MNK/eIF4E inhibition overcomes anlotinib resistance in non‐small cell lung cancer

Abstract

Anlotinib is approved for refractory cases in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This is a novel oral multitarget tyrosine kinase inhibitor, but patients inevitably face prospects of drug resistance during the treatment process. Using anlotinib-resistant NSCLC models, this work investigated the underlying molecular mechanism and systematically addressed the issue of anlotinib resistance. We demonstrated that expression and activity of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) were upregulated in NSCLC cells due to prolonged exposure to anlotinib. eIF4E depletion resulted in significant effects to anlotinib-resistant cells, showing proliferation inhibition and apoptosis inducement. We further showed that MAP kinase interacting serine/threonine kinase (MNK)-dependent eIF4E inhibition by cercosporamide was active against anlotinib-resistant cells and significantly augmented anlotinib's efficacy in parental NSCLC cells. Importantly, observations from in-vitro exp eriments are consistent in in vivo anlotinib-resistant and anlotinib-sensitive NSCLC cancer xenograft mouse models. Our work is the first to reveal that eIF4E is involved intimately in anlotinib resistance development in NSCLC, and this eIF4E activation can be reversed by cercosporamide or other MNK inhibitors.
