Abstract

NEDDylation process regulates multiple physiological functions and signaling pathways, which are still in an equilibrium that favors the survival and proliferation of tumor cells. Unlike inhibitors, NEDDylation agonists are rarely studied. In this work, novel 1,2,4-triazine-dithiocarbamate derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antiproliferative activity against MGC-803, PC-3 and EC-109 cells. Among them, compound K3 displayed the most potent activity MGC-803, PC-3 and EC-109 cells with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 2.35, 5.71 and 10.1 μM, respectively, which were more potent than 5-FU. Further cellular mechanisms suggested that compound K3 inhibited the cell viability, induced proliferation inhibition, arrested cell cycle at G2/M phase and induced cell apoptosis in MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells. Importantly, compound K3 could interact with NAE1 to promote the NEDDylation of MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells. The promotion of NEDDylation resulted in the degradation of c-IAP and YAP/TAZ, which leads to the induction of cell apoptosis and inhibition of proliferation in MGC-803 and HGC-27 cells. Therefore, as a NEDDylation agonist, compound K3 could effectively inhibit gastric cancer cells. Here, we reported NEDDylation promotion induced by compound K3, which could inhibit the cancer cell lines MGC-803 and HGC-27 and induce the cancer cell apoptosis via prompting the degradation of c-IAP and YAP/TAZ.
