NSC 185058 (NSC-185058) is an inhibitor of ATG4B which is a major cysteine protease, and inhibition of ATG4B by NSC185058 markedly attenuates autophagic activity. NSC185058 acts by inhibiting autophagy and showing a negative impact on osteosarcoma tumors.
| Targets |
NSC 185058 is an antagonist of ATG4B.[1]

| ln Vitro |
NSC 185058 decreased ATG4B-induced conversion of LC3-I to lipidated LC3-II and inhibited the degradation of the autophagy substrate p62/SQSTM1 in GSC JKB3 cells treated for 72 hours.[1]
Treatment with NSC 185058 or chloroquine (CQ) decreased GSC JKB3 cell viability and sphere-forming frequency to similar extents after 72 hours of treatment.[1] In GSC JKB3 cells, inhibition of ATG4B by NSC 185058 sensitized cells to ionizing radiation (IR) by suppressing LC3B lipidation and increasing p62 levels. This molecular response was accompanied by decreased cell viability from the combination treatment (NSC + IR) compared to treatment with NSC 185058 or IR alone.[1] In GSC 23 cells, combined treatment of IR and NSC 185058 resulted in decreased cell viability compared to single-agent treatments.[1] Combined IR and NSC 185058 treatments in GSCs resulted in a pronounced reduction in mitotic cells due to G2 arrest and significant increases in apoptosis (measured by annexin V staining) compared to single-agent treatments.[1] |
| ln Vivo |
An antagonist of ATG4B is NSC185058. By reversibly altering ATG8 to encourage autophagosomes, ATG4B promotes autophagy. Radiation therapy (RT) has an enhanced antitumor activity when it contains ATG4B-conjugated NSC185058. NSC185058 was found to decrease the tumorigenicity of astroblastoma (GBM) cells and increase the antitumor activity of RT in an orthotopic GBM xenograft model [1].
In a subcutaneous tumor xenograft model using GSC M83 cells, treatment with NSC 185058 (150 mg/kg, i.p., every other day) significantly decreased tumor growth.[1] NSC 185058 did not enhance the effects of STK26 (MST4) knockout on M83 xenograft growth and autophagic activity in vivo.[1] In an intracranial GSC JKB3 xenograft model, monotherapy with NSC 185058 (150 mg/kg, i.p., Monday, Wednesday, Friday for 3 weeks) showed a growth-suppressive effect.[1] In the same intracranial model, all combination treatments of NSC 185058 with radiotherapy (IR) showed significantly increased anti-tumor activity relative to monotherapy. Co-administration and IR followed by NSC 185058 regimens performed the best, as indicated by bioluminescence monitoring and survival analysis.[1] Intracranial JKB3 and 23 GBM tumors treated with combined NSC 185058 + IR had significantly lower proliferation indices (by Ki-67 staining) compared to NSC 185058 or IR alone. Combination treatment also markedly decreased LC3B levels and increased apoptosis indicators (γH2AX and cleaved caspase-3).[1] Administration of NSC 185058 in the preclinical in vivo experiments, in amounts and at frequencies showing substantial anti-tumor activity, both as a single agent and especially in combination with RT, was well tolerated by animal subjects.[1] |
| Cell Assay |
For cell viability assays, GSCs with indicated treatments were plated in 96-well plates at 2000 cells per well. Cell viabilities were evaluated at indicated time points using a luminescent cell viability assay.[1]
For sphere-forming assays (limiting dilution assays), dissociated cells from glioma spheres were seeded in 96-well plates at various densities (e.g., 1, 5, 10, 20, or 50 cells per well for certain GSC lines). After 7 to 14 days, each well was examined for the formation of tumor spheres. Stem cell frequency was calculated using extreme limiting dilution analysis.[1] For apoptosis assay, cells were incubated with an anti-Annexin V antibody and Propidium Iodide and analyzed by flow cytometry. Cells without staining were used as negative controls.[1] For cell cycle analyses, cultured cells were pulsed with a DNA dye stain for 30 minutes followed by processing for fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS).[1] For analysis of autophagy markers by immunoblotting (Western blot), cells were lysed in RIPA buffer containing protease and phosphatase inhibitors. Protein samples were quantified, subjected to SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and probed with antibodies against proteins such as LC3B and p62.[1] For the analysis of ATG4B-mediated cleavage of a FRET-LC3B fusion protein substrate, purified FRET-LC3B protein was mixed with cell lysates from GSCs in an appropriate buffer. After incubation at 37°C, the reaction was stopped, and samples were separated by SDS-PAGE and examined by Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining to assess cleavage.[1] |
| Animal Protocol |
For subcutaneous tumor xenograft studies, 1x10^6 GSC M83 cells in 100 μl PBS were injected subcutaneously into athymic nude mice. When palpable tumors formed, tumor-bearing mice were treated by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection with NSC 185058 (150 mg/kg) or vehicle control (peanut oil) on alternating days. Mice were euthanized when tumor size reached approximately 1500 mm³ or when pathological symptoms developed. Tumor volume was estimated using the formula V = ab²/2, where a and b (a > b) are the tumor's length and width.[1]
For intracranial xenograft models treated with radiation and NSC 185058, mice stereotactically transplanted with GSC JK83 or 23 cells were randomized into six treatment groups: 1) vehicle control (peanut oil), 2) NSC 185058 alone, 3) radiation alone, 4) concurrent NSC 185058 and radiation, 5) sequential radiation followed by NSC 185058, and 6) sequential NSC 185058 followed by radiation. The NSC 185058 treatment groups received the drug at a dose of 150 mg/kg by i.p. injection on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for three weeks. The radiation groups received 2 Gy per day for five consecutive days. Treatment started one week after transplantation. Tumor growth was monitored by bioluminescence imaging after injecting D-luciferin. Mice were monitored for neurological symptoms and euthanized when symptoms developed.[1] For bioluminescence imaging, tumor-bearing mice were injected with D-luciferin (300 mg/kg) before isoflurane anesthesia. Radiance was measured 15 minutes after substrate injection using an imaging system.[1] |

| Additional Infomation |
NSC 185058 is a small molecule inhibitor targeting ATG4B. [1]
This study identified an autophagy-promoting MST4-ATG4B signaling pathway in glioblastoma (GBM). Pharmacological inhibition of ATG4B using NSC 185058 reduced autophagy activity, decreased the tumorigenicity of GBM cells, and enhanced the antitumor activity of radiotherapy in an orthotopic GBM xenograft model. [1] Combined therapy (simultaneous or sequential) affects the antitumor activity of NSC 185058 in combination with radiotherapy. [1] This study suggests that ATG4B may be a viable target for combination therapy of malignant tumors such as GBM, and provides a basis for developing small molecule drugs targeting ATG4B as clinical drugs.
