Abstract:
PURPOSE:The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor gefitinib (ZD1839, Iressa) is approved for cancer treatment. We investigated whether gefitinib treatment can enhance human EGF (hEGF) uptake in vitro, thereby increasing the potential of hEGF as a vehicle for EGFR-targeted therapy. METHODS:Western blotting was used to detect the effect of gefitinib on EGFR signaling. Different EGFR-expressing tumor cells (SCC-1, 22B, A549, and HT-29) were pretreated with gefitinib, and then with (125)I-hEGF or (125)I-Vectibix (an anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody). Cell-associated activity was then measured. A cross-linking assay detected increased EGFR dimer formation in gefitinib-treated cells. RESULTS:Total EGFR levels were not changed, but EGFR phosphorylation was reduced in cells pretreated with gefitinib. Gefitinib mediated formation of EGFR dimers; binding of (125)I-hEGF to cells pretreated with gefitinib significantly increased. In contrast, binding of (125)I-Vectibix to tumor cells did not increase. Although total EGFR levels did not increase, binding of hEGF to EGFR + tumors was significantly enhanced after gefitinib treatment, because of increased hEGF binding to gefitinib-induced EGFR dimers. CONCLUSION:These results suggest that hEGF could enhance EGFR-targeting when used with gefitinib.
