Activities of a newly synthesized compound, N-ethoxycarbonyl-7-oxo-staurosporine (NA-382), on cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase), Ca2+/phospholipid dependent protein kinase (C-kinase), and drug resistance were investigated and compared with those of staurosporine. Protein kinase-inhibitory activity of NA-382 was lower but more selective to C-kinase than that of staurosporine. NA-382 was less toxic to P388 cells and at a non-cytotoxic concentration completely reversed the vinblastine (VBL) resistance of Adriamycin-resistant P388 (P388/ADR) cells without influence on the effect of VBL on the parental P388/S cells. However, the cytotoxicity of staurosporine was too high to give the combination effect with VBL. NA-382 dose-dependently increased VBL-accumulation and inhibited VBL-efflux in P388/ADR with higher potency than staurosporine. Both compounds inhibited the photolabeling of [3H]azidopine on 140-kDa P-glycoprotein in the plasma membrane from the resistant cells. These results suggest that a staurosporine analog, NA-382, reverses multidrug resistance by inhibiting the drug-efflux system or P-glycoprotein.

We investigated the effects of seven isoquinoline derivatives in overcoming resistance to vinblastine in Adriamycin-resistant mouse leukemia P388/ADR cells and human myelogeneous leukemia K562/ADR cells. N-(2-Methylpiperazyl)-5-isoquinoline-sulfonamide (H-7), N-[2-(methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-8), and N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-9) did not reverse resistance to vinblastine in these resistant cells. N-[2-[N-[3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-propenyl]amino]ethyl]-5- isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-86) and N-[2-[N-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2-propenyl]- amino]ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (H-87) caused significant accumulation of intracellular vinblastine and marked reversal of the resistance to vinblastine in both resistant cell lines. Addition of a formyl group at the terminal amino group of H-86 (H-85) or addition of an aminoethyl group to the nitrogen atom at the sulfonamide group of H-86 (W-66) reduced those activities. The activity on vinblastine accumulation seems to correlated with the hydrophobicity of the compounds. The compounds that effectively reversed resistance to vinblastine inhibited [3H]vinblastine efflux and photoaffinity labeling of P-glycoprotein with a photosensitive analogue of vinblastine, N-(p-azido-(3-[125I]iodo)-salicyl)-N'-beta-aminoethylvindesine. Although these isoquinoline derivatives inhibited protein kinase A and protein kinase C with various potencies, these inhibitory activities did not correlate with the reversal of drug resistance. These results indicate that hydrophobic isoquinoline derivatives reverse multidrug resistance due to the suppression of drug binding to P-glycoprotein, without involvement of their activities on protein kinase A and protein kinase C.

We have shown previously that cytoplasmic extracts from actively dividing lymphoid cells are capable of inducing DNA synthesis in isolated nuclei. One of the factors involved in this activity, ADR, appears to be a greater than 90 kDa heat-labile protease. Cytoplasmic extracts prepared from nonproliferating lymphocytes express little to no ADR activity. However, ADR activity can be generated in these extracts by brief exposure to a membrane-enriched fraction of spontaneously proliferating, leukemic human T lymphoblastoid (MOLT-4) cells. This suggests that ADR activity is present in the resting cytoplasm in an inactive or precursor form. This in vitro generation of ADR activity can be inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by the isoquinolinesulfonamide derivative, H-7 (1-(5-isoquinoline-sulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine dihydrochloride), an inhibitor of both cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinases and protein kinase C (PKC). However, more specific inhibitors of cAMP-dependent protein kinases, including N-[( 2-methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide dihydrochloride (H8) and N-(2-gua-nidinoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide (HA-1004), had little to no effect on the in vitro generation of ADR activity. Furthermore, membranes from MOLT-4 cells depleted of PKC by long-term exposure (24 h) to phorbol esters and calcium ionophores were unable to induce ADR activity in resting peripheral blood lymphocytes extracts. The results of these studies suggest 1) ADR activity is present in resting cell cytoplasm in an inactive or precursor form; and 2) ADR activity can be induced in this resting cytoplasm through a mechanism involving a membrane-associated protein kinase, possibly PKC. The ability of alkaline phosphatase to deplete the activity of preformed ADR suggests the possibility that ADR itself is phosphoprotein.

We have shown that a mutant derivative of Chinese hamster ovary CHO-K1 cells, ADR-5, which shows hypersensitivity to topoisomerase II (topo II)-inhibitory drugs, is cross-sensitive to the site-selective cyclic AMP analogue 8-chloro-cyclic AMP. We tested the hypothesis that overexpression of the type I alpha regulatory subunit of protein kinase A may represent a common element conferring hypersensitivity to both topo II inhibitors and 8-chloro-cyclic AMP in ADR-5 cells. We have demonstrated that ADR-5 cells overexpress RI alpha protein, compared to parental CHO-K1 cells. Moreover, retroviral vector-mediated transfer of the RI alpha gene into CHO-K1 cells was able to confer a drug-hypersensitive phenotype similar to that exhibited by ADR-5 cells. Analysis of topo II protein levels and activity revealed no differences between parental and infected cells, suggesting that protein kinase A may be involved in the downstream processing of topo II-mediated events.

Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) has been shown to be a potent mitogen and a promoter of angiogenesis. It has been hypothesized that the expression of the bFGF gene may be induced by stress of various types. To test that hypothesis, we investigated the expression of the bFGF gene during heat treatment in adriamycin-resistant (MCF-7/ADR) and -sensitive (MCF-7) human breast carcinoma cells. Under normal growth conditions, the bFGF mRNA was detected in MCF-7/ADR cells, while it was not detectable in MCF-7 cells by Northern blot analysis. During heating at 41 degrees C, the level of bFGF mRNA increased in MCF-7/ADR cells and the message became detectable in the MCF-7 cell line. However, after continuous heating at 41 degrees C for 24 h, the bFGF mRNA level decreased to control level in MCF-7/ADR cells. Interestingly, simultaneous treatment with heat and 60 micrograms/ml H-7 (1-(isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine, a potent PKC inhibitor) decreased the level of bFGF mRNA in MCF-7/ADR cells. These results suggest that a protein kinase, likely PKC, is involved in the transcriptional regulation of the heat-enhanced bFGF gene expression in human breast carcinoma cells. Although no heat shock element can be identified in the promoter of the bFGF gene, we observed that the AP-1 binding activity to a TPA responsive element (TRE)-like sequence in the promoter of bFGF gene was enhanced by heat, as tested by mobility shift assay. Antibody developed against the c-Jun and c-Fos proteins inhibited the AP-1 binding activity to TRE. Therefore, the AP-1 complex appears to be responsible for the heat-enhanced binding to the TRE-like motif of the bFGF gene. Furthermore, the increased AP-1 binding activity does not require new protein synthesis but activation of the preexisting c-Jun proteins.

Recent studies suggest that multidrug resistance of HL60/ADR cells is related to an overexpression of the MRP (multidrug resistance associated protein) gene which encodes a 190-kDa ATP-binding membrane glycoprotein. In the present study we have further characterized P190 and have examined phosphorylation properties of the protein. The results demonstrate that P190 is highly phosphorylated and that the phosphate groups are metabolically active and undergo cycles of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation in the cell. Serine is the single amino acid phosphorylated in P190 and the phosphate groups are contained in nine tryptic peptides. Experiments have also been conducted to analyze the effect of various protein kinase inhibitors on phosphorylation levels of P190. The results show that H-7, staurosporine, and chelerythrine can reduce the phosphorylation of this protein. In the presence of both H-7 (200 microM) and staurosporine (200 nM) the phosphorylation of P190 is completely blocked. It has also been found that in the presence of these agents there is a major increase in drug accumulation and concomitant inhibition in drug efflux of resistant cells. These results therefore suggest the possibility that certain phosphate groups of protein P190 play an important role in modulating drug accumulation in resistant cells.

Inhibition by staurosporine derivatives of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (A-kinase) and protein kinase C (C-kinase), and drug resistance has been investigated. The substitution of an acetyl or an ethoxycarbonyl group for the amine N-ethoxycarbonyl-7-oxostaurosporine moiety on the tetrahydropyran ring of staurosporine decreased inhibition of both protein kinases, but increased selectivity for C-kinase by further modification of the lactam moiety to the imide (NA-382). The activities of SF-2370 on protein kinases were decreased by decarboxylation and hydroxyalkylation. These staurosporine derivatives enhanced accumulation of vinblastine in adriamycin-resistant P388 (P388/ADR) cells in a dose-dependent manner. The potency for the drug accumulation of these compounds was correlated with their inhibitory activity on the drug efflux, but was not correlated with their activity on protein kinases. Staurosporine and NA-382, with high potency for vinblastine accumulation, inhibited the photolabelling of [3H]azidopine on 140 kDa P-glycoprotein in the plasma membrane. The tetrahydrofuran compounds and NA-357, which had low potency for the drug accumulation, hardly interacted with azidopine on P-glycoprotein. Most of these compounds were highly cytotoxic by themselves, and only NA-382 was less cytotoxic among them and completely reversed the vinblastine-resistance of P388/ADR cells at a non-cytotoxic concentration. These results suggest that staurosporine derivatives can enhance drug accumulation and inhibit drug resistance through their direct action on the P-glycoprotein.

The effects of a newly synthesized compound, N-ethoxycarbonyl-7-oxo-staurosporine (NA-382), on multidrug resistance in tumor cells were investigated. Protein kinase-inhibitory activity of NA-382 was lower but more selective to Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase than that of staurosporine. NA-382 at noncytotoxic concentrations effectively reversed in vitro multidrug resistance of Adriamycin-resistant P388 (P388/ADR) cells, without influencing the drug sensitivity of sensitive P388 cells. NA-382 inhibited extrusion of vinblastine (VBL) and increased intracellular accumulation of VBL, more in P388/ADR cells than in sensitive P388 cells, with higher potency than staurosporine. This compound also reduced VBL resistance of other multidrug-resistant cell lines, AH66 and K562/ADR, by inhibiting VBL efflux and promoting VBL accumulation. NA-382 also dose dependently potentiated the effects of VBL and Adriamycin in P388/ADR-bearing mice. The toxicity of staurosporine was too high to use the combination with VBL in vitro and in vivo. NA-382 accumulated VBL in P388/ADR cells even after desensitization of Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase by treatment with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and 18 h, while being suppressed by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate added simultaneously or shortly before NA-382. Both staurosporine and NA-382 inhibited the photolabeling of [3H]azidopine on M(r) 140,000 P-glycoprotein in the plasma membrane from P388/ADR cells. These results indicate that this new staurosporine analogue, NA-382, reverses multidrug resistance by directly inhibiting the drug binding to P-glycoprotein, but not by Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase inhibitory action.

The effects of eight isoquinolinesulphonamide compounds on resistance to vinblastine in adriamycin-resistant mouse leukaemia cells (P388/ADR) which overexpress the relative molecular weight (M(r)) 140 kDa P-glycoprotein in the plasma membrane were investigated. N-[2-(Methylamino)ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulphonamide (H-8) and N-(2-aminoethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulphonamide (H-9) did not reverse vinblastine resistance. N-[2-[N-[3-(4-Chlorophenyl)-2-propenyl]amino] ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulphonamide (H-86) and N-[2-[N-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-methyl-2-propenyl] amino]ethyl]-5-isoquinolinesulphonamide (H-87) caused accumulation of intracellular vinblastine and inhibition of vinblastine efflux from the cells and reversed the resistance. Addition of an aminoethyl group to the nitrogen atom of the sulphonamide group (W-66) or a formyl group at the terminal amino group (H-85) of H-86 reduced those activities. Conversion of the chlorophenyl group of H-87 to pyridinyl (H-31) or furanyl (H-34) markedly decreased activities against the drug resistance. The activity against vinblastine accumulation closely correlated with the apparent partition coefficient of compounds. These compounds dose-dependently inhibited photoaffinity labelling of a photosensitive analogue of vinblastine, N-(p-azido-(3-[125I)salicyl)-N'-beta-aminoethyl-vindesine ([125I]NASV), and there was a good correlation between inhibition of [125I]NASV-photolabelling and hydrophobicity. Although these isoquinolinesulphonamides inhibited protein kinase A with different magnitudes, this activity did not correlate with the effect on the drug resistance. These results indicate that isoquinolinesulphonamide compounds with a hydrophobic group interact with antitumour drugs on P-glycoprotein and reverse multidrug resistance without involvement of their activity on protein kinase A.

The possible involvement of PKC in the regulation of heat shock genes expression was investigated with three isoquinolinesulfonamide derivatives (H-7, H-8, and HA1004) in DUT-145, MCF-7, and MCF-7/ADR cells. The drug was added 1 hr before and during heating at 41 degrees C. Northern blots show that the levels of HSP70 and HSP28 mRNA increased rapidly and reached maximal values within 4-8 hr and 8-12 hr, respectively. H-7 and H-8 which are potent PKC inhibitors selectively suppressed the accumulation of HSP70 mRNA as well as the synthesis of HSP70. In contrast, HA1004 which is a potent PKA inhibitor but a weak PKC inhibitor did not affect HSP70 gene expression. These results suggest that PKC rather than PKA plays an important role in the regulation of heat shock gene expression.
