    Abstract: Defect in apoptotic signaling and up-regulation of drug transporters in cancer cells significantly limits the effectiveness of cancer chemotherapy. We propose that an agent inducing non-apoptotic cell death may overcome cancer drug resistance and showed that shikonin, a naturally occurring naphthoquinone, induced a cell death in MCF-7 and HEK293 distinct from apoptosis and characterized with (a) a morphology of necrotic cell death; (b) loss of plasma membrane integrity; (c) loss of mitochondrial membrane potentials; (d) activation of autophagy as a downstream consequence of cell death, but not a contributing factor; (e) elevation of reactive oxygen species with no critical roles contributing to cell death; and (f) that the cell death was prevented by a small molecule, necrostatin-1, that specifically prevents cells from necroptosis. The characteristics fully comply with those of necroptosis, a basic cell-death pathway recently identified by Degterev et al. with potential relevance to human pathology. Furthermore, we proved that shikonin showed a similar potency toward drug-sensitive cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and HEK293) and their drug-resistant lines overexpressing P-glycoprotein, Bcl-2, or Bcl-xL, which account for most of the clinical cancer drug resistance. To our best knowledge, this is the first report to document the induction of necroptosis by a small molecular compound to circumvent cancer drug resistance. [Mol Cancer Ther 2007;6(5):1641–9]

    Abstract: Previous reports have shown that honokiol induces apoptosis in numerous cancer cell lines and showed preclinical efficacies against apoptosis-resistant B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia and multiple myeloma cells from relapse-refractory patients. Here, we show that honokiol can induce a cell death distinct from apoptosis in HL60, MCF-7, and HEK293 cell lines. The death was characterized by a rapid loss of integrity of plasma membrane without externalization of phosphatidyl serine. The broad caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk failed to prevent this cell death. Consistently, caspase activation and DNA laddering were not observed. The death was paralleled by a rapid loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, which was mechanistically associated with the mitochondrial permeability transition pore regulated by cyclophilin D (CypD) based on the following evidence: (a) cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of CypD (an essential component of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore), effectively prevented honokiol-induced cell death and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential; (b) inhibition of CypD by RNA interference blocked honokiol-induced cell death; (c) CypD up-regulated by honokiol was correlated with the death rates in HL60, but not in K562 cells, which underwent apoptosis after being exposed to honokiol. We further showed that honokiol induced a CypD-regulated death in primary human acute myelogenous leukemia cells, overcame Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL–mediated apoptotic resistance, and was effective against HL60 cells in a pilot in vivo study. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to document an induction of mitochondrial permeability transition pore–associated cell death by honokiol. [Cancer Res 2007;67(10):4894–903]
