ONC212 enhances YM155 cytotoxicity by triggering SLC35F2 expression and NOXA-dependent MCL1 degradation in acute myeloid leukemia cells.
Biochemical Pharmacology 2024 April 27
Although the anticancer activity of ONC212 has been reported, the precise mechanism underlying its apoptotic effects remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the apoptotic mechanism of ONC212 in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. ONC212 induces apoptosis, MCL1 downregulation, and mitochondrial depolarization in AML U937 cells. Ectopic MCL1 expression alleviates mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in ONC212-treated U937 cells. ONC212 triggers AKT phosphorylation, inducing NOX4-dependent ROS production and promoting HuR transcription. HuR-mediated ATF4 mRNA stabilization stimulates NOXA and SLC35F2 expression; ONC212-induced upregulation of NOXA leads to MCL1 degradation. The synergistic effect of ONC212 on YM155 cytotoxicity was dependent on increased SLC35F2 expression. In addition, YM155 feedback facilitated the activation of the ONC212-induced signaling pathway. A similar mechanism explains ONC212- and ONC212/YM155-induced AML HL-60 cell death. The continuous treatment of U937 cells with the benzene metabolite hydroquinone (HQ) generated U937/HQ cells, exhibiting enhanced responsiveness to the cytotoxic effects of ONC212. In U937/HQ cells, ONC212 triggered apoptosis through NOXA-mediated MCL1 downregulation, enhancing YM155 cytotoxicity. Collectively, our data suggested that ONC212 upregulated SLC35F2 expression and triggered NOXA-mediated MCL1 degradation in U937, U937/HQ, and HL-60 cells by activating the AKT/NOX4/HuR/ATF4 pathway. The ONC212-induced signaling pathway showed anti-AML activity and enhanced YM155 cytotoxicity.
