Previous studies showed that the natural compound berbamine, from Chinese herb Berberis amurensis, selectively induces apoptosis of imatinib (IM)-resistant-Bcr/Abl-expressing leukemia cells from the K562 cell line and CML patients. Here, a series of new berbamine derivatives were obtained by synthesis. In this series, high to very high activity in vitro has been found. Compounds 2e, 2g, 3f, 3k, 3q and 3u exhibited consistent high anti-tumor activity for imatinib-resistant K562 leukemia cells. Their IC(50) values at 48h were 0.36-0.55 microM, whereas berbamine IC(50) value was 8.9 microM. Cell cycle analysis results showed that compound 3h could reduce G0/G1 cells. In particular, these compounds displayed potent inhibition of the cytoplasm-to-nucleus translocation of NF-kappaB p65 which plays a critical role in the survival of leukemia stem cells. These results suggest that berbamine could be a good starting point for the development of novel lead compounds in the fight against leukemia.[1]

Cell line, culture conditions, and growth assays [1]
Human chronic myeloid leukemia cell line imatinib-resistant-K562 (K562-R), which constitutively express endogenous p210Bcr/Abl oncoprotein, were grown in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum (FCS), 100 units/ml penicillin G, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin at 37 °C in a 95% air, 5% CO2 humidified incubator. K562-R cells expresse multipledrug resistance-1(MDR1) and are highly resistant to IM and conventional chemotherapeutic agents. Cell number and viabilities were monitored by hemocytomer and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, respectively. Detection of NF-κB p65 proteins [1] Leukemia cells were treated with berbamine (8 μg/ml) or berbamine derivatives (0.5 μg/ml), and total and nuclear cellular proteins were extracted using the Mammalian Protein Extraction Reagent (Pierce). NF-κB p65 protein was detected using Western blot. Flow cytometry [1] K562-R cells at a density of 2 × 105 cells/mL were treated with various concentrations of compound 3h (1.0 μg/ml, 2.0 μg/ml) for 48 h. The cells were harvested, washed with PBS and centrifuged. The fixation of cells was relized through the addition of 4 ml ethanol (70% ice-cold) and then keeping cells at 4 °C overnight until DNA staining. The fixed cells were treated with 100 μg/ml Rnase A in PBS for 1 h, followed by staining with 50 μg/ml propidium iodide in PBS in the dark. The DNA content of eukaryotic cells was then measured with flow cytometery. |

Additional Infomation |
A series of berbamine derivatives were synthesized and the anti-leukemia activity of them against imatinib-resistant K562 leukemia cell line was evaluated. Etherified, esterified or sulfonylated of the phenolic hydroxyl group of berbamine increased the cytotoxic activity of berbamine against leukemia cell lines significantly. Most compounds displayed potent cytotoxic activity in the micromolar range. Compounds 2e, 2g, 3f, 3k, 3q and 3u, whose IC50 values were 0.36 μM, 0.40 μM, 0.55 μM, 0.40 μM, 0.50 μM and 0.46 μM showed the best activity. In particular, these compounds also displayed potent inhibition of the cytoplasm-to-nucleus translocation of NF-κB p65 which is critical for survival of leukemia stem cells. The cell cycle analysis on K562-R cell line indicated that these compounds can reduce quiescent (G0/G1) phase cells, suggesting that berbamine derivatives may have potential to kill leukemia stem cells.[1]
