Neuroprotective action of flavopiridol, a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, in colchicine-induced apoptosis.

Abstract:

:Flavopiridol was developed as a drug for cancer therapy due to its ability to inhibit cell cycle progression by targeting cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). In this study, we show that flavopiridol may also have a neuroprotective action. We show that at therapeutic dosage (or at micromolar range), flavopiridol almost completely prevents colchicine-induced apoptosis in cerebellar granule neurones. In agreement with this, flavopiridol inhibits both the release of cyt c and the activation of caspase-3 induced in response to colchicine treatment. We demonstrate that in this cellular model for neurotoxicity, neither re-entry in the cell cycle nor activation of stress-activated protein kinases, such as c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) or p38 MAP kinase, is involved. In contrast, we show that colchicine-induced apoptosis correlates with a substantial increase in the expression of cdk5 and Par-4, which is efficiently prevented by flavopiridol. Accordingly, a cdk5 inhibitor such as roscovitine, but not a cdk4 inhibitor such as 3-ATA, was also able to protect neurons from apoptosis as well as prevent accumulation of cdk5 and Par-4 in response to colchicine. Our data suggest a potential therapeutic use of flavopiridol in disorders of the central nervous system in which cytoskeleton alteration mediated by cdk5 activation and Par-4 expression has been demonstrated, such as Alzheimer's disease.
