비소세포성 폐암 세포주에서 Farnesyl Transferase Inhibitor SCH66336과 인슐린양 성장 인자 결합 단백-3의 병용처리에 의한 세포 고사 상승 작용

Background : Insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-3 regulates non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo by inhibiting IGF-mediated signaling pathways. To have better strategies for the treatment of lung cancer, we analyzed the combining effects of adenovirus expressing IGFBP-3 (Ad5CMV-BP3) and SCH66336, a farnesyl transferase inhibitor (FTI) designed to block Ras-mediated proliferative signaling pathways. Methods : To measure the combining effects of Ad5CMV-BP3 and SCH66336 on the proliferation of NSCLC cells, human NSCLC cell lines (H1299, H596, A549, H460, and H358), SCH66336, recombinant adenovirus expressing IGFBP-3 (Ad5CMV-BP3) and athymic nude mice were used in these experiments. Results : The combination of Ad5CMV-BP3 and SCH66336 produced a synergistic enhancement in antiproliferative effects over a range of clinically achievable concentrations in a variety of NSCLC cell lines. Furthermore, we observed a significant reduction in growth of NSCLC xenograft induced in athymic nude mice. Conclusion : In conclusion, this study demonstrated for the first time that the FTI SCH66336 synergizes with IGFBP-3 and enhances its apoptotic activity in NSCLC cells in vitro and in vivo. The combined treatment of Ad5CMV-BP3 and SCH66336 raises the possibility of using this regimen in clinic for the treatment of NSCLC.(Tuberc Respir Dis 2005; 58:120-128) KCI Citation Count: 0
