PURPOSE: Hepatoblastoma (HB) has a poor prognosis in advanced stages. The aim of this study was to enhance effectiveness of chemotherapy with antineoplastic kinase inhibitors.
METHODS: Viability was monitored in HB cells (HUH6, HepT1) in monolayer and spheroid cultures treated with kinase inhibitors VX-680, Wee1-InhibitorII, and SU11274 alone or in combination with cisplatin (CDDP) using MTT assays. Apoptosis was revealed by Caspase-3 assay. Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses were performed to determine histone H3 phosphorylation.
RESULTS: Among the kinase inhibitors strongest anti-proliferative effect on HB cells was documented for VX-680. HUH6 cells responded more sensitively to the Aurora kinase inhibitor as HepT1 cells (IC(50) 8 and 16.6 μM, respectively). While VX-680 and CDDP showed no additive effects, the combination of VX-680 and histone deacetylase inhibitor SAHA had a synergistic effect on the proliferation of HUH6 cells. The inhibition with VX-680 led to reduced histone H3 phosphorylation, to an increase of apoptotic cells, and to morphological changes such as vacuolization and swelling of the cells and nuclei.
CONCLUSION: The data provide evidence that VX-680 might improve treatment results in HB with increased Aurora kinase activity by inhibiting cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis.
