Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, TCP-169, which is a synthetic derivative based on (+)-negamycin, a dipeptidic antibiotic, significantly suppressed the proliferation of Calu-6 cells caused by nonsense mutation of TP53. This activity based on readthrough of nonsense mutation was significantly enhanced by the co-treatment of nutlin-3 or brefeldin A, which are a MDM-2 inhibitor or an intracellular protein transport inhibitor, respectively. Additionally, p53 protein re-expression in TCP-169-treated Calu-6 cell (p53 null) was confirmed by western blotting. On the other hand, this study suggested that TCP-169 might possess another function against cell proliferation in the cell except for accelerating re-production of p53 protein. Therefore, elucidation of the detailed anti-proliferative mechanism of TCP-169 is expected in the future work.
