Abstract 4840: 2-Deoxy-D-glucose induces autophagy through endoplasmic reticulum stress rather than by lowering ATP
Cancer Research(2010)
摘要
Based on emerging evidence that oncogenes direct increased glucose metabolism in tumor cells, the glycolytic inhibitor, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) appears to be a promising drug to selectively target cancer cells. 2-DG however, not only blocks glycolysis and reduces cellular ATP production but also interferes with N-linked glycosylation, thereby inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR). Both bioenergetic challenge and ER stress/UPR have been shown to activate autophagy, a bulk cellular degradation process that plays either a pro- or anti-death role. This led us to investigate the following, 1) which pathway that 2-DG interferes with is responsible for stimulating autophagy, and 2) the role of autophagy in modulating 2-DG-induced cellular responses and toxicity. In four cancer cell lines (1420, MDA-MB-435, SKBR3 and T98G) we find that 2-DG upregulates autophagy (LC3B II), increases the ER stress/UPR markers, Grp78 and CHOP, and lowers ATP levels. Addition of exogenous mannose reverses 2-DG-induced autophagy and expression of GRP78 and CHOP but does not recover the lowered levels of ATP. Additionally, when autophagy is either blocked or enhanced by 3-methyladenine (3-MA) or rapamycin, respectively, 3-MA increases whereas rapamycin reduces cancer cell sensitivity to 2-DG. In support of these results, knock down of autophagy-related gene 7 (Atg7) with small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) increases sensitivity to 2-DG in 1420 cells, which correlates with increases in the ER stress/UPR markers as well as the apoptotic marker, cleaved caspase 3. Overall, these results indicate that the major mechanism by which 2-DG stimulates autophagy is through ER stress/UPR, and autophagy protects cells from 2-DG-induced toxicity through relief of ER stress. Thus, combining autophagy inhibitors with 2-DG may be useful clinically. Citation Format: {Authors}. {Abstract title} [abstract].
