Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Lenvatinib Causes Cardiotoxicity by Inducing Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Apoptosis through Activating ATF6, IRE1α and PERK Signaling Pathways.
Background: Lenvatinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can improve progression-free survival in patients with thyroid cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, it is limited by adverse cardiovascular events, including hypertension and cardiac dysfunction. Activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress is involved in cardiomyocyte apoptosis.
Objective: This study aimed to confirm whether the cardiotoxicity of lenvatinib is associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress by targeting the activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6), inositol- requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α) and protein kinase RNA-like ER kinase (PERK) signaling pathways.
Methods: Male C57/BL6 mice were intragastric administration with 30 mg/kg/day lenvatinib. Electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiography were used to detect arrhythmias and cardiac function. Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were treated with lenvatinib for 48h. Cell counting kit (CCK8), 2´,7´-dichlorodihydrofluoresceine diacetate (H2DCFHDA), Hoechst 33258 and dihydrorhodamine 123 were respectively used for evaluating cell viability, the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS), nuclear morphological changes and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) level.
Results: Lenvatinib remarkably decreased the posterior wall thickness of left ventricle during diastole and systole but caused little decrease to the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, %). Furthermore, lenvatinib greatly prolonged the corrected QT interval (QTc) and altered the morphology of cardiomyocytes. No dramatic difference in fibrosis was found in mouse cardiac slices. Lenvatinib upregulates apoptosis-related protein expression. In addition, lenvatinib increased ERS-related protein expression (GRP78, CHOP, and ATF6) and enhanced PERK phosphorylation. In neonatal rat cardiac myocytes, lenvatinib markedly decreased the viability of cardiomyocytes and induced apoptosis. Furthermore, ROS production increased and MMP decreased. Similar to the mice experiment, lenvatinib caused upregulation of apoptosis-related and ERS-related proteins and increased the phosphorylation levels of PERK and IRE1α.
Conclusion: Lenvatinib-induced cardiotoxicity is associated with ERS-induced apoptosis by targeting the ATF6, IRE1α, and PERK signaling pathways.
