摘要
Heat shock proteins (HSPs), are molecular chaperones that assist the proper folding of nascent proteins. This study aims to evaluate the antitumour effects of the hsp90 inhibitor NVP-AUY922 in melanoma, both invitro and invivo. Our results show that NVP-AUY922 inhibits melanoma cell growth invitro, with down regulation of multiple signalling pathways involved in melanoma progression such as NF-?B and MAPK/ERK. However, NVP-AUY922 was unable to limit tumour growth invivo. Cotreatment of A375M xenografts with NVP-AUY922 and PFT-, a dual inhibitor of both hsp70 and autophagy, induced a synergistic increase of cell death invitro, and delayed tumour formation in A375M xenografts. PFT- depleted cells from the reduced form of glutathione (GSH) and increased oxidative stress. The oxidative stress induced by PFT- further enhanced NVP-AUY922-induced cytotoxic effects. These data suggest a potential therapeutic role for NVP-AUY922 used in combination with PFT-, in melanoma.
