摘要
We have previously shown that inhibition of translation initiation, using the small molecule inhibitor silvestrol, induces apoptosis in a pre-clinical murine lymphoma model when combined with daunorubicin. Silvestrol blocks ribosome recruitment by targeting the RNA helicase, eIF4A, which is required for this process. Here we investigate the sensitivity of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) cell lines to protein synthesis inhibition in combination with the standard cytotoxic agents daunorubicin, etoposide, and cytarabine. Silvestrol shows synergy with standard-of-care agents in AML cell lines and synergizes with ABT-737, a small molecule inhibitor of Bcl-XL and Bcl-2. The in vitro synergy between silvestrol and the cytotoxic drugs used in AML therapy provides a basis for in vivo evaluation of these combinations. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
