Targeting RNA helicase DDX3X with a small molecule inhibitor for breast cancer bone metastasis treatment
Patients who present with breast cancer bone metastasis only have limited palliative treatment strategies and efficacious drug treatments are needed. In breast cancer patient data, high levels of the RNA helicase DDX3 are associated with poor overall survival and bone metastasis. Consequently, our objective was to target DDX3 in a mouse breast cancer bone metastasis model using a small molecule inhibitor of DDX3, RK-33. Histologically confirmed live imaging indicated no bone metastases in the RK-33 treated cohort, as opposed to placebo-treated mice. We generated a cell line from a bone metastatic lesion in mouse and found that it along with a patient-derived bone metastasis cell line gained resistance to conventional chemotherapeutics but not to RK-33. Finally, differential levels of DDX3 were observed in breast cancer patient metastatic bone samples. Overall, this study indicates that DDX3 is a relevant clinical target in breast cancer bone metastasis and that RK-33 can be a safe and effective treatment for these patients.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Letters is a reputable international journal that serves as a platform for significant and original contributions in cancer research. The journal welcomes both full-length articles and Mini Reviews in the wide-ranging field of basic and translational oncology. Furthermore, it frequently presents Special Issues that shed light on current and topical areas in cancer research.
Cancer Letters is highly interested in various fundamental aspects that can cater to a diverse readership. These areas include the molecular genetics and cell biology of cancer, radiation biology, molecular pathology, hormones and cancer, viral oncology, metastasis, and chemoprevention. The journal actively focuses on experimental therapeutics, particularly the advancement of targeted therapies for personalized cancer medicine, such as metronomic chemotherapy.
By publishing groundbreaking research and promoting advancements in cancer treatments, Cancer Letters aims to actively contribute to the fight against cancer and the improvement of patient outcomes.
