Homologous Recombination and Alternative End-Joining Repair Pathways are Important Determinants of Radiosensitivity to Proton Radiotherapy. (PubMed, Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys)
The observed genotype-specific or drug-induced increase in radiosensitivity towards proton beam radiotherapy highlights the promise of genetic profiling of DSB repair defects for biology-driven patient stratification and the use of PARP-inhibitors in guiding personalized proton radiotherapy strategies.

Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated kinase inhibition overcomes gemcitabine resistance in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma via DNA ligase I-dependent repair vulnerability. (PubMed, Cancer Gene Ther)
In xenograft models, AZD0156 combined with cisplatin substantially suppressed tumor growth compared to monotherapy, with acceptable tolerability profiles. These findings identify ATM inhibition as a promising strategy to overcome gemcitabine resistance in CCA, particularly in tumors with compromised alt-NHEJ repair capacity, providing a mechanistic rationale for clinical development of this combination therapy.

Orthogonally targeted tumor radiosensitization using cell penetrating peptide-ATM inhibitor conjugates to stimulate anti-tumor immune responses. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
Finally, the combination of radiotherapy and ACPP-AZD0156 potentiated immune checkpoint inhibitors that resulted in durable tumor control. The therapeutic synergies of ACPP targeted ATM inhibitor to radiosensitize and stimulate anti-tumor immune responses provides a rationale for developing tumor-targeted radiosensitizer drug conjugates that restrict radiosensitization to cancer cells that then engages anti-tumor immune responses to improve cancer patient outcomes.

Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated activation mediates transforming growth factor beta signaling in acetaminophen-induced liver injury in mice. (PubMed, Physiol Rep)
Pretreatment with an ATM inhibitor, KU55933, attenuated APAP-induced hepatocyte damage and resulted in attenuated mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 2/3 (SMAD2/3) signaling with no changes in activated TGFβ1 levels, suggesting that ATM activation modulates TGFβ1 signaling via post-translational mechanisms. APAP was found to promote transforming growth factor beta receptor 2 (TGFβRII) stabilization through activation of phosphorylated casitas B-lineage lymphoma (p-c-cbl) and subsequent neddylation of TGFβRII, which was attenuated by inhibitors of ATM signaling or neddylation machinery. In conclusion, APAP-induced hepatic DNA damage activates an ATM-mediated response that enhances TGFβ1 signaling through stabilization of TGFβRII, and inhibition of ATM consequently reduces APAP-induced hepatic injury.

ATM promotes bone metastatic propensity of breast cancer by inducing osteoclastogenesis via the NFκB-CCL2 pathway. (PubMed, Acta Pharmacol Sin)
In vivo experiments confirmed that ATM knockout (ATM KO) or treatment with small-molecule ATM inhibitor KU55933 markedly inhibited osteoclastogenesis of SK-BR-3 cells and the progression of breast cancer bone metastasis. Our results underscore the pivotal role of ATM in regulating NFκB-CCL2 expression and promoting the progression of breast cancer bone metastasis.

Comprehensive multi-omics data to construct hepatocellular carcinoma pathway subtypes and classification model. (PubMed, Comput Biol Chem)
Moreover, our analysis identified six subtype-specific drugs, such as KU_55933 and Cyclophosphamide, that were more sensitive to PS1. In conclusion, this study successfully constructed and evaluated a pathway-based molecular subtype and classification model for HCC, thoroughly investigated the biological and multi-omics differences between subtypes. Additionally, the identification of three telomere-associated biomarkers offers guidance and a theoretical basis for personalized treatment and clinical use of drugs for HCC patients.

Increased efficacy of PARP inhibitors against cisplatin-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer cells mediated via ATR and ATM inhibition. (PubMed, Cell Death Discov)
Here, we studied three approved PARPi, niraparib, olaparib, and rucaparib in three ovarian cancer cell lines and their cisplatin-resistant sublines. Notably, cisplatin resistance was not directly correlated with PARPi resistance, and ATM and ATR inhibitors can increase PARPi activity against cisplatin-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer cells. Moreover, we demonstrated for the first time that cell adhesion-mediated resistance can contribute to PARPi resistance, which can also be alleviated by ATR and ATM.

Identification of biomarkers associated with mitophagy in bladder cancer. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
A total of 135 drugs differed in sensitivity between HRG and LRG, including KU.55933...Expression analysis showed that CTSK was significantly downregulated in the BLCA group, while MTERF3, SRC, and CSNK2B were significantly upregulated. In conclusion, CTSK, MTERF3, SRC, and CSNK2B laid the foundation for targeted therapy in the treatment of BLCA.
