Combination of TrxR1 inhibitor and lenvatinib triggers ROS-dependent cell death in human lung cancer cells.
Lung cancer is one of the most lethal diseases in the world. Although there has been significant progress in the treatment of lung cancer, there is still a lack of effective strategies for advanced cases. Lenvatinib, a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has achieved much attention due to its antitumor properties. Nevertheless, the use of lenvatinib is restricted by the characteristics of poor efficacy and drug resistance. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of lenvatinib combined with thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) inhibitors in human lung cancer cells. Our results indicate that the combination therapy involving TrxR1 inhibitors and lenvatinib exhibited significant synergistic antitumor effects in human lung cancer cells. Moreover, siTrxR1 also showed significant synergy with lenvatinib in lung cancer cells. Mechanically, we demonstrated that ROS accumulation significantly contributes to the synergism between lenvatinib and TrxR1 inhibitor auranofin. Furthermore, the combination of lenvatinib and auranofin can activate endoplasmic reticulum stress and JNK signaling pathways to achieve the goal of killing lung cancer cells. Importantly, combination therapy with lenvatinib and auranofin exerted a synergistic antitumor effect in vivo . To sum up, the combination therapy involving lenvatinib and auranofin may be a potential strategy for treating lung cancer.
