Abstract

• Melanoma is resistant to most standard chemotherapeutics. We analysed the combined effect of doxorubicin and enzastaurin on cell death of four melanoma cell lines, namely G361, SK-MEL3, A375 and SAN. Enzastaurin IC50 was calculated by measure of growth inhibition with MTS assay and corresponded to 2 ?M; the half maximal cytotoxicity of doxorubicin was obtained at 3 ?M dose. Evaluation of combination index showed synergism (CI > 1) or additive effect (CI = 1) with all melanoma cell lines, with enzastaurin doses >=0.6 ?M and doxorubicin doses >=1 ?M. Combination of the two drugs resulted in increase in caspase 3 and 8 activation, in comparison with activation by single agents. Caspase 8 activation was impaired by TNFR-1 blocking. Our results show doxorubicin-stimulated production of TNF?, whereas enzastaurin-stimulated TNFR-1 expression on plasma membrane. The effect on TNFR-1 appeared to be mediated by PKC? inhibition. Taken together, our findings suggest that enzastaurin increases doxorubicin-induced apoptosis of melanoma by a mechanism involving, at least in part, activation of the TNF-? signal. (literal)
