The potential of iron chelators of the pyridoxal isonicotinoyl hydrazone
class as effective antiproliferative agents II: the mechanism of action of
ligands derived from salicylaldehyde benzoyl hydrazone and
2-hydroxy-1-naphthylaldehyde benzoyl hydrazone
DR Richardson and K Milnes

Jewish General Hospital, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
We have recently screened 36 analogues of the lipophilic iron (Fe)
chelator, pyridoxal isonicotinoyl hydrazone (PIH), for their
antiproliferative effect (Richardson et al, Blood 86:4295, 1995). Of these
compounds, 1 chelator derived from salicylaldehyde benzoyl hydrazone (206)
and 4 ligands derived from 2-hydroxy-1-naphthylaldehyde benzoyl hydrazone
(308, 309, 311, and 315) showed pronounced antiproliferative activity,
being far more effective than desferrioxamine (DFO). The present study was
designed to investigate in detail the mechanism of action of these PIH
analogues in a variety of neoplastic cell lines. This investigation showed
that the analogues were far more active than DFO at inhibiting cellular
proliferation and 3H-thymidine, 3H-leucine, and 3H-uridine incorporation.
Additional experiments showed that, in contrast to DFO, the 5 analogues
were potent at preventing 59Fe uptake from transferrin (Tf) and increasing
59Fe release from cells at concentrations as low as 10 micromol/L.
Examination of the distribution of 59Fe in neoplastic cells using native
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE)/59Fe-autoradiography showed that
most of the 59Fe taken up from Tf was incorporated into ferritin, although
3 other previously unrecognized components (bands A, B, and C) were also
identified. Band C comigrated with 59Fe-citrate and was chelated on
incubation of neuroblastoma cells with DFO, PIH, or the PIH analogues, with
this compartment being the main intracellular target of these ligands.
Further work showed that the effects of the chelators at inducing
characteristics consistent with apoptosis or necrosis were cell
line-specific, and while DFO increased the percentage of cells in the G0/G1
phases in all cell types, the effect of analogue 311 on the cell cycle was
variable depending on the cell line. This study provides further evidence
for the potential use of these Fe chelators as anticancer agents.
