Tenovin-6 has attracted significant interest because it activates p53 and
inhibits sirtuins. It has anti-neoplastic effects on multiple hematopoietic
malignancies and solid tumors in both in vitro and in vivo studies. Tenovin-6 was
recently shown to impair the autophagy pathway in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
cells and pediatric soft tissue sarcoma cells. However, whether tenovin-6 has a
general inhibitory effect on autophagy and whether there is any involvement with
SIRT1 and p53, both of which are regulators of the autophagy pathway, remain
unclear. In this study, we have demonstrated that tenovin-6 increases
microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3-II) level in diverse cell
types in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Mechanistically, the increase of
LC3-II by tenovin-6 is caused by inhibition of the classical autophagy pathway
via impairing lysosomal function without affecting the fusion between
autophagosomes and lysosomes. Furthermore, we have revealed that tenovin-6
activation of p53 is cell type dependent, and tenovin-6 inhibition of autophagy
is not dependent on its regulatory functions on p53 and SIRT1. Our results have
shown that tenovin-6 is a potent autophagy inhibitor, and raised the precaution
in interpreting results where tenovin-6 is used as an inhibitor of SIRT1.
