Abstract | Background and Aim of Study Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is
one of the leading causes of cancer deaths. Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI)
like erlotinib is commonly used as a treatment regimen since Epidermal Growth
Factor Receptor (EGFR) is frequently deregulated in NSCLC. Autophagy is a
regulated cellular catabolic process in response to deprivation of nutrients or
growth factors. This study aims to investigate whether autophagy confers
acquired resistance in NSCLC to erlotinib treatment in NSCLC.
Methods Two NSCLC cell lines (HCC827 and HCC4006) with EGFR mutations
(exon 19 deletions) were selected. Proliferation (MTT) assay and
annexin-V binding assay were performed to determine cell proliferation and
cell death upon erlotinib treatment. Autophagy induction was monitored by
ATG-5/ATG12 conjugation, p62 degradation and conversion of LC3I to LC3II
using Western blot. Increase in Acidic Vesicular Organelle (AVO) formation
was determined by acridine orange staining. Autophagy inhibitor (chloroquine)
and RNA interference were used to study the effect of erlotinib-induced
autophagy.
Results MTT confi rmed that both cell lines were sensitive to erlotinib (IC50 <
0.5 μM). Erlotinib treatment increased LC3II expression, ATG-5/ATG12 conjugation,
formation of AVO and p62 degradation, compatible with induction of
autophagy. Combination of 10 μM chloroquine (autophagy inhibitor) with
0.2 μM erlotinib increased apoptotic events compared to erlotinib or chloroquine
alone (HCC827: 52.3 ± 2.8% vs 21.2 ± 4.2% vs 13.0 ± 2.5%, p < 0.01;
HCC4006: 49.3 ± 4.8% vs 9.4 ± 2.4% vs 9.0 ± 1.8%, p < 0.01; chloroquine +
erlotinib vs erlotinib vs chloroquine respectively). Atg5 and beclin 1 knockdown
with siRNA resulted in signifi cant autophagy inhibition. Apoptotic cell death in
erlotinib combined with ATG-silencing (51.8 ± 1.9%) or beclin-silencing (53.4
± 2.0%) was increased comparing with erlotinib alone (22.8 ± 3.8%) (p < 0.01),
ATG-silencing alone (7.3 ± 4.4%, p = 8.71576E-05) or beclin-silencing alone
(10.3 ± 4.6%, p < 0.01) in HCC827 cells. Similarly, in HCC4006, apoptotic cell
death was signifi cantly enhanced in erlotinib combined with ATG-silencing
(53.1 ± 3.4%) or beclin-silencing (61.9 ± 5.1%), comparing with erlotinib alone
(27.4 ± 8.6%, p < 0.01), ATG-silencing alone (6 ± 2.7%, p < 0.01) or beclinsilencing
alone (11.5 ± 4.3%, p < 0.01).
Conclusions Erlotinib can induce both apoptosis and autophagy in EGFR
mutated (exon 19 del) NSCLC cell lines. Inhibition of autophagy with chloroquine
or siRNA can enhance erlotinib-induced cell death. Autophagy may
serve as a protective mechanism for NSCLC upon treatment with erlotinib. |
