Spatial proteogenomic profiling uncovers sensitization strategies for antibody-drug conjugate in HER2-positive breast cancer.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have transformed the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer, yet resistance remains poorly understood. Using imaging mass cytometry, we profiled 157 regions of interest comprising 912,360 single cells from 47 HER2-positive/hormone receptor-negative breast cancers treated with SHR-A1811 in the FASCINATE-N trial. Spatial proteomic analyses identified two determinants of ADC response: elevated tumor-cell H3K27ac expression was associated with improved ADC efficacy, whereas collagen-positive fibroblasts mediated resistance. Combining ADC with the histone deacetylase inhibitor chidamide or the collagen-modulating agent losartan produced synergistic antitumor effects in preclinical models. These biomarkers and therapeutic vulnerabilities were independently validated in patients with advanced HER2-positive disease receiving trastuzumab deruxtecan. Moreover, based on these spatial features, we developed a clinically applicable ADC barrier prediction model that can be implemented using multiplex immunofluorescence. Taken together, our findings reveal actionable spatial determinants of ADC efficacy and suggest potential combination therapeutic strategies.

ent-Abietane diterpenoids from Isodon rubescens var. rubescens.

ent-Abietane diterpenoids, hebeiabinins A-F (1-5), together with seven known diterpenoids were isolated from leaves of Isodon rubescens var. rubescens. The structures of 1-5 were established on the basis of spectroscopic analyses, including application of 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques. The diterpenoids isolated were evaluated for the cytotoxicity against A549, HT-29, and K562 tumor cells. Compound 5 was the most active with IC(50) value of 0.91 microM against A549 cells.

Synthesis and cytotoxicity of some new eriocalyxin B derivatives.

Eriocalyxin B (1) was regarded as the promising candidate for new anticancer agent because of its potent activity and novel mechanism of action. Systematic modifications of 1 were done, and nineteen derivatives were synthesized and their cytotoxicities against five tumor cell lines were evaluated. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) of 1 confirmed that the alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone moieties in ring A and D are the leading active sites; the 7,20-epoxy moiety, OH-6 and OH-7 play an important role in keeping the cytotoxicity. The 6,7-seco derivative 19 had remarkable activity while derivative 20 oxidized from 19 was completely inactive, which suggested that the carboxyl group could destroy the cytoxicity of 20 despite the presence of alpha,beta-unsaturated ketone moiety.

Eriocalyxin B inhibits nuclear factor-kappaB activation by interfering with the binding of both p65 and p50 to the response element in a noncompetitive manner.

Nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) has been recognized to play a critical role in cell survival and inflammatory processes. It has become a target for intense drug development for the treatment of cancer, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases. Here, we describe a potent NF-kappaB inhibitor, eriocalyxin B (Eri-B), an ent-kauranoid isolated from Isodon eriocalyx, an anti-inflammatory remedy. The presence of two alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones give this compound the uniqueness among the ent-kauranoids tested. Eri-B inhibited the NF-kappaB transcriptional activity but not that of cAMP response element-binding protein. It suppressed the transcription of NF-kappaB downstream gene products including cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric-oxide synthase induced by tumor necrosis factor-alpha or lipopolysaccharide in macrophages and hepatocarcinoma cells. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay indicated that Eri-B selectively blocked the binding between NF-kappaB and the response elements in vivo without affecting the nuclear translocation of the transcription factor. Down-regulation of the endogenous p65 protein sensitized the cells toward the action of the compound. Furthermore, in vitro binding assays suggested that Eri-B reversibly interfered with the binding of p65 and p50 subunits to the DNA in a noncompetitive manner. In summary, this study reveals the novel action of a potent NF-kappaB inhibitor that could be potentially used for the treatment of a variety of NF-kappaB-associated diseases. Modification of the structure of this class of compounds becomes the key to the control of the behavior of the compound against different cellular signaling pathways.
