  • p53-Mediated upregulation of DcR1 impairs oxaliplatin/TRAIL-induced synergistic anti-tumour potential in colon cancer cells. Abstract Text:

    Oxaliplatin has emerged as a major chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of advanced colorectal cancer, yet like most conventional cancer therapeutics, its efficacy is often compromised due to p53 mutations. Unlike oxaliplatin, tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) triggers apoptosis in a p53-independent manner, and chemotherapy is known to overcome tumour resistance to TRAIL-induced cell death in most cancer cells. Using a panel of colon cancer cell lines, we assessed the ability of oxaliplatin to sensitize to TRAIL-induced apoptosis. We demonstrate that while both drugs additively or synergistically induced apoptosis in almost all cell lines tested, p53 wild-type colon cancer cells such as HCT116, LS513 or LS174T remained resistant. Impaired TRAIL-induced cell death resulted from a strong p53 dependent, oxaliplatin-mediated, DcR1 receptor expression increase. According to our finding, downregulation of DcR1 using siRNA, in p53 wild-type colon cancer cells, restored oxaliplatin/TRAIL synergistic apoptotic activity. On the contrary, exogenous DcR1 overexpression in SW480, a p53-mutated cell line, abolished the synergy between the two drugs. Altogether we demonstrate for the first time that p53 negatively regulates oxaliplatin-mediated TRAIL-induced apoptotic activity through DcR1 upregulation. Our findings could have important implications for future therapeutic strategies, and suggest that the association oxaliplatin/TRAIL should be restricted to patients harbouring a non-functional p53 protein.Oncogene (2008) 27, 4161-4171; doi:10.1038/onc.2008.52; published online 17 March 2008.
