Abstract Background Temozolomide-perillyl alcohol conjugate (TMZ-POH), a novel Temozolomide (TMZ) analog developed based on the conjugation of TMZ and perillyl alcohol (POH), displayed strong anticancer potency in multiple cancer types. In this study, we aimed to clarify the relationship between TMZ-POH and autophagy, and explore the underlying mechanisms involved in. Methods The proteins involved in autophagy, mitochondrial fission, lysosomal function and membrane traffic were detected by western blots; Autophagosome, mitochondria and lysosome were visualized by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and immunostaining; Apoptosis analysis and fluorescence probe detection were applied by flow cytometry. Results TMZ-POH blocked mitophagy flux although the number of autophagosomes which colocalized with mitochondria in the cells was increased via inducing lysosomal dysfunction as evidence from impaired lysosomal acidification, maturation and hampered autophagosome- lysosome fusion, which largely depended on its downregulation on the small GTPase RAB7A via mevalonate pathway. More importantly, our data demonstrated TMZ-POH sensitized cancer cell to irradiation induced apoptosis. Conclusions Temozolomide-perillyl alcohol conjugate impairs mitophagy flux by inducing lysosomal dysfunction in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) cells and sensitizes them to irradiation, thereby proposing TMZ-POH as a potential radiosensitizer. |
