of doxorubicin (DOXO) results in cardiotoxicity, which eventually progresses to dilated cardiomyopathy. The present work aimed to evaluate the early myocardial changes of DOXO-induced cardiotoxicity. Male New Zealand White rabbits were injected intravenously with DOXO twice weekly for 8 wk [DOXO-induced heart failure (DOXO-HF)] or with an equivolumetric dose of saline (control). Echocardiographic evaluation was performed, and myocardial samples were collected to evaluate myocardial cellular and molecular modifications. The DOXO-HF group presented cardiac hypertrophy and higher left ventricular cavity diameters, showing a dilated phenotype but preserved ejection fraction. Concerning cardiomyocyte function, the DOXO-HF group presented a trend toward increased active tension without significant differences in passive tension. The myocardial GSSG-to-GSH ratio and interstitial fibrosis were increased and Bax-to- Bcl-2 ratio presented a trend toward an increase, suggesting the activation of apoptosis signaling pathways. The macromolecule titin shifted toward the more compliant isoform (N2BA), whereas the stiffer one (N2B) was shown to be hypophosphorylated. Differential protein analysis from the aggregate-enriched fraction through gel liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry revealed an increase in the histidine-rich glycoprotein fragment in DOXO-HF animals. This work describes novel and early myocardial effects of DOXO-induced cardiotoxicity. Thus, tracking these changes appears to be of extreme relevance for the early detection of cardiac damage (as soon as ventricular dilation becomes evident) before irreversible cardiac function deterioration occurs (reduced ejection fraction). Moreover, it allows for the adjustment of the therapeutic approach and thus the prevention of cardiomyopathy progression. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Identification of early myocardial effects of doxorubicin in the heart is essential to hinder the development of cardiac complications and adjust the therapeutic approach. This study describes doxorubicin-induced cellular and molecular modifications before the onset of dilated cardiomyopathy. Myocardial samples from doxorubicin-treated rabbits showed a tendency for higher cardiomyocyte active tension, titin isoform shift from N2B to N2BA, hypophosphorylation of N2B, increased apoptotic genes, left ventricular interstitial fibrosis, and increased aggregation of histidine-rich glycoprotein.

Abstract
PURPOSE Anthracyclines are widely used chemotherapeutic drugs that can cause progressive and irreversible cardiac damage and fatal heart failure. Several genetic variants associated with anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC) have been identified, but they explain only a small proportion of the interindividual differences in AIC susceptibility. METHODS In this study, we evaluated the association of low-frequency variants with risk of chronic AIC using the Illumina HumanExome BeadChip array in a discovery cohort of 61 anthracycline-treated breast cancer patients with replication in a second independent cohort of 83 anthracycline-treated pediatric cancer patients, using gene-based tests (SKAT-O). RESULTS The most significant associated gene in the discovery cohort was ETFB (electron transfer flavoprotein beta subunit) involved in mitochondrial β-oxidation and ATP production (P = 4.16 × 10-4) and this association was replicated in an independent set of anthracycline-treated cancer patients (P = 2.81 × 10-3). Within ETFB, we found that the missense variant rs79338777 (p.Pro52Leu; c.155C > T) made the greatest contribution to the observed gene association and it was associated with increased risk of chronic AIC in the two cohorts separately and when combined (OR 9.00, P = 1.95 × 10-4, 95% CI 2.83-28.6). CONCLUSIONS We identified and replicated a novel gene, ETFB, strongly associated with chronic AIC independently of age at tumor onset and related to anthracycline-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction. Although experimental verification and further studies in larger patient cohorts are required to confirm our finding, we demonstrated that exome array data analysis represents a valuable strategy to identify novel genes contributing to the susceptibility to chronic AIC.

Abstract
Despite advances in supportive and protective therapy for myocardial function, heart failure caused by various clinical conditions, including cardiomyopathy due to antineoplastic therapy, remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Because of the limitations associated with current therapies, investigators have been searching for alternative treatments that can effectively repair the damaged heart and permanently restore its function. Damage to the heart can result from both traditional chemotherapeutic agents, such as anthracyclines, and new targeted therapies, such as trastuzumab. Because of this unresolved issue, investigators are searching for alternative therapeutic strategies. In this article, we present state-of-the-art technology with regard to the genomic and epigenetic mechanisms underlying cardiotoxicity and cardioprotection, the role of anticancer in influencing the redox (reduction/oxidation) balance and the function of stem cells in the repair/regeneration of the adult heart. These findings, although not immediately transferable to clinical applications, form the basis for the development of personalized medicine based on the prevention of cardiotoxicity with the use of genetic testing. Proteomics, metabolomics and investigations on reactive oxygen species-dependent pathways, particularly those that interact with the production of NO and energy metabolism, appear to be promising for the identification of early markers of cardiotoxicity and for the development of cardioprotective agents. Finally, autologous cardiac stem and progenitor cells may represent future contributions in the field of myocardial protection and recovery in the context of antiblastic therapy.

Abstract
Heart failure due to antineoplastic therapy remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in oncological patients. These patients often have no prior manifestation of disease. There is therefore a need for accurate identification of individuals at risk of such events before the appearance of clinical manifestations. The present article aims to provide an overview of cardiac imaging as well as new "-omics" technologies, especially with regard to genomics and proteomics as promising tools for the early detection and prediction of cardiotoxicity and individual responses to antineoplastic drugs.

Abstract
Gallic acid (GA) has long been associated with a wide range of biological activities. In this study, its antitumor effect against B16F10 melanoma cells was demonstrated by MTT assay, cell migration assay, wound-healing assay, and flow cytometric analysis. GA with a concentration >200 μM shows apoptotic activity toward B16F10 cells. According to Western blotting data, overexpressions of cleaved forms of caspase-9, caspase-3, and PARP-1 and pro-apoptotic Bax and Bad, accompanied by underexpressed anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL indicate that GA induces B16F10 cell apoptosis via mitochondrial pathway. The 2-DE based comparative proteomics was further employed in B16F10 cells with and without GA treatment for a large-scale protein expression profiling. A total of 41 differential protein spots were quantified, and their identities were characterized using LC-MS/MS analysis and database matching. In addition to some regulated proteins that were associated with apoptosis, interestingly, some identified proteins involved in glycolysis such as glucokinase, α-enolase, aldolase, pyruvate kinase, and GAPDH were simultaneously up-regulated, which reveals that the GA-induced cellular apoptosis in B16 melanoma cells is associated with metabolic glycolysis.

Abstract
As a classical formula, Sini decoction (SND) has been fully proved to be clinically effective in treating doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiomyopathy. Current chemomics and pharmacology proved that the total alkaloids (TA), total gingerols (TG), total flavones and total saponins (TFS) are the major active ingredients of Aconitum carmichaelii, Zingiber officinale and Glycyrrhiza uralensis in SND respectively. Our animal experiments in this study demonstrated that the above active ingredients (TAGFS) were more effective than formulas formed by any one or two of the three individual components and nearly the same as SND. However, very little is known about the action mechanisms of TAGFS. Thus, this study aimed to use for the first time the combination of GC/LC-MS based metabolomics and network pharmacology for solving this problem. By metabolomics, it was found that TAGFS worked by regulating six primary pathways. Then, network pharmacology was applied to search for specific targets. 17 potential cardiovascular related targets were found through molecular docking, 11 of which were identified by references, which demonstrated the therapeutic effectiveness of TAGFS using network pharmacology. Among these targets, four targets, including phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma, insulin receptor, ornithine aminotransferase and glucokinase, were involved in the TAGFS regulated pathways. Moreover, phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma, insulin receptor and glucokinase were proved to be targets of active components in SND. In addition, our data indicated TA as the principal ingredient in the SND formula, whereas TG and TFS served as adjuvant ingredients. We therefore suggest that dissecting the mode of action of clinically effective formulae with the combination use of metabolomics and network pharmacology may be a good strategy.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (dox) is an effective chemotherapeutic agent that leads to cardiotoxicity. An alternative treatment for dox-cardiotoxicity is autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplantation. It remains unclear if dox has deleterious effects on MSCs from subjects under chemotherapy, therefore this study aimed to evaluate dox in vivo toxicological effects on ex vivo cultured MSCs, inferring whether autologous transplantation may be an alternative treatment in patients who are exposed to the drug. Wistar rats received either dox or saline. Following treatments, animals were sacrificed and bone marrow MSCs were isolated, characterized for cell surface markers and assessed according to their viability, alkaline phosphatase production, and proliferation kinetics. Moreover, MSCs were primed to cardiac differentiation and troponin T and connexin 43 expressions were evaluated. Compared to control, undifferentiated MSCs from dox group kept the pattern for surface marker and had similar viability results. In contrast, they showed lower alkaline phosphatase production, proliferation rate, and connexin 43 expression. Primed MSCs from dox group showed lower troponin T levels. It was demonstrated a toxic effect of dox in host MSCs. This result renders the possibility of autologous MSCs transplantation to treat dox-cardiotoxicity, which could be a non-suitable option for subjects receiving such antineoplastic agent.

Abstract
Administration of chemotherapy during pregnancy may represent a big risk factor for the developing brain, therefore we studied whether the transplacental transport of doxorubicin (DOX) may affect the development of neuroendocrine system. DOX (25 mg/kg; 3 times interaperitoneally/week) was given to pregnant rats during whole gestation period. The disturbances in neuroendocrine functions were investigated at gestation day (GD) 15 and 20 by following the maternal and fetal thyroid hormone levels, fetal nucleotides (ATP, ADP, AMP) levels and adenosine triphosphatase (Na(+), K(+)-ATPase, Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase) activities in two brain regions, cerebrum and cerebellum. In control group, the levels of maternal and fetal serum thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), thyrotropin (TSH), and fetal serum growth hormone (GH) increased from days 15 to 20, whereas in the DOX group, a decrease in maternal and fetal T4, T3 and increase in TSH levels (hypothyroid status) were observed. Also, the levels of fetal GH decreased continuously from GD 15 to 20 with respect to control group. In cerebrum and cerebellum, the levels of fetal nucleotides and the activities of fetal ATPases in control group followed a synchronized course of development. The fetal hypothyroidism due to maternal administration of DOX decreased the levels of nucleotides, ATPases activities, and total adenylate, instead, the adenylate energy charge showed a trend to an increase in both brain regions at all ages tested. These alterations were dose- and age-dependent and this, in turn, may impair the nerve transmission. Finally, DOX may act as neuroendocrine disruptor causing hypothyroidism and fetal brain energetic dysfunction.

Abstract
An oral squamous cell carcinoma Ca9-22 cell line was treated with 11-dehydrosinulariolide, an active compound isolated from the soft coral Sinularia leptoclados, in order to evaluate the effect of this compound on cell growth and protein expression. Cell proliferation was strongly inhibited by 11-dehydrosinulariolide treatment. The 2-DE master maps of control and treated Ca9-22 cells were generated by analysis with the PDQuest software. The comparison between such maps showed up- and down-regulation of 23 proteins, of which 14 were upregulated and 9 were downregulated. The proteomic studies described here have identified some proteins, which are involved in the mitochondrial dysfunction and ER-stress pathway and imply that 11-dehydrosinulariolide induces cell apoptosis through either mitochondrial dysfunction-related or ER stress pathway. Based on this observation, several proteins related to apoptosis pathway were explored for the potential roles involved in this drug-induced cytotoxicity. Furthermore, Salubrinal, an ER stress inhibitor, is able to protect the cell from 11-dehydrosinulariolide-induced apoptosis in a physiological dosage. The significance of these studies illustrates the potential development of anticancer drugs from the natural derivatives of soft coral.

Mitochondria death/survival signaling pathways in cardiotoxicity induced by anthracyclines and anticancer-targeted therapies. Biochem Res Int 2012; 2012:951539. [PMID: 22482055 PMCID: PMC3318211 DOI: 10.1155/2012/951539] [Citation(s) in RCA: 49] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2011] [Revised: 01/04/2012] [Accepted: 01/09/2012] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Anthracyclines remain the cornerstone of treatment in many malignancies but these agents have a cumulative dose relationship with cardiotoxicity. Development of cardiomyopathy and congestive heart failure induced by anthracyclines are typically dose-dependent, irreversible, and cumulative. Although past studies of cardiotoxicity have focused on anthracyclines, more recently interest has turned to anticancer drugs that target many proteins kinases, such as tyrosine kinases. An attractive model to explain the mechanism of this cardiotoxicity could be myocyte loss through cell death pathways. Inhibition of mitochondrial transition permeability is a valuable tool to prevent doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. In response to anthracycline treatment, activation of several protein kinases, neuregulin/ErbB2 signaling, and transcriptional factors modify mitochondrial functions that determine cell death or survival through the modulation of mitochondrial membrane permeability. Cellular response to anthracyclines is also modulated by a myriad of transcriptional factors that influence cell fate. Several novel targeted chemotherapeutic agents have been associated with a small but worrying risk of left ventricular dysfunction. Agents such as trastuzumab and tyrosine kinase inhibitors can lead to cardiotoxicity that is fundamentally different from that caused by anthracyclines, whereas biological effects converge to the mitochondria as a critical target.

Abstract
The successful use of anthracyclines like doxorubicin in chemotherapy is limited by their severe cardiotoxicity. Despite decades of clinical application, a satisfying description of the molecular mechanisms involved and a preventive treatment have not yet been achieved. Here we address doxorubicin-induced changes in cell signaling as a novel potential mediator of doxorubicin toxicity by applying a non-biased screen of the cardiac phosphoproteome. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, phosphospecific staining, quantitative image analysis, and MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry were combined to identify (de)phosphorylation events occurring in the isolated rat heart upon Langendorff-perfusion with clinically relevant (5 μM) and supraclinical concentrations (25 μM) of doxorubicin. This approach identified 22 proteins with a significantly changed phosphorylation status and these results were validated by immunoblotting for selected phosphosites. Overrepresentation of mitochondrial proteins (>40%) identified this compartment as a prime target of doxorubicin. Identified proteins were mainly involved in energy metabolism (e.g. pyruvate dehydrogenase and acyl-CoA dehydrogenase), sarcomere structure and function (e.g. desmin) or chaperone-like activities (e.g. α-crystallin B chain and prohibitin). Changes in phosphorylation of pyruvate dehydrogenase, regulating pyruvate entry into the Krebs cycle, and desmin, maintaining myofibrillar array, are relevant for main symptoms of cardiac dysfunction related to doxorubicin treatment, namely energy imbalance and myofibrillar disorganization. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Translational Proteomics.

PLoS One 2011; 6:e27683. [PMID: 22110719 PMCID: PMC3218026 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0027683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2011] [Accepted: 10/21/2011] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most potent antitumor agents available; however, its clinical use is limited because of the risk of severe cardiotoxicity. Though numerous studies have ascribed DOX cardiomyopathy to specific cellular pathways, the precise mechanism remains obscure. Sini decoction (SND) is a well-known formula of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and is considered as efficient agents against DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. However, its action mechanisms are not well known due to its complex components. Methodology/Principal Findings A tissue-targeted metabonomic method using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry was developed to characterize the metabolic profile of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy in mice. With Elastic Net for classification and selection of biomarkers, twenty-four metabolites corresponding to DOX-induced cardiomyopathy were screened out, primarily involving glycolysis, lipid metabolism, citrate cycle, and some amino acids metabolism. With these altered metabolic pathways as possible drug targets, we systematically analyzed the protective effect of TCM SND, which showed that SND administration could provide satisfactory effect on DOX-induced cardiomyopathy through partially regulating the perturbed metabolic pathways. Conclusions/Significance The results of the present study not only gave rise to a systematic view of the development of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy but also provided the theoretical basis to prevent or modify expected damage.
