Abstract
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is one of the many unintended consequences of chemotherapy faced by the growing number of female cancer survivors. While ovarian repercussions of chemotherapy have long been recognized, the acute insult phase and primary sites of damage are not well-studied, hampering efforts to design effective intervention therapies to protect the ovary. Utilizing doxorubicin (DXR) as a model chemotherapy agent, we defined the acute timeline for drug accumulation, induced DNA damage, and subsequent cellular and follicular demise in the mouse ovary. DXR accumulated first in the core ovarian stroma cells, then redistributed outwards into the cortex and follicles in a time-dependent manner, without further increase in total ovarian drug levels after four hours post-injection. Consistent with early drug accumulation and intimate interactions with the blood supply, stroma cell-enriched populations exhibited an earlier DNA damage response (measurable at 2 hours) than granulosa cells (measurable at 4 hours), as quantified by the comet assay. Granulosa cell-enriched populations were more sensitive however, responding with greater levels of DNA damage. The oocyte DNA damage response was delayed, and not measurable above background until 10-12 hours post-DXR injection. By 8 hours post-DXR injection and prior to the oocyte DNA damage response, the number of primary, secondary, and antral follicles exhibiting TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling)-positive granulosa cells plateaued, indicating late-stage apoptosis and suggesting damage to the oocytes is subsequent to somatic cell failure. Primordial follicles accumulate significant DXR by 4 hours post-injection, but do not exhibit TUNEL-positive granulosa cells until 48 hours post-injection, indicating delayed demise. Taken together, the data suggest effective intervention therapies designed to protect the ovary from chemotherapy accumulation and induced insult in the ovary must act almost immediately to prevent acute insult as significant damage was seen in stroma cells within the first two hours.

Clustering of endocytic organelles in parental and drug-resistant myeloid leukaemia cell lines lacking centrosomally organised microtubule arrays. Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2008; 40:2240-52.

Abstract
Spatial organisation and trafficking of endocytic organelles in mammalian cells is tightly regulated and dependent on cytoskeletal networks. The dynamics of endocytic pathways is modified in a number of diseases, including cancer, and notably in multidrug resistant (MDR) cells that are refractory to the effects of several anti-cancer agents. These cells often upregulate expression of drug-efflux pumps but this may be synergistic with alternative resistance mechanisms including increased acidification of endocytic organelles that enhances vesicular sequestration of weak-base anti-cancer drugs such as daunorubicin away from their nuclear target. Here, we characterised the distribution of sequestered daunorubicin in commonly used leukaemia cell lines, HL-60, K562, KG1a and the multidrug resistant HL-60/ADR line, and related this to the spatial distribution of their endocytic organelles and microtubule networks. HL-60 and KG1a cells contained microtubule arrays emanating from organising centres, and their endocytic organelles and daunorubicin labelled vesicles were scattered throughout the cytoplasm. HL-60/ADR and K562 cells showed extensive clustering of early and recycling endosomes, late endosomes, lysosomes and daunorubicin to a juxtanuclear region but these cells lacked microtubule arrays. Microtubular organisation within these clustered regions was however, required for spatial tethering of endocytic organelles and the Golgi, as treatment with nocodazole and paclitaxel had major effects on their distribution. HL-60 and HL-60/ADR cells had similar lysosomal pH of <5.0 and overall these findings suggests a general relationship between the absence of microtubule arrays and the propensity of leukaemia cell lines to cluster endocytic organelles and daunorubicin into the juxtanuclear region.

Abstract
We and others have shown that the copper transporters ATP7A and ATP7B play a role in cellular resistance to cis-diaminedichloroplatinum (II) (CDDP). In this study, we found that ATP7A transfection of Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) and fibroblasts isolated from Menkes disease patients enhanced resistance not only to CDDP but also to various anticancer drugs, such as vincristine, paclitaxel, 7-ethyl-10-hydroxy-camptothecin (SN-38), etoposide, doxorubicin, mitoxantron, and 7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino] carbonyloxycamptothecin (CPT-11). ATP7A preferentially localized doxorubicin fluorescence to the Golgi apparatus in contrast to the more intense nuclear staining of doxorubicin in the parental cells. Brefeldin A partially and monensin completely altered the distribution of doxorubicin to the nuclei in the ATP7A-expressing cells. ATP7A expression also enhanced the efflux rates of doxorubicin and SN-38 from cells and increased the uptake of SN-38 in membrane vesicles. These findings strongly suggested that ATP7A confers multidrug resistance to the cells by compartmentalizing drugs in the Golgi apparatus and by enhancing efflux of these drugs, and the trans-Golgi network has an important role of ATP7A-related drug resistance. ATP7A was expressed in 8 of 34 (23.5%) clinical colon cancer specimens but not in the adjacent normal epithelium. Using the histoculture drug response assay that is useful for the prediction of drug sensitivity of clinical cancers, ATP7A-expressing colon cancer cells were significantly more resistant to SN-38 than ATP7A-negative cells. Thus, ATP7A confers resistance to various anticancer agents on cancer cells and might be a good index of drug resistance in clinical colon cancers.

Abstract
C-myc is an oncogene with the important role of cell proliferation controller. It has been found to be amplified and overexpressed in osteosarcoma. Moreover, it can promote cell transformation and induce metastatic features. Some studies showed that overexpression of c-myc could induce resistance in response to antineoplastic agents. Currently, we constructed the recombinant adenovirus (Ad-Asc-myc) encoding antisense c-myc fragment and investigated its effect on the in vitro sensitivity of osteosarcoma MG-63 cells to cisplatin(CDDP). The osteosarcoma MG-63 cells were transfected by the Ad-Asc-myc in vitro, and Western Blot, MTT assay, RT-PCR, flow cytometry (FCM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to study expression of c-myc and caspase-3 protein, tumor cell proliferation in vitro, cell apoptotic morphology and cell cycle change. Ad-Asc-myc encoding antisense c-myc fragment was obtained with the titer of 2.0 x 10(9) pfu/ml. Ad-Asc-myc downregulated the expression of c-myc protein after transfected MG-63 cells for 48 hours, combined with the treatment of 2.0, 5.0 microg/ml cisplatin for 2 hours can inhibited tumor cells proliferation in vitro by 33.4 and 54.2 percent, respectively, which had significant difference compared with control recombinant adenovirus (Ad-LacZ) groups (P < 0.05). RT-PCR revealed that Ad-Asc-myc downregulated expression of bcl-2 and upregulated expression of Bax, and no appreciable changes were observed in the expression of E2F-1. Detection of caspase-3 protein TEM, and FCM analysis showed that Ad-Asc-myc could induce apoptosis of transfected cells, which was enhanced by the treatment of cisplatin. Cell cycle analysis showed that obvious G(2)/M phase arrested in transfected cells. In conclusion, Ad-Asc-myc increased the in vitro sensitivity of osteosarcoma MG-63 cells to cisplatin as well as induced apoptosis.

Abstract
A major impediment to cancer treatment is the development of resistance by the tumor. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) are involved in multidrug resistance. In addition to the extrusion of chemotherapeutic agents through these transporters, it has been reported that there are differences in the intracellular distribution of chemotherapeutic agents between drug resistant cells and sensitive cells. Cepharanthine is a plant alkaloid that effectively reverses resistance to anticancer agents. It has been previously shown that cepharanthine is an effective agent for the reversal of resistance in P-gp-overexpressing cells. Cepharanthine has also been reported to have numerous pharmacological effects besides the inhibition of P-gp. It has also been found that cepharanthine enhanced sensitivity to doxorubicin (ADM) and vincristine (VCR), and enhanced apoptosis induced by ADM and VCR of P-gp negative K562 cells. Cepharanthine changed the distribution of ADM from cytoplasmic vesicles to nucleoplasm in K562 cells by inhibiting the acidification of cytoplasmic organelles. Cepharanthine in combination with ADM should be useful for treating patients with tumors.

Abstract
The expression of CD34 antigen in acute myelogenous leukemias is considered an unfavourable prognosis marker for response to anticancer drugs and duration of remission. This study investigated the applicability of long-circulating immunoliposomes loaded with doxorubicin targeted to CD34 antigen present on MDR(+) human myelogenous leukemia KG-1a cell line. Immunoliposomal doxorubicin showed a higher cytotoxicity against KG-1a cells than non-targeted liposomal doxorubicin, but it did not improve over that of free drug. Although no reversal of doxorubicin resistance was found to occur through its liposomal encapsulation, a therapeutic benefit can be obtained by the selective cytotoxicity observed. Endocytosis studies demonstrated that, after binding to CD34 antigen, the immunoliposomes are not internalized by the KG-1a cells and so the cytotoxic effect might be due to drug released into the space near the cell membrane. Thus, immunotargeting of liposomal doxorubicin to CD34(+) leukemic cells may only provide an ex vivo strategy for site-selective CD34(+) leukemia cell killing.

Abstract
It has been suggested that the inappropriate sequestration of weak-base chemotherapeutic drugs in acidic vesicles by multidrug-resistance (MDR) cells contributes to the mechanisms of drug resistance. The function of the acidic lysosomes can be altered in MDR cells, and so we investigated the effects of lysosomotropic agents on the secretion of lysosomal enzymes and on the intracellular distribution of the weak-base anthracycline daunomycin in drug-resistant renal proximal tubule PKSV-PR(col50) cells and their drug-sensitive PKSV-PR cell counterparts. Imaging studies using pH-dependent lysosomotropic dyes revealed that drug-sensitive and drug-resistant cells exhibited a similar acidic lysosomal pH (around 5.6-5.7), but that PKSV-PR(col50) cells contained more acidic lysosomes and secreted more of the lysosomal enzymes N -acetyl-beta-hexosaminidase and beta-glucuronidase than their parent PKSV-PR cells. Concanamycin A (CCM A), a potent inhibitor of the vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, but not the P-glycoprotein modulator verapamil, stimulated the secretion of N -acetyl-beta-hexosaminidase in both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant cells. Fluorescent studies and Percoll density gradient fractionation studies revealed that daunomycin accumulated predominantly in the lysosomes of PKSV-PR(col50) cells, whereas in PKSV-PR cells the drug was distributed evenly throughout the nucleo-cytoplasmic compartments. CCM A did not impair the cellular efflux of daunomycin, but induced the rapid nucleo-cytoplasmic redistribution of the drug in PKSV-PR(col50) cells. In addition, CCM A and bafilomycin A1 almost completely restored the sensitivity of these drug-resistant cells to daunomycin, doxorubicin and epirubicin. These findings indicate that lysosomotropic agents that impair the acidic-pH-dependent accumulation of weak-base chemotherapeutic drugs may reverse anthracycline resistance in MDR cells with an expanded acidic lysosomal compartment.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the role of transport proteins in daunorubicin (Dnr) accumulation and efflux in leukemia cells from 36 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Mononuclear cells were isolated and incubated with 1 microM Dnr with/without addition of 3 microM cyclosporin A (CyA) or metabolic inhibitors (MI). Cellular Dnr concentration in leukemia blast cells was measured with flow cytometry. After washing and reincubation of the cells in drug-free medium, Dnr efflux was followed with/without addition of CyA or MI. Levels of mRNA expression for mdr1, multidrug resistance associated protein (mrp) and lung resistance protein (lrp) were determined with reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). MI enhanced cellular Dnr accumulation to a higher extent than CyA whereas CyA reduced Dnr efflux more efficiently than MI (P<0.001). There was a significant difference in Dnr accumulation between samples with low and high mdr1 mRNA levels but only in the presence of MI or CyA. Our results imply that other factors than P-glycoprotein (Pgp) are of major importance for in vitro Dnr accumulation in AML blasts and that the role of Pgp as a drug efflux pump is not conclusive.

Abstract
The DNA mismatch repair (MMR) proteins are essential for the maintenance of genomic stability of human cells. Compared with hereditary or even sporadic carcinomas, MMR gene mutations are very uncommon in leukemia. However, genetic instability, attested by either loss of heterozygosity or microsatellite instability, has been extensively documented in chronic or acute malignant myeloid disorders. This observation suggests that in leukemia some internal or external signals may interfere with MMR protein expression and/or function. We investigated the effects of protein kinase C (PKC) stimulation by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) on MMR protein expression and activity in human myeloid leukemia cell lines. First, we show here that unstimulated U937 cells displayed low level of PKC activity as well as MMR protein expression and activity compared with a panel of myeloid cell lines. Second, treatment of U937 cells with TPA significantly increased (3-5-fold) hMSH2 expression and, to a lesser extent, hMSH6 and hPMS2 expression, correlated to a restoration of MMR function. In addition, diacylglycerol, a physiological PKC agonist, induced a significant increase in hMSH2 expression, whereas chelerythrine or calphostin C, two PKC inhibitors, significantly decreased TPA-induced hMSH2 expression. Reciprocally, treatment of HEL and KG1a cells that exhibited a high level of PKC expression, with chelerythrine significantly decreased hMSH2 and hMSH6 expression. Moreover, the alteration of MMR protein expression paralleled the difference in microsatellite instability and cell sensitivity to 6-thioguanine. Our results suggest that PKC could play a role in regulating MMR protein expression and function in some myeloid leukemia cells.

Abstract
Drug compartmentalization as well as drug efflux can contribute to drug resistance. We demonstrate the presence of P-gp in intracellular vesicles in certain AML cell lines and show localization of DNR to a similar subcellular compartment(s) that can be altered in the presence of P-gp inhibitors. Analysis of leukaemic cell lines and 50 AML patient samples showed that the level of P-gp mRNA or total P-gp protein correlated better with drug efflux than surface P-gp protein, suggesting that intracellular P-gp may contribute to MDR in AML. Therefore, the level of total P-gp protein or mRNA may be a better indicator of MDR than surface P-gp protein. In addition, we provide evidence for a novel mechanism of drug sequestration in K562 myeloid leukaemic cells.

Abstract
Granzyme B (GrB) and perforin (PFN) are the major components of cytoplasmic granules contained in immune cellular effectors. The granule secretory pathway is one of the mechanisms by which these cells exert their cellular cytotoxicity. Recently, it has been reported that GrB and PFN are also present in circulating hemopoietic CD34+ progenitor cells mobilized by chemotherapy and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, whereas these proteins are undetected in steady-state peripheral CD34+ cells. In this study, we hypothesized that anticancer agents may increase GrB and PFN expression in immature myeloid leukemic cells and that these treated leukemic cells become cellular effectors through a granule-dependent mechanism. Our results show that KG1a, HEL, and TF-1 CD34+acute myeloblastic leukemia cells expressed both GrB and PFN. Moreover, ionizing radiation, aracytine, and etoposide not only increase GrB and PFN expression but also conferred potent cellular cytotoxicity to these cells toward various cellular targets. Cellular cytotoxicity required cell-cell contact, was not influenced by anti-tumor necrosis factor α or anti-Fas blocking antibodies, and was abrogated by GrB inhibitors or antisense. These results suggest that, when exposed to genotoxic agents, immature leukemic cells acquire potent GrB- and PFN-dependent cellular cytotoxicity that can be potentially directed against normal residual myeloid progenitors or immune effectors.

Abstract
We examined the subcellular distribution of daunorubicin (DNR) in resistant K562 cell line which overexpress the P-glycoprotein by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Three fluorescent probes - Rhodamine123, neutral red, NBD-ceramide, which stain the mitochondria, lysosomes, Golgi apparatus respectively, were used to identify the nature of the subcellular compartment sequestering daunorubicin. In sensitive k562 cell line, nuclear and cytoplasmic DNR fluorescence was intense and diffuse. In contrast, resistant K562 cell line showed a different DNR distribution. A bright fluorescence signal was located in the perinuclear region and peripheral plasma, the nucleus and other cytoplasmic region appear as empty, as suggested by the distribution of fluorescent probe Rhodamine123 specifically for mitochondria. Verapamil, an effective resistance modulator in P-glycoprotein MDR cells, restored the DNR distribution closer to that in the parent cells. Golgic inhibitor brefeldin A and lysosomotropic agent chloroquine had little effect on drug sequestration. Our studies demonstrate that daunorubicin may be sequestered in mitochondrial compartment in the resistant cells and P-glycoprotein plays an important role on mediating DNR transport.

Abstract
AbstractGranzyme B (GrB) and perforin (PFN) are the major components of cytoplasmic granules contained in immune cellular effectors. The granule secretory pathway is one of the mechanisms by which these cells exert their cellular cytotoxicity. Recently, it has been reported that GrB and PFN are also present in circulating hemopoietic CD34+ progenitor cells mobilized by chemotherapy and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, whereas these proteins are undetected in steady-state peripheral CD34+ cells. In this study, we hypothesized that anticancer agents may increase GrB and PFN expression in immature myeloid leukemic cells and that these treated leukemic cells become cellular effectors through a granule-dependent mechanism. Our results show that KG1a, HEL, and TF-1 CD34+acute myeloblastic leukemia cells expressed both GrB and PFN. Moreover, ionizing radiation, aracytine, and etoposide not only increase GrB and PFN expression but also conferred potent cellular cytotoxicity to these cells toward various cellular targets. Cellular cytotoxicity required cell-cell contact, was not influenced by anti-tumor necrosis factor α or anti-Fas blocking antibodies, and was abrogated by GrB inhibitors or antisense. These results suggest that, when exposed to genotoxic agents, immature leukemic cells acquire potent GrB- and PFN-dependent cellular cytotoxicity that can be potentially directed against normal residual myeloid progenitors or immune effectors.

Abstract
Sequestration of drugs in intracellular vesicles has been associated with multidrug-resistance (MDR), but it is not clear why vesicular drug accumulation, which depends upon intracellular pH gradients, should be associated with MDR. Using a human uterine sarcoma cell line (MES-SA) and a doxorubicin (DOX)-resistant variant cell line (Dx-5), which expresses p-glycoprotein (PGP), we have addressed the relationship between multidrug resistance, vesicular acidification, and vesicular drug accumulation. Consistent with a pH-dependent mechanism of vesicular drug accumulation, studies of living cells vitally labeled with multiple probes indicate that DOX and daunorubicin (DNR) predominately accumulate in lysosomes, whose lumenal pH was measured at < 4.5, but are not detected in endosomes, whose pH was measured at 5.9. However, vesicular DOX accumulation is more pronounced in the drug-sensitive MES-SA cells and minimal in Dx5 cells even when cellular levels of DOX are increased by verapamil treatment. While lysosomal accumulation of DOX correlated well with pharmacologically induced differences in lysosome pH in MES-SA cells, lysosomal accumulation was minimal in Dx5 cells regardless of lysosomal pH. We found no differences in the pH of either endosomes or lysosomes between MES-SA and Dx5 cells, suggesting that, in contrast to other MDR cell systems, the drug-resistant Dx5 cells are refractory to pH-dependent vesicular drug accumulation. These studies demonstrate that altered endomembrane pH regulation is not a necessary consequence of cell transformation, and that vesicular sequestration of drugs is not a necessary characteristic of MDR.

Abstract
The in vitro intracellular daunorubicin accumulation (IDA) of blast cells from 69 patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) was correlated with the expression and functional activity of the multidrug resistance (MDR) proteins, P-glycoprotein (Pgp), multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) and lung-resistance protein (LRP). An inverse and significant association was found between IDA and Pgp-related efflux activity (r = -0.31, P = 0.01) and also MRP (r = -0.25, P = 0.04) but not with LRP (r = -0.13, P = 0.28). Coexpression of the MDR proteins had an additive effect in further lowering of IDA levels, suggesting that the clinical MDR phenotype is dependent on the sum of multiple MDR factors available to the leukaemic cell. Thus, the median IDA of leukaemic cells without any MDR proteins was significantly higher than that of blasts carrying two MDR proteins (0.466 vs. 0.296, P = 0.046). Seven patients with no expression of Pgp, MRP and LRP still had low IDA levels, suggesting the presence of efflux MDR mechanisms other than those studied. The relation of IDA to clinical parameters known to be associated with poor prognosis, such as age, secondary AML, karyotype, peripheral blood blast and CD34 counts, was also studied, but no significance was found on multifactorial analysis. There was a non-significant trend for earlier relapse in patients with low IDA levels (leukaemia-free survival of 16.3 months compared with 21.1 months in patients with high IDA levels). Our data suggest that, while the IDA assay is a quick and relatively easy test for the combined efflux MDR phenotype, it is unable to detect other MDR mechanisms, such as LRP, which may be important to the clinical outcome of patients with AML.

Abstract
Traditional antitumor research has generally believed that the cytotoxicity of antitumor agents was directly correlated with the amount of drug-induced cellular lesions. Accordingly, oncologists have tried to improve anticancer agent/target interactions by increasing the intracellular dose of active effectors. However, a growing body of evidence stemming from both clinical and experimental observations, strongly suggests that similar anticancer-induced lesions may result in different cellular responses, greatly influencing cytotoxicity. For example, it has been shown that in some but not all cellular models, antitumor agents trigger apoptosis, an irreversible process which leads to a rapid and complete elimination of tumor cells. Several of these studies also demonstrated that apoptosis induced by antitumor agents is highly regulated by multiple signaling pathways which are themselves influenced by oncogenes, protein kinase activities, external stimuli and the oxidative balance. Therefore, it appears that cell death commitment is controlled by both external and internal factors which interfere downstream of drug- or ionizing radiation-target interaction. The characterization of these mediators may provide novel strategies for modulating intracellular signaling pathways in order to promote apoptosis in drug-resistant tumor cells.
