abstract = {Resistance towards the drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is a key
challenge in the adjuvant chemotherapy of colorectal cancer
(CRC), and novel targeted approaches are required to improve
the therapeutic outcome. Necroptosis is a recently
discovered form of programmed cell death, which depends on
receptor interacting protein 1 (RIP1) and particularly
occurs under caspase-deficient conditions. The targeted
induction of necroptosis represents a promising strategy to
overcome apoptosis resistance in cancer. The aim of this
study was to systematically explore the usage of pan-caspase
inhibitors to sensitize resistant CRC cells for 5-FU. We
found that pan-caspase inhibitors facilitated 5-FU-induced
necroptosis, which was mediated by autocrine secretion of
tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). TNF-α production was
driven by nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and required RIP1
kinase. In vivo xenograft experiments showed that the novel
pan-caspase inhibitor IDN-7314 in combination with 5-FU
synergistically blocked tumor growth. Ex vivo experiments
with fresh human CRC tissue specimens further indicated that
a subgroup of patients could benefit from combinatory
treatment. Thereby, elevated levels of secreted TNF-α and
expression of components of the necroptotic pathway might
help to predict the sensitivity to pro-necroptotic
therapies. Together, our results shed new light on the
molecular regulation of necroptosis by NF-κB and RIP1.
Moreover, we identify necroptotic cell death as an important
effector mechanism of 5-FU-mediated anti-tumoral activity.
On the basis of this study, we propose pan-caspase
inhibitors as a novel approach in the adjuvant chemotherapy
of CRC.},
