Abstract:
:The reduced folate carrier (RFC) is the dominant route for the uptake of various antifolates including PT523, a potent dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor (Ki = 0.35 pM) and an excellent transport substrate of the RFC (Kt = 0.7 microM). Here, we describe the multiple mechanisms of RFC inactivation in human leukemia PT523-resistant cells originally harboring 3 RFC alleles. Cellular exposure to gradually increasing PT523 concentrations resulted in sublines displaying up to 3500-fold resistance to various hydrophilic antifolates that rely on RFC for their cellular uptake. Antifolate-resistant cells lost RFC gene expression (65%-99% loss) due to impaired promoter binding of various transcription factors that regulate RFC gene expression. Additionally, DNA sequencing revealed that PT523-resistant cells contained a cluster of 4 nearly consecutive mutations residing on a single RFC allele including L143P, A147V, R148G, and Q150Stop. Southern blot analysis established the loss of an RFC allele in PT523-resistant cells. These alterations resulted in markedly decreased RFC protein levels (approximately 80%-99% loss) and consequently impaired [3H]methotrexate transport (87%-99% loss). This study provides the first evidence that acquisition of PT523 resistance in human leukemia cells harboring 3 RFC alleles is due to multiple coexisting alterations including transcriptional silencing, inactivating mutations, and RFC allele loss.
