Overexpression of a rabbit liver carboxylesterase sensitizes human tumor cells to CPT-11.

Abstract:

:CPT-11 [7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxycamptothecin ] is a prodrug that is converted to the active metabolite SN-38 by carboxylesterases. In its active form, the drug inhibits topoisomerase I, causes DNA damage, and induces apoptosis. Data in this study show metabolism of CPT-11 to SN-38 (7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin) by a rabbit liver carboxylesterase in vitro and growth-inhibitory activity of the products of the reaction. Additionally, stable expression of the cDNA encoding this protein in Rh30 human rhabdomyosarcoma cells increased the sensitivity of the cells to CPT-11 8.1-fold. We propose that this prodrug/enzyme combination can be exploited therapeutically in a manner analogous to approaches currently under investigation with the combinations of ganciclovir/herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase and 5-fluorocytosine/cytosine deaminase.
