Research Abstract |
We aimed to characterize the distinct molecular response to gefitinib between the drug-resistant and drug-sensitive lung adenocarcinoma cells in order to learn about therapeutics based on the molecular information. Consequently, we found a specific increase in p14^<ARF> expression in gefitinib-sensitive lung adenocarcinoma clones, which was absent in gefitinib-resistant clones. Moreover, we identified the amino acid residues spanning from 38 to 65 as a functional core of mitochondrial p14^<ARF> (p14 38-65 a.a.), which reduced the mitochondrial membrane potential and caused caspase-9 activation. The synthesized peptide covering the p14 38-65 a.a.induced growth suppression of the gefitinib-resistant clones without affecting non-neoplastic cells. These findings suggest that the region of p14^<ARF> 38-65 a.a. is critical in the pharmacological action of gefitinib against EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma cells and has potential utility in the therapeutics of gefitinib-resistant cancers.
