摘要
真核延伸因子-2激酶(eEF2K)可以使癌细胞适应代谢压力,在一些癌症类型中发现了eEF2K的高表达,eEF2K有助于癌症的发生,可作为一个潜在的治疗靶点,然而抑制eEF2K的抗肿瘤药物的开发依然停留在初期。于此,我们通过计算机辅助药物筛选并合成了一系列靶向eEF2K的候选药物,最终找到了一个新的与eEF2K有良好亲和力的eEF2K抑制剂(BL-EKI03)。在MCF-7,MDA-MB-436细胞中,我们发现BL-EKI03有显著的抗增殖活性,并且可以诱导细胞自噬和细胞凋亡。更重要的是,我们验证了BL-EKI03通过eEE2K介导的AMPK-mTOR-ULK复合体通路来诱导死亡性自噬的机制。这些结果证明了一个新型的eEF2K抑制剂(BL-EKI03)通过诱导自噬和凋亡发挥抗乳腺癌作用,这个抑制剂为未来的肿瘤治疗提供了新希望。
Eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase(eEF2K) activity may confer cancer celladaptation to metabolic stress,and high expression of eEF2 K has been found in severaltypes of cancer.Thus,eEF2 K may contribute to carcinogenesis and also represent apotential target;however,inhibition of eEF2 K for cancer drug discovery still remains in itsinfancy.Herein,we computationally screened a series of candidate compounds targetingeEF2 K,synthesized series of compounds,and eventually discovered a novel eEF2Kinhibitor(BL-EKI03) with a good affinity for eEF2 K.Subsequently,we found that BL-EKI03 has remarkable anti-proliferative activities and induces autophagy and apoptosis inMCF-7 and MDA-MB-436 cells.More importantly,we demonstrated that the mechanismfor BL-EKI03-induced autophagic cell death involves eEF2K-mediated AMPK-mTOR-ULKcomplex pathways.Altogether,these results demonstrate that a novel eEF2 K inhibitor(BL-EKI03)induces autophagy and apoptosis in breast cancer and that this inhibitor holds a promisefor future cancer therapy.
