A novel series of 4-anilinoquinazoline analogues, DW (1–10), were evaluated for anticancer efficacy in human breast cancer (BT-20) and human colorectal cancer (CRC) cell lines (HCT116, HT29, and SW620). The compound, DW-8, had the highest anticancer efficacy and selectivity in the colorectal cancer cell lines, HCT116, HT29, and SW620, with IC50 values of 8.50 ± 2.53 µM, 5.80 ± 0.92 µM, and 6.15 ± 0.37 µM, respectively, compared to the non-cancerous colon cell line, CRL1459, with an IC50 of 14.05 ± 0.37 µM. The selectivity index of DW-8 was >2-fold in colon cancer cells incubated with vehicle. We further determined the mechanisms of cell death induced by DW-8 in SW620 CRC cancer cells. DW-8 (10 and 30 µM) induced apoptosis by (1) producing cell cycle arrest at the G2 phase; (2) activating the intrinsic apoptotic pathway, as indicated by the activation of caspase-9 and the executioner caspases-3 and 7; (3) nuclear fragmentation and (4) increasing the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Overall, our results suggest that DW-8 may represent a suitable lead for developing novel compounds to treat CRC.

414 Background: Initially characterized as neuronal receptors, Neuropilins (NRPs) were also found to be expressed in endothelial cells and subsequently were shown to play a role in the development of the vascular system. NRP family consists of two genes, neuropilin-1 (NRP1) and neuropilin-2 (NRP2).The multiple functions of NRPs were recently highlighted by the identification of NRP role in oncogenesis. In this study, we first confirmed the role of NRP2 in tumor progression. We also extended the understanding of NRP2 oncogenic functions by investigating the ability of NRP2 to orchestrate epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in colorectal cancer cells. Methods: We have generated human colon cancer cell lines transfected with NRP2 transgene or siRNA to investigate NRP2 involvement in EMT. First, the oncogenic functions of NRP2 were studied in vitro by MTT, soft agar, invasion assays and in vivo using xenografts experiments. Ability of NRP2 to orchestrate EMT was then investigated by flow cytometry, immunohistochemical (IHC) staining, western-blotting and quantitative real-time PCR. Results: IHC staining revealed that NRP2 is expressed in human colon and breast carcinomas while it is not expressed in healthy tissues. Then, we confirmed that NRP2 increases tumor proliferation, colony formation, invasion and xenograft formation. Moreover, NRP2-expressing cells displayed an immunohistochemical phenotype of EMT characterized by the loss of E-Cadherin and an increase of vimentin. Furthermore, NRP2 expression promotes transforming-growth factor-β1 (TGF- β1) signaling, leading to an increased phosphorylation of the Smad2/3 complex in colorectal cancer cell lines. Specific inhibition of NRP2 using siRNA or treatment with specific TGFβRI kinase inhibitors prevented this phosphorylation and the EMT, suggesting that NRP2 cooperates with TGFRI to promote EMT in colorectal carcinoma. Conclusions: Our findings have reinforced the essential role of NRP2 in cancer progression and demonstrated that NRP2 expression confers to tumor cell lines the hallmarks of EMT. Moreover, in the current work, we present evidence for the therapeutic value of NRP2 targeting. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

CSDE1 (cold shock domain containing E1) gene is located upstream of the N-RAS locus, and codes for an RNA-binding protein named Upstream of N-Ras (UNR). In cancer, CSDE1 has been shown to regulate c-Fos, c-Myc, Pten, Rac1, or Vimentin. UNR/CSDE1 has been studied in breast, melanoma, pancreatic and prostate cancer. Then, the aim of this study is to evaluate the role of CSDE1/UNR in colorectal cancer progression and maintenance of aggressive phenotype. We firstly evaluated UNR/CSDE1 expression in human colon cancer derived cell lines and patient samples. Subsequently, we performed functional experiments by UNR/CSDE1 downregulation. We also evaluated UNR/CSDE1 prognostic relevance in two independent sets of patients. Not only was UNR/CSDE1 expression higher in tumor samples compared to untransformed samples, but also in colonospheres and metastatic origin cell lines than their parental and primary cell lines, respectively. Downregulation of UNR/CSDE1 reduced cell viability and migration throughout a restrain of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and increases sensitivity to apoptosis. Interestingly, high UNR/CSDE1 expression was associated with poor prognosis and correlated positively with c-MYC expression in colorectal cancer samples and cell lines. Here, we show for the first time compelling data reporting the oncogenic role of UNR/CSDE1 in human colorectal cancer.
