Expression of collateral sensitivity to cisplatin, methotrexate, and fluorouracil in a human ovarian carcinoma cell line following exposure to fractionated x-irradiation in vitro.

Examples of collateral sensitivity, even in experimental tumor systems, remain few. Preliminary data from this laboratory indicated that certain tumor cells expressed increased sensitivity to cisplatin after exposure in vitro to x-irradiation. To further clarify whether the type of fractionated radiation procedure used clinically can induce hypersensitivities to certain antitumor drugs we have pre-exposed the human ovarian carcinoma cell line JA-T/P derived from a tumor from an untreated patient to fractionated x-irradiation (total dose 50 Gy) in vitro. The resultant subline JA-T/DXR-10 expressed collateral sensitivity to cisplatin (CDDP), methotrexate (MTX) and fluorouracil (5-FU), but not to acute x-irradiation. Hypersensitivity to CDDP was associated with decreased activity of DNA polymerase beta (3.5-fold, P less than .01), but unaltered glutathione metabolism. Pre-incubation with cyclosporin A or with 3-aminobenzamide significantly enhanced (twofold, P less than .01) CDDP-induced cytotoxicity in JA-T/P cells, but not in the DXR-10 subline. Consistent with MTX hypersensitivity dihydrofolate reductase activity was significantly decreased (2.9-fold, P less than .01). Despite collateral sensitivity to 5-FU, however, thymidylate synthase activity was increased (twofold, P less than .05) suggesting alternative mechanisms for 5-FU-induced cytotoxicity in these JA-T/DXR-10 cells. These data demonstrate that DNA repair and associated reduced folate metabolism can be modified not only by drugs but also by fractionated x-irradiation.

Collateral sensitivity of a methotrexate-resistant L1210 cell line to the vinca alkaloids.

L1210 mouse leukaemia cell lines showing a 20,000-fold differential sensitivity to methotrexate have been shown to exhibit some collateral sensitivity to at least two of the vinca alkaloids, vinblastine and vindesine. Vinblastine is the more cytotoxic for both cell lines. The extent of the collateral sensitivity decreases in the order vindesine greater than vinblastine greater than vincristine. Total cellular uptake studies with radiolabelled methotrexate showed only a two- to three-fold greater incorporation in the sensitive line. On the other hand, a two-fold greater incorporation of labelled vincristine occurred in the resistant line. No significant difference in the uptake occurred following labelled vinblastine treatment by the two cell lines. It is unlikely that differences in uptake account for the altered drug responses observed in the two cell lines.

Mechanisms of collateral sensitivity to fluorouracil of a cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II)-resistant human non-small lung cancer cell line.

A cisplatin(CDDP)-resistant subline of a human lung cancer cell line, PC-7/CDDP, was 4.7-fold more resistant to CDDP than the parent line in a colony-forming assay. The sensitivity of this cell line to anthracyclines, vinca-alkaloid, etoposide, mitomycin C, and bleomycin was similar to that of the parental line, PC-7. However, PC-7/CDDP exhibited 4-fold higher sensitivity to fluorouracil (FUra). Possible mechanisms associated with the collateral sensitivity to FUra were studied in PC-7/CDDP cells. The sensitivity of both cell lines to FUra did not correlate with the effect of FUra on RNA. On the other hand, FUra induced a greater reduction in dTTP pools and more single strand breaks in PC-7/CDDP than in PC-7 cells. These results suggest that the pathway for de novo deoxyribonucleotide synthesis may be a target for FUra in PC-7/CDDP cells. However, inhibition of thymidylate synthase after FUra treatment did not correlate with the DNA-directed activity of FUra. Based on the above findings, the decreased salvage synthesis of dTTP was considered a possible mechanism of the greater reduction of dTTP pools in PC-7/CDDP cells. However, the activity of dThd kinase was the same in both cell lines. In the presence of physiological concentrations of exogenous dThd in the serum, uptake of dThd was less in PC-7/CDDP cells than that in PC-7 cells. Our data suggest that FUra-induced cytotoxicity in PC-7/CDDP cells is associated with the inhibition of dTTP synthesis and that the decreased uptake of dThd is a possible mechanism of the collateral sensitivity to FUra in PC-7/CDDP cells.

Collateral sensitivity to radiation and cis-platinum in a multidrug-resistant human leukemia cell line.

Although collateral sensitivity to gamma radiation has previously been described in multidrug-resistant tumor cell lines, we describe here a multidrug-resistant human T-cell acute lymphatic leukemia cell line, L100, which displayed increased sensitivity to both gamma radiation and cis-platinum. Cis-platinum cytotoxicity of parental L0 cells and L100 cells was enhanced, whereas radiation sensitivity of L0 and L100 cells was unaltered by glutathione depletion. These results indicate that disparate mechanisms are operative in the collateral sensitivity of L100 cells to gamma radiation and cis-platinum.

Modification and inheritance of pleiotropic cross resistance and collateral sensitivity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

A meiotic segregant (oliPR1) was isolated with a phenotype of multiple cross resistance and collateral sensitivity. Strain oliPR1 has increased sensitivity to ethidium bromide, dequalinium chloride, acriflavin, paromomycin and neomycin, and increased resistance to oligomycin, rutamycin, venturicidin, triethyltin bromide, antimycin, carbonylcynamide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone, tetra-N-butylammonium bromide, dibenzyldimethylammonium chloride, triphenylmethlphosphonium bromide, chloramphenicol, carbomycin, tetracycline, triton X-165 and cycloheximide. Single gene inheritance of the cross resistance and collateral sensitivity was shown by 2:2 parental ditype segregation and reversion of the complete phenotype by a spontaneous revertant. The locus conferring the oliPR1 phenotype was mapped 11.7 units from an unspecified centromere. Antibiotic resistance showed incomplete dominance, with the level of hybrid resistance dependent upon the inhibitor tested. Resistant diploids that produced four resistant ascospores were the result of mitotic recombination prior to meiosis. A partial revertant phenotype (sensitive to all inhibitors except oligomycin, antimycin and carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone) was shown to be due to a single nuclear gene causing partial suppression of oliPR1. Anaerobic pretreatment, 37degrees and 0.5 MKC1 were observed to reduce the growth of oliPR1 when challenged with seven diverse inhibitors (antimycin, carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone,-chloramphenicol, cycloheximide, oligomycin, triethyltin bromide, and triphenylmethylphosphonium bromide). Resistance to cycloheximide was not altered by the [rho--] state. A revertant of oliPR1 (sensitive to the above inhibitors but resistant to ethidium bromide, paromycin and neomycin) showed anaerobic and temperature sensitization to ethidium bromide, paromomycin and neomycin. Continuous monitoring of oxygen uptake by the revertant afteranaerobic pretreatment revealed that anaerbiosis sensitized respiratory adaptation of the revertant to neomycin. It is proposed that oliPR1 is a mutation resulting in the alteration of plasma membrane permeability to many diverse inhibitors.

Potential of continuous tumour cell lines for establishing patterns of cross-resistance and collateral sensitivity in vitro.

The potential value of continuous tumour cell lines for establishing in vitro patterns of cross-resistance and collateral sensitivity has been examined. Results are presented for a series of sublines of the murine L5178Y lymphoma in which resistance has been induced in vitro by repeated exposure to the following antitumour drugs: methotrexate, 5-fluorouracil, adriamycin, vincristine and vindesine. A comparison has also been made between data derived from a murine (L5178Y) and a human tumour (LoVo) cell line, derived from a colon carcinoma, in which 5-fluorouracil resistance has been induced. Preliminary results suggest that the human tumour model may be more relevant clinically. It has also been demonstrated that prior exposure to fractionated X-irradiation in vitro can result in the expression of resistance or collateral sensitivity, depending on the drug evaluated. Furthermore, the expression of cross-resistance to certain drugs appears to differ, depending on the method used to induce or select for resistance in vitro. If confirmed, these latter observations may have major clinical implications for the combined modality approach to cancer treatment.

Collateral sensitivity between methylene dimethane sulfonate and halogenated methotrexate derivatives in the Yoshida sarcoma in vivo and in vitro.

A Yoshida lymphosarcoma line (YMDR8) resistant to methylene dimethane sulfonate (MDMS) showed collateral sensitivity against three halogenated methotrexates: 3'-bromomethotrexate (NSC-98580), 3'-bromo-5'-chloromethotrexate (NSC-98579), and 3',5'-dichloromethotrexate (NSC-29630); however, it was cross-resistant to methotrexate itself. Two other independently derived MDMS-resistant cell lines, YMDR7 and YMDR9, also demonstrated collateral sensitivity against 3'-bromomethotrexate, but with the latter, the origin of the "induced" sensitivity probably was not due to interference with antigenic or oncogenic properties of the cell line. When these agents were used in vivo (in Wistar rats) and in vitro, subpopulation changes within the tumor lines could be observed. The possible importance of this parameter in the development of such sensitivity is discussed.

Some physiological alteration associated with pleiotropic cross resistance and collateral sensitivity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

A mutant strain (2-20) isolated by growth on medium containing oligomycin and cycloheximide was also found to be cross resistant to antimyicn, cerulenin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline, triethyltin and triphenylmethylphosphonium bromide, but collaterally sensitive to dequalinium chloride, gentamycin, neomycin, paromomycin and thiolutin. Growth of 2-20, compared to the parental strain and 2 complete revertants, under a variety of environmental conditions revealed that strain 2-20 had an enhanced sensitivity to increased osmolality, elevated pH, and high temperature; in addition, strain 2-20 was unable to polymerize aminoimidazole ribotide at 37 degrees C as shown by the failure to develop a red colony in the presence of ade 2. Four complex solid media (glucose--KCI, galactose, ethanol, ethanol--KCI, Table 1) unable to sustain the growth of strain 2-20 were arbitrarily chosen to monitor cellular growth under different physiological conditions. Tetrad analysis indicated that the complex phenotype (cross resistance, collateral sensitivity, inablity to polymerize aminoimidazole ribotide, absence of growth under adverse physiological conditions) was inherited by an allele of a locus previously shown to result in a permeability barrier of the plasma membrane to chloramphenicol. 582 of 640 subclones used to isolate revertants of 2-20, under four different physiological conditions, were observed to produce a complete revertant of the complex phenotype. It is proposed that the pleiotropic phenotype could result from an alteration of the plasma membrane and mitochondrial inner membrane by a single nuclear gene mutation.

Pleiotropic phenotype of colchicine-resistant CHO cells: cross-resistance and collateral sensitivity.

Colchicine resistant (CHR) mutants of CHO cells with reduced permeability to colchicine display extensive cross-resistance to a number of apparently unrelated compounds including puromycin, daunomycin, emetine, ethidium bromide and gramicidin D. A positive correlation was observed between the level of cross-resistance and the relative hydrophobicity of these compounds. The mutants also showed increased (collateral) sensitivity to local anaesthetics (procaine, tetracaine, xylocaine and propanolol), steroid hormones (1-dehydrotestosterone, corticosterone and 5beta-pregnan-3,20-dione) and some Triton X compounds. In general, the degree of the pleiotropic response (cross-resistance or collateral sensitivity) correlated with the degree of colchicine resistance in mutant lines. These results are consistent with the pleiotropic phenotype being the result of the same mutation(s) which confer colchicine resistance and support a model for resistance in which the reduced permeability is assumed to be the result of an alteration in the modulation of the fluidity of the surface membrane.

Collateral sensitivity of 6-mercaptopurine-resistant sublines of P388 and L1210 leukemia to the new purine antagonists, 5-carbamoyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl piperonylate and 4-carbamoylimidazolium 5-olate.

Two new purine antagonists, 5-carbamoyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl piperonylate (SL-1250) and 4-carbamoylimidazolium 5-olate (SM-108), were investigated for their antitumor activities against 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP)-resistant sublines of P388 and L1210 leukemia. It was found that both resistant sublines exhibited collateral sensitivity instead of cross-resistance to these new antipurine drugs. Since more potent cytotoxic activities of these drugs against 6-MP-resistant cells were observed even in vivo cell culture systems, this collateral sensitivity was proved on a cellular basis. Biochemical studies revealed that 6-MP-resistant sublines of both P388 and L1210 leukemia are deficient in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase activity. In these cells, not only the activation of 6-MP to its nucleotide but also the synthesis of guanosine 5'-monophosphate via the salvage pathway seems to be severely restricted. However, SL-1250 and SM-108 can be activated to their nucleotide even in these 6-MP-resistant cells because the activation of these compounds is proceeded by adenine phosphoribosyltransferase. In conclusion, suppression of de novo purine synthesis with SL-1250 and SM-108 seems to be a very efficient means of killing these 6-MP-resistant cells, which lack a salvage pathway for guanosine 5'-monophosphate.

Collateral sensitivity to nitrosoureas in multidrug-resistant cells selected with verapamil.

We have examined the effects of the nitrosoureas, streptozotocin (STZ) and 1,3-bis(chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU), on a human multiple myeloma cell line, RPMI 8226, and its drug-resistant variants. Cell lines selected for doxorubicin (DOX) resistance alone displayed a STZ and BCNU cytotoxicity profile similar to that of the parent cell line. In contrast, two of the drug-resistant variants selected with DOX plus verapamil, an agent which inhibits P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance, displayed a collateral sensitivity to STZ and BCNU. Verapamil was included in the selection protocol because it has been shown to inhibit the P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance phenotype and is now in clinical trials as a chemosensitizing agent. The collateral sensitivity to these nitrosoureas seen in the DOX plus verapamil-selected cell lines is due to the functional loss of a DNA repair molecule, O6-Methylguanine DNA methyltransferase (MGMT). The functional loss of MGMT is secondary to the loss of MGMT gene expression. The loss of MGMT gene expression is not due to loss or gross rearrangement of the MGMT-coding region. If this selection pressure applied in vitro reflects the in vivo situation, then new chemotherapeutic strategies may be devised to exploit this phenomenon. These cell lines will serve as useful models for delineating mechanisms which govern MGMT expression.

Collateral sensitivity to N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartic acid in a line of P388 leukemia cells selected for resistance to L-(alpha S, 5S)-alpha-amino-3- chloro-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazoleacetic acid (acivicin).

Administration of N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartic acid (PALA) is ineffective in treating mice bearing the parent P388 leukemia line; however, such treatment becomes highly effective when a cell line, P388/ACIA, derived from P388/0 was selected for resistance to another antimetabolite, acivicin. The observed phenomenon of collateral sensitivity is associated with a significantly higher inhibition of the specific activity of carbamyl phosphate synthetase II, pyrimidine nucleoside kinases, adenine phosphoribosyl transferase, and hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase in the PALA-sensitive line, P388/ACIA. Twenty-four hr following administration of PALA, 200 mg/kg, the 10% lethal dose i.p. to tumor-bearing mice, the intracellular concentrations of uridine triphosphate and cytidine triphosphate were decreased in the P388/ACIA, PALA-sensitive cells, whereas no significant change in the corresponding nucleotide pool sizes was observed in P388/0, PALA-resistant line. Moreover, the purine nucleotide pool demonstrated a significant expansion of adenosine triphosphate and guanosine triphosphate only in the P388/ACIA line following a similar treatment with PALA. It is proposed that the imbalance in the generation of pyrimidine and purine nucleoside triphosphate pools may explain the observed collateral sensitivity to PALA in P388/ACIA leukemia line.

Alteration of type II regulatory subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in human cisplatin-resistant cells as a basis of collateral sensitivity to 8-chloro-cAMP.

A cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) analogue, 8-chloro-cAMP (8-Cl-cAMP), had a collateral growth-inhibitory effect on a cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (CDDP)-resistant human cancer cell lines (PC-14/CDDP). The non-selective analogues dibutyryl-cAMP, 8-bromo-cAMP and forskolin, which are cAMP agonists, showed far less cytotoxicity than 8-Cl-cAMP in both cell lines. There was no significant difference in cAMP content between PC-14 and PC-14/CDDP. Because 8-Cl-cAMP has been shown to bind selectively to the site I receptor of the type II regulatory subunit (RII) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase, we determined the level of expression of regulatory subunits in PC-14 and PC-14/CDDP cells by photoaffinity labeling. PC-14/CDDP cells had a higher RII level, low site I receptor of type I regulatory subunit (RI) level, and a lower RI/RII ratio than the parental PC-14 cells. Exposure to 8-Cl-cAMP increased the RI and RII level in PC-14/CDDP cells in dose- and time-dependent manners. On the other hand, in parental PC-14 cells, RII was not detected and the levels of RI and RII were not increased by exposure to 8-Cl-cAMP. These results suggested that the change in RI and/or RII levels caused by 8-Cl-cAMP was correlated with 8-Cl-cAMP-induced growth inhibition and that the collateral sensitivity to 8-Cl-cAMP in CDDP-resistant cells was due to the increased RII level. Our results suggest that 8-Cl-cAMP can be used in combination with CDDP and that measurement of RI and RII levels and/or the RI/RII ratio is a useful tool to predict CDDP sensitivity.

Overcoming of vincristine resistance in L1210/VCR cells by several corticosteroids. Collateral sensitivity of resistant cells.

Five corticosteroids were tested to determine whether they are able to overcome the multidrug resistance of vincristine resistant mouse leukemia cells L1210/VCR. The most effective in reversing multidrug resistance were cortisone and dexamethasone, less effective as reversing agents were 11-deoxycorticosterone, 1-dehydrocortisone and hydrocortisone. By testing of collateral sensitivity of vincristine resistant cell line to these corticosteroids it was found that only 11-deoxycorticosterone and dexamethasone were toxic to multidrug resistant cells at doses much lower than required for toxicity to the drug-sensitive L1210/S cells. Using thin layer chromatography the polarity of tested corticosteroids was estimated, and good correlation was found between polarity of corticosteroids and their increased toxicity to vincristine resistant cells.

Biochemical correlates of responsiveness and collateral sensitivity of some methotrexate-resistant murine tumors to the lipophilic antifolate, metoprine.

The M5076 murine "ovarian" tumor which is naturally refractive to methotrexate was found to be highly responsive to the lipophilic antifolate, metoprine. M5076 cells were markedly deficient in mediated entry of methotrexate. This was in contrast to the L1210 leukemia, a tumor highly responsive to methotrexate but poorly responsive to metoprine. Two L1210 leukemia sublines, with acquired resistance to methotrexate by virtue of a deficiency in mediated entry of drug similar to that seen for M5076 cells, were found to be collaterally sensitive to metoprine. The insensitivity to methotrexate of the M5076 tumor and the two L1210 sublines is associated with low saturability (high Km) and reduced capacity (low Vmax) for mediated influx of drug. 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate, the major circulating folate in blood but not metoprine, shares this mediated route for entry. Therefore, a relatively low level of accumulation of this natural folate in these methotrexate-resistant tumors, in the face of a metoprine-induced blockade at the level of dihydrofolate reductase, probably accounts for the high sensitivity of these tumors to this lipophilic agent. Evidence for this notion was derived during transport and growth experiments in vitro using 5-formyltetrahydrofolate as a model folate coenzyme. The value for influx Vmax of this folate compound in a transport-deficient methotrexate-resistant subline compared to the parental L1210 was reduced to the same extent as that shown for methotrexate. Growth of this resistant L1210 subline showed a greater requirement for this model compound than did the parental line. Also, the concentration necessary for 50% inhibition by metoprine in the presence of this reduced folate was lower in the resistant subline. Inhibition of each cell line by metoprine, on the other hand, was the same when folic acid was used as the folate source. The implications of these findings for the use of lipophilic antifolates as alternative therapy for some methotrexate-resistant tumors are discussed.

Collateral sensitivity to cross-linking agents exhibited by cultured L1210 cells resistant to oxazaphosphorines.

The sensitivity of cultured L1210 and P388 cells, sensitive (L1210/0, P388/0) and resistant (L1210/CPA, P388/CPA) to cyclophosphamide in vivo, to five oxazaphosphorine and eight nonoxazaphosphorine cross-linking agents was determined. Each of the resistant sublines was cross-resistant to all of the oxazaphosphorines tested. The P388/CPA cell line was also cross-resistant to all of the nonoxazaphosphorines but, in most cases, not nearly to the same extent. The L1210/CPA cell line was collaterally sensitive to all but one of the nonoxazaphosphorines, in which case it was equisensitive. Changes in sensitivity could not be accounted for by changes in intracellular pH values, or by changes in intracellular inorganic phosphate or acid-soluble organic phosphate concentrations. Inasmuch as the L1210/CPA cell line was specifically resistant to the oxazaphosphorines, identification of the phenotypic basis for this resistance should serve to identify a potentially important determinant with regard to the basis for the oncotoxic specificity of this group of agents.

Collateral sensitivity to azidothymidine in methotrexate resistant human leukemia cells.

Resistance to methotrexate (MTX) is a well established clinical problem and strategies to circumvent this would obviously be beneficial. The human leukemia cell line, CCRF-CEM, was grown in folinic acid to study MTX resistance-reflecting more in vivo conditions. A 15.8-fold resistant subline, CEM/MTX, was evolved by stepwise increases in MTX exposure. The MTX resistant cell line exhibited both increased dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) activity due to gene amplification as well as impaired MTX uptake. An additional mechanism of resistance to MTX was a 2-fold increase in thymidine kinase (TK). As a result of this increased TK activity, the CEM/MTX cells were collaterally sensitive to the nucleoside analogue, azidothymidine (AZT). CEM cells resistant to MTX possess properties that can be exploited by AZT and these studies may have clinical implications.
