Cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin are widely used anticancer drugs. Their efficacy is strongly reduced by development of cell resistance. Down-regulation of CTR1 and up-regulation of the Cu-ATPases, ATP7A and ATP7B, have been associated to augmented drug resistance. To gain information on translocation of Pt drugs by human Cu-ATPases, we performed electrical measurements on the COS-1 cell microsomal fraction, enriched with recombinant ATP7A, ATP7B, and selected mutants, and adsorbed on a solid supported membrane. The experimental results indicate that Pt drugs activate Cu-ATPases and undergo ATP-dependent translocation in a fashion similar to that of Cu. We then used NMR spectroscopy and ESI-MS to determine the binding mode of these drugs to the first N-terminal metal-binding domain of ATP7A (Mnk1).

Abstract
Cisplatin, carboplatin, and oxaliplatin are widely used anticancer drugs. Their efficacy is strongly reduced by development of cell resistance. Down-regulation of CTR1 and up-regulation of the Cu-ATPases, ATP7A and ATP7B, have been associated to augmented drug resistance. To gain information on translocation of Pt drugs by human Cu-ATPases, we performed electrical measurements on the COS-1 cell microsomal fraction, enriched with recombinant ATP7A, ATP7B, and selected mutants, and adsorbed on a solid supported membrane. The experimental results indicate that Pt drugs activate Cu-ATPases and undergo ATP-dependent translocation in a fashion similar to that of Cu. We then used NMR spectroscopy and ESI-MS to determine the binding mode of these drugs to the first N-terminal metal-binding domain of ATP7A (Mnk1).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
