The therapeutic value of SC66 in human renal cell carcinoma cells
The PI3K-AKT-mTOR cascade is required for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) progression. SC66 is novel AKT inhibitor. We found that SC66 inhibited viability, proliferation, migration and invasion of RCC cell lines (786-O and A498) and patient-derived primary RCC cells. Although SC66blocked AKT-mTORC1/2 act...

Zusammenfassung: | The PI3K-AKT-mTOR cascade is required for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) progression. SC66 is novel AKT inhibitor. We found that SC66 inhibited viability, proliferation, migration and invasion of RCC cell lines (786-O and A498) and patient-derived primary RCC cells. Although SC66blocked AKT-mTORC1/2 activation in RCC cells, it remained cytotoxic in AKT-inhibited/-silenced RCC cells. In RCC cells, SC66 cytotoxicity appears to occur via reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, sphingosine kinase 1inhibition, ceramide accumulation and JNK activation, independent of AKT inhibition. The ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine, the JNK inhibitor (JNKi) and the anti-ceramide sphingolipid sphingosine-1-phosphate all attenuated SC66-induced cytotoxicity in 786-O cells. In vivo, oral administration of SC66 potently inhibited subcutaneous 786-O xenograft growth in SCID mice. AKT-mTOR inhibition, SphK1 inhibition, ceramide accumulation and JNK activation were detected in SC66-treated 786-O xenograft tumors, indicating that SC66 inhibits RCC cell progression through AKT-dependent and AKT-independent mechanisms. |
