In vitro study | In human and rat smooth muscle cells, Zibotentan specifically inhibits the anti-apoptotic effect mediated by ET A, but has no effect on the pro-apoptotic effect mediated by ET B, zibotentan binds with high affinity to endothelin A receptor (ET A) with A K I of 13 nM, whereas it has no affinity to endothelin B receptor (ETB) with an IC50>10 μm. In ovarian cancer cell lines HEY and OVCA 433, which secrete ET-1 and express ET A and ET B mRNA, 1 μm Zibotentan treatment inhibited ET-1-Induced Mitogenic activity. ZD4054 (1 μm) inhibited ET-1-induced EGFR Transactivation In HEY and OVCA 433 cells. Zibotentan (1 μm), by enhancing E-cadherin expression and promoter activity, and inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) secretion and invasion in 433 cells reversal of ET-1-mediated epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Zibotentan also potently inhibits basal and ET-1-induced cell proliferation in SKOV-3 and A- 2780 cells, which correlates with inhibition of AKT and p42/44MAPK phosphorylation, it is also associated with the inhibition of bcl-2 and caspase-3 with the activation of the poly (ADP-RIBOSE) POLYMERASE PROTEIN, leading to increased APOPTOSIS. |
In vivo study | Zibotentan(10 mg/kg/day) administration for 21 days effectively inhibited the growth of 69% of HEY ovarian cancer xenografts in mice without associated toxicity, this correlates with a 37% inhibition of Ki-67 expression and 62% inhibition of tumor-induced angiogenesis of cell proliferation. Similarly, Zibotentan treatment significantly inhibited the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and VEGF, as well as the activation of p42/44 MAPK and EGFR, and effectively enhanced the expression of E-cadherin. |
