Selonsertib (GS-4997), an ASK1 inhibitor, antagonizes multidrug resistance in ABCB1- and ABCG2-overexpressing cancer cells.
Cancer Letters 2019 January
Overexpression of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters is one of the most important mechanisms responsible for the development of multidrug resistance (MDR). Selonsertib, a serine/threonine kinase inhibitor, targets apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) and is now in phase III clinical trial for the treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). In this study, we investigated whether selonsertib could reverse MDR-mediated by ABC transporters, including ABCB1, ABCG2, ABCC1 and ABCC10. The results showed that selonsertib significantly reversed ABCB1- and ABCG2-mediated MDR, but not MDR-mediated by ABCC1 or ABCC10. Mechanism studies indicated that the reversal effect of selonsertib was related to the attenuation of the efflux activity of ABCB1 and ABCG2 transporters, without the protein level decrease or change in the subcellular localization of ABCB1 or ABCG2. Selonsertib stimulated the ATPase activity of ABCB1 and ABCG2 in a concentration-dependent manner, and in silico docking study showed selonsertib could interact with the substrate-binding sites of both ABCB1 and ABCG2. This study provides a clue into a novel treatment strategy, which includes a combination of selonsertib with antineoplastic drugs to attenuate MDR-mediated by ABCB1 or ABCG2 in cancer cells overexpressing these transporters.
