We now show that SC-ααδ9 induces IGF-1- resistant apoptosis and kills tumor cells in vivo. In cultured murine 32D cells, SC-ααδ9 induced concentration-dependent apoptosis that was blocked by ectopic Bcl-2 expression. No apoptosis was detected in 32D cells treated with the congener SC-α109, which lacks the ability to disrupt IGF-1 signaling. After interleukin-3 withdrawal or etoposide treatment, exogenous IGF-1 prevented apoptosis and elevated levels of Cdc2, a biochemical indicator of a functional IGF-1 receptor pathway. In contrast, exogenous IGF- 1 did not prevent apoptosis or loss of Cdc2 expression caused by SC-ααδ9. Furthermore, IGF-1 receptor overexpression failed to protect cells against SC-ααδ9-induced apoptosis. Kinetic analyses demonstrated that Cdc2 down- regulation after SC-ααδ9 treatment preceded both apoptosis and loss of the IGF-1 receptor, indicating that loss of Cdc2 was a direct effect of SC- ααδ9 treatment and not secondary to cell death. IGF-1 receptor autophosphorylation studies indicated that SC-ααδ9 did not interact directly with the IGF-1 receptor nor bind to the growth factor itself, suggesting a site of action distal to the IGF-1 receptor. In the SCCVII murine tumor model, a single i.p. injection of SC-ααδ9 caused a dose- dependent decrease in clonogenic cell survival. The IC50 of SC-ααδ9 was 35 mg/kg, comparable to 25 mg/kg carboplatin. The ability to induce IGF-1- resistant apoptosis distinguishes SC-ααδ9 from other apoptosis-inducing agents and suggests compounds of this class deserve further study as potential anticancer agents. date: 2000-02-01 date_type: published publication: Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics volume: 292 number: 2 pagerange: 530 - 537 refereed: TRUE issn: 0022-3565 pmid: 10640289 mesh_headings: Aminobutyrates--pharmacology mesh_headings: Animals mesh_headings: Antineoplastic Agents--pharmacology mesh_headings: Antineoplastic Agents--therapeutic use mesh_headings: Apoptosis--drug effects mesh_headings: Blotting, Western mesh_headings: Carboplatin--therapeutic use mesh_headings: Cell Cycle Proteins--genetics mesh_headings: Cell Transformation, Neoplastic--drug effects mesh_headings: Dose-Response Relationship, Drug mesh_headings: Down-Regulation--drug effects mesh_headings: Drug Interactions mesh_headings: Etoposide--pharmacology mesh_headings: Inhibitory Concentration 50 mesh_headings: Insulin-Like Growth Factor I--pharmacology mesh_headings: Interleukin-3--pharmacology mesh_headings: Mice mesh_headings: Oxazoles--pharmacology mesh_headings: Oxazoles--therapeutic use mesh_headings: Receptor, IGF Type 1--genetics mesh_headings: Time Factors mesh_headings: Tumor Cells, Cultured mesh_headings: Tumor Stem Cell Assay chemical_names: Aminobutyrates chemical_names: Antineoplastic Agents chemical_names: Cell Cycle Proteins chemical_names: Interleukin-3 chemical_names: Oxazoles chemical_names: SC alpha109 chemical_names: SC-alphaalphadelta9 chemical_names: Insulin-Like Growth Factor I chemical_names: Etoposide chemical_names: Carboplatin chemical_names: Receptor, IGF Type 1 citation: Vogt, A and Wang, AS and Johnson, CS and Fabisiak, JP and Wipf, P and Lazo, JS (2000) In vivo antitumor activity and induction of insulin-like growth factor- 1-resistant apoptosis by SC-ααδ9.
