چکیده انگلیسی
Effective treatments for advanced prostate cancer are much needed. Toward this goal, we show apoptosis and impaired long-term survival of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (PC3 and PC3 derivatives) co-treated with the cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor roscovitine and an AKT inhibitor (LY294002 or API-2). Apoptosis of PC3 cells by the drug combination required caspase-9 but not caspase-8 activity and thus is mitochondria-dependent. Roscovitine reduced amounts of the caspase inhibitor XIAP, and API-2 increased amounts of the BH3-only protein Bim. PC3 cells apoptosed when co-treated with API-2 and either cdk9 siRNA, dominant-negative cdk9, or the cdk9 inhibitor DRB; they did not apoptose when co-treated with API-2 and XIAP siRNA. Bax accumulated in mitochondria in response to API-2, whereas release of cytochrome c from mitochondria required both API-2 and roscovitine. We suggest that roscovitine elicits events that activate Bax once it translocates to mitochondria and that inactivation of cdk9 signals these events and the down-regulation of XIAP. Collectively, our data show apoptosis of prostate cancer cells by a drug combination and identify Bax activation as a basis of cooperation.
