BACKGROUND: Treating drug-resistant sarcomas remains a major challenge. The
present study aimed to identify a novel therapy for drug-resistant sarcomas based
on metabolic errors involving argininosuccinate synthetase1 (ASS1). RESULTS: ASS1
expression was reduced in Dox-resistant sarcoma cells. Immunohistochemistry and
real-time PCR showed an inverse correlation between ASS1 and P-gp expressions.
The inhibition of cellular proliferation with G1-arrest was shown to lead to
autophagy with arginine deprivation. In addition, the combination of an autophagy
inhibitor plus arginine deprivation was more effective than arginine deprivation
alone. In cells with suppressed ASS1 expression, P-gp expression was upregulated
as compared to that in negative controls. DISCUSSION: These results indicate that
the reduced ASS1 expression in Dox-resistant sarcomas may contribute to drug
resistance in association with the expression of P-gp. ASS1 deficiency is a
potential target for novel drug therapies. The combination of
arginine-deprivation therapy and an autophagy inhibitor may have anti-tumor
effects in refractory sarcomas. METHODS: We assessed the expressions of ASS1 and
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in clinical specimens and cell lines of osteosarcoma
(KHOS), doxorubicin (Dox)-resistant osteosarcoma (KHOSR2), epithelioid sarcomas
(ES-X and VAESBJ) and alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS-KY). Each cell line was
cultured in arginine-containing and arginine-free media. Cell growth was assessed
using an XTT assay and flow cytometry. We analyzed the induction of autophagy in
arginine-free medium. Moreover, we assessed the expression of P-gp after
suppressing ASS1 in Dox-sensitive cells (MCF-7 and KHOS) and after transfecting
ASS1 into Dox-resistant cells (ES-X, VAESBJ, ASPS-KY and KHOSR2).
