ATP analog enhances the actions of a heat shock protein 90 inhibitor in multiple myeloma cells.
Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics 2011 November
Heat shock protein (HSP) 90 regulates client oncoprotein maturation. The chaperone function of HSP90 is blocked by 17-N-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), although it results in transcription and translation of antiapoptotic HSP proteins. Using three myeloma cell lines, we tested whether inhibition of transcription/translation of HSP or client proteins will enhance 17-AAG-mediated cytotoxicity. 8-Chloro-adenosine (8-Cl-Ado), currently in clinical trials, inhibits bioenergy production, mRNA transcription, and protein translation and was combined with 17-AAG. 17-AAG treatment resulted in HSP transcript and protein level elevation. In the combination, 8-Cl-Ado did not abrogate HSP mRNA and protein induction. HSP90 requires ATP to stabilize client proteins; hence, expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), Raf-1, and Akt was analyzed. 17-AAG alone resulted in <10% change in STAT3, Raf-1, and Akt protein levels, whereas no change was observed for 4E-BP1. In contrast, the combination treatment resulted in a >50% decrease in client protein levels and marked hypophosphorylation of 4E-BP1. 8-Cl-Ado alone resulted in a <30% decrease of client proteins and 4E-BP1 hypophosphorylation. 8-Cl-Ado combined with 17-AAG resulted in more than additive cytotoxicity. In conclusion, 8-Cl-Ado, which targets transcription, translation, and cellular bioenergy, enhanced 17-AAG-mediated cytotoxicity in myeloma cells.
