| Resumo: | Current standard adjuvant therapy of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) using temozolomide (TMZ) frequently fails due to therapy resistance. Thus, novel therapeutic approaches are highly demanded. We tested the therapeutic efficacy of the second-generation XPO1 inhibitor Eltanexor using assays for cell viability and apoptosis in GBM cell lines and GBM stem-like cells. For most GBM-derived cells, IC50 concentrations for Eltanexor were below 100 nM. In correlation with reduced cell viability, apoptosis rates were significantly increased. GBM stem-like cells presented a combinatorial effect of Eltanexor with TMZ on cell viability. Furthermore, pretreatment of GBM cell lines with Eltanexor significantly enhanced radiosensitivity in vitro. To explore the mechanism of apoptosis induction by Eltanexor, TP53-dependent genes were analyzed at the mRNA and protein level. Eltanexor caused induction of TP53-related genes, TP53i3, PUMA, CDKN1A, and PML on both mRNA and protein level. Immunofluorescence of GBM cell lines treated with Eltanexor revealed a strong accumulation of CDKN1A, and, to a lesser extent, of p53 and Tp53i3 in cell nuclei as a plausible mechanism for Eltanexor-induced apoptosis. From these data, we conclude that monotherapy with Eltanexor effectively induces apoptosis in GBM cells and can be combined with current adjuvant therapies to provide a more effective therapy of GBM. |
