Effectiveness of human cytochrome P450 3A4 present in liposomal and microsomal nanoparticles in formation of covalent DNA adducts by ellipticine

Original language description

OBJECTIVES: Ellipticine is an anticancer agent that functions through multiple mechanisms participating in cell cycle arrest and initiation of apoptosis. This drug forms covalent DNA adducts after its enzymatic activation with cytochrome P450 (CYP), which is one of the most important ellipticine DNA-damaging mechanisms of its cytotoxic effects. The improvements of cancer treatment are the major challenge in oncology research. Nanotransporters (nanoparticles) are promising approaches to target tumor cells, frequently leading to improve drug therapeutic index. Ellipticine has already been prepared in nanoparticle forms. However, since its anticancer efficiency depends on the CYP3A4-mediated metabolism in cancer cells, the aim of our research is to develop nanoparticles containing this enzyme that can be transported to tumor cells, thereby potentiating ellipticine cytotoxicity. METHODS: The CYP3A4 enzyme encapsulated into two nanoparticle forms, liposomes and microsomes, was tested to activate ellipticine to its reactive species forming covalent DNA adducts. Ellipticine-derived DNA adducts were determined by the 32P-postlabeling method. RESULTS: The CYP3A4 enzyme both in the liposome and microsome nanoparticle forms was efficient to activate ellipticine to species forming DNA adducts. Two DNA adducts, which are formed from ellipticine metabolites 12-hydroxy- and 13-hydroxyellipticine generated by its oxidation by CYP3A4, were formed by both CYP3A4 nanoparticle systems. A higher effectiveness of CYP3A4 in microsomal than in liposomal nanoparticles to form ellipticine-DNA adducts was found. CONCLUSION: Further testing in a suitable cancer cell model is encouraged to investigate whether the DNA-damaging effects of ellipticine after its activation by CYP3A4 nanoparticle forms are appropriate for active targeting of this enzyme to specific cancer cells.
