ABSTRACT
Targeting the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a promising strategy for cancer therapy. Temsirolimus, a FDA-approved anticancer drug with eficacy in certain solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, is a potent mTOR inhibitor. In this work, we are the irst to provide preclinical evidence that temsirolimus is an attractive candidate for retinoblastoma treatment as a dual inhibitor of retino- blastoma and angiogenesis. We show that temsirolimus selectively inhibits growth, survival and migration of retinoblastoma cells while sparing normal retinal and ibroblast cells, with IC50 value that is within the clinically achievable range. Temsirolimus potently inhibits retinal angiogenesis via targeting biological functions of retinal endothelial cells. Our mechanism analysis demonstrates that temsirolimus inhibits retinoblastoma and angiogenesis via suppressing mTOR signalling and secretion of proangio- genic cytokines. In line within vitro data, we further demonstrate the inhibitory effects of temsirolimus on retinoblastoma and angiogenesis in in vivo xenograft mouse model. Our indings provide a preclinical rationale to explore temsirolimus as a strategy to treat retinoblastoma and highlight the therapeutic value of targeting mTOR in retinoblastoma.

1.Introduction
Retinoblastoma is the most common childhood primary intra- ocular cancer, with most cases initiated by a mutation of the tumor- suppressor gene retinoblastoma 1 (Rb1) [1,2]. Although surgery and/or chemotherapy has signiicantly improved outcome of reti- noblastoma, the clinical management of advanced retinoblastoma is still challenging [3,4]. The underlying mechanisms involved in invasion and metastasis are complex and not well understood. Retinoblastoma is characterized by molecular heterogeneity and extensive vascularization [5,6]. Substantial evidence establishes the clinical signiicance of iris neovascularization as one of the factors associated with retinoblastoma high-risk features and metastasis [7]. Given the important roles of neovascularization/angiogenesis in retinoblastoma growth, survival and metastasis, targeting angiogenesis has garnered attention for retinoblastoma treatment [8]. Identiication of drugs that target both tumor cells and angio- genesis is critical to improve the clinical management of retinoblastoma patients.Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine- speciic kinase complex regulating cell growth, motility, survival, protein synthesis and transcription [9]. Activation of mTOR pathway is mediated through growth factor receptor signalling, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinse (PI3K) and Akt/protein kinase B pathway. PI3K/Akt/mTOR signalling axis is central to the trans- formed phenotype of most cancer cells [10]. mTOR phosphorylates and activates p70 S6 kinase, leading to enhanced translation of ri- bosomal proteins and elongation factors, including hypoxia- inducible factor 1a (HIF 1a). HIF 1a regulates the transcription of genes that stimulate angiogenesis, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) [11]. mTOR inhibition has been shown to effectively target multiple biological functions of tumor cells and angiogenesis [12,13].Temsirolimus is a FDA-approved mTOR-targeted drug for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma [14]. In this work, we investigated the effects of temsirolimus at clinically relevant con- centrations on both retinoblastoma and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. We further investigated whether temsirolimushas selective anti-retinoblastoma activity using retinal and ibroblast cells as normal control. Our indings demonstrate that temsirolimus is a dual inhibitor of retinoblastoma and angiogenesis, most likely via inhibiting mTOR signalling and secretion of proangiogenic cytokines.
2.Materials and methods
2.1.Cells and reagents
Human retinoblastoma cell lines Y79, WERI-Rb-1 and RB116 were cultured according to our previous study [15]. Immortalized normal retinoblastoma pigmented epithelial cell line (RPE-1, ATCC, US) and normal human ibroblast BJ-5ta were cultured according to manufactures’ instructions. Human primary retinal microvascular endothelial cell (HREC) (Cell Systems Inc. US) were cultured in basal M131 medium (Invitrogen, CA) supplemented with microvascular growth supplement (Invitrogen, CA). Temsirolimus (Sigma, US) and human recombinant vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF, Abcam) were reconstituted in DMSO and water, respectively.
2.2.Measurement of proliferation and apoptosis
Cells were seeded in 96-well plate and 12-well plate for prolif- eration (104 cell/well) and apoptosis (106 cell/well) assays. Cells were treated with temsirolimus for 72 h. Cell proliferation activity was determined using BrdU Cell Proliferation Assay Kit (BioVision Inc. US) followed by absorbance measurement on microplate reader. Apoptosis was determined using Annexin V/7-AAD kit (BD Pharmingen, US) followed by flow cytometry on a Beckman Coulter FC500.
2.3.In vitro capillary tube formation
ECMatrix solution ((Chemicon Inc, USA) was thawed on ice. 150 ml ECMatrix were added to 96-well plate and then placed in 37 。C. 2 x 104 HREC cells and temsirolimus at various concentra- tions were suspended in 50 ml of basal M131 medium containing were gently plated onto the polymerized complete Matrigel. Capillary network was formed after 6 h incubation and docu- mented using an inverted microscope (Zeiss, Germany).
2.4.Boyden Chamber migration assay
Migration assay was performed using the Boyden chamber consisting an 8 mM Falcon cell culture insert. HREC and temsir- olimus at various concentrations were suspended in basal M131 medium and placed in the gelatin-coated cell culture insert. VEGF at 10 ng/ml with basal M131 medium were placed on the lower chamber. After 6 h treatment, non-migrated cells on the upper surface of the insert were removed with a cotton swab. Migratory cells on the lower surface of inserts were ixed with 10% formalin, stained with 0.4% Giemsa (Sigma, US) and then counted under using light microscope (Zeiss, Germany).
2.5. Endothelial cell adhesion assay
Quantitative endothelial cell adhesion was determined using VybrantTM Cell Adhesion Assay. HREC was pre-labelled with cal- cein and together with temsirolimus were seeded onto 0.2% gelatin-coated plate together. After 1 h incubation, non-adherent calcine-labelled cells were removed by gentle washing.The calcine-absorbancewas measured on fluorescence microplate reader according to manufacture’s instructions.
2.6. Western blot analyses
Cells were treated with temsirolimus for 24 h. Total proteins were extracted using RIPA lysis buffer (Thermo Scientiic, US) and fractionated by SDS-PAGE. The proteins were electro-transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane and blotted with designated pri- mary and secondary antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, US).
2.7.Measurement of supernatant VEGF and platelet-derived growth factor-AA (PDGF-AA)
5 x 105 cells were seeded onto 6-well plate and treated with temsirolimus for 24 h. The supernatant was collected. The levels of VEGF and PDGF-AA were measured using human VEGF and PDGF- AAELISA Kit (ThermoFish Scientiic, US) according to manufactures’ instructions. These kits are designed to detect native, non- recombinant VEGF and PDGF-AA in serum, plasma and cell cul- ture supernatant.
2.8.Retinoblastoma xenograft model
All procedure was conducted in accordance with the recom- mendations in the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Ani- mals of the National Institutes of Health. Retinoblastoma xenograft mouse model was generated using Y79 cells as previously described in our study [15]. Vehicle (20%/80% DMSO/saline) or 3 mg/kg intraperitoneal temsirolimus once per day was adminis- trated to mice. The tumor size was calculated using formula: (length)2 x (width)/2. After three weeks, tumors were isolated, frozen with liquid nitrogen and sectioned. Tumor sections were ixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, stained with primary antibodies against CD31 or VEGF (Cell Signalling, US), and then secondary antibody conjugated with horseradish peroxidase-DAB (3,30 -dia- minobenzidine). The nuclei were counterstained with hematoxylin (Sigma, US). Quantiication of staining was performed using Image J software.
2.9. Statistical analyses
In vitro experiments were performed at least thrice with duplicate or triplicate. Statistical analyses were performed by un- paired Student’s t-test, with P values < 0.05 considered statistically signiicant.
3.Results
3.1.Temsirolimus selectively targets retinoblastoma cells with normal cells largely unaffected
To investigate whether temsirolimus has selective anti- retinoblastoma activity, we performed proliferation, migration and survival assays on both retinoblastoma and normal cells exposed totemsirolimus at micromolar concentrations. Y79,WERI- Rb-1 and RB116 are genetically related but with different origins, morphologies, growth characteristics and karyotypes, and often used to model retinoblastoma in vitro [16]. RPE-1 and BJ-5ta represent normal retinal and ibroblast cell. We found that tem- sirolimus at 1 and 2 mM signiicantly inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis of retinoblastoma cells while sparing normal retinal and ibroblast cells (Fig.1A and B). Although temsirolimus at 4 mM signiicantly inhibited growth and survival of retinoblastoma as well as normal retinal and ibroblast cells, the degree of the in- hibition by 4 mM temsirolimus in normal cells is far less compared to that of 4 mM temsirolimus in retinoblastoma cells (Fig.1A and B). In addition, temsirolimus is more effective in inhibiting migration

Temsirolimus is more effective in inhibiting proliferation (A), inducing apoptosis (B) and suppressing migration (C) in retinoblastoma cells: RB116, Y79 and WERI-Rb1 than normal retinal cells RPE-1 and ibroblast cell BJ-5ta. *p < oral oncolytic 0.05, compared to control of retinoblastoma than normal cells (Fig. 1C). These results demonstrate that temsirolimus is potently against retinoblastoma cells and has selective anti-retinoblastoma activity.
3.2. Temsirolimus inhibits retinoblastoma angiogenesis via
targeting multiple biological functions of retinal endothelial cells
It is well known that angiogenesis plays essential roles in reti- noblastoma progression and metastasis, and anti-angiogenesis therapy is effective against retinoblastoma [7,17]. To determine whether temsirolimus also targets retinoblastoma angiogenesis, we irstly performed capillary network formation assay studying endothelial differentiation and modulation of endothelial tube formation by anti-angiogenic agents [18]. We plated primary hu- man retinal microvascular endothelial cell (HREC) on Matrigel which are enriched in extracellular matrix proteins, cytokines and growth factors. As shown in Fig. 2A control, HREC forms extensive capillary network within a few hours. In contrast, there was a gradual loss of tubular network formation in the presence of tem- sirolimus. Notably, hardly any capillary network was formed in the presence of temsirolimus at 4 mM (Fig. 2A). This demonstrate that temsirolimus is an angiogenesis inhibitor.Besides endothelial cell differentiation into capillaries, angio- genesis is characterized by a number of cellular events including endothelial cell migration, adhesion and growth. We found that temsirolimus also inhibited migration of HREC as assessed by Boyden Chamber migration assay (Fig. 2B). However, temsirolimus did not affect HREC adhesion (Fig. 2C). Consistent with retino- blastoma cells, temsirolimus inhibited growth and induced apoptosis in HREC (Fig. 2D and E). These results suggest that tem- sirolimus inhibits retinoblastoma angiogenesis via targeting mul- tiple biological functions of retinal endothelial cells.
3.3.Temsirolimus inhibits mTOR signalling and secretion of proangiogenic cytokines in retinoblastoma and HREC cells
Temsirolimus has been identiied as a speciic mTOR inhibitor with IC50 of ~2 mM [19]. Given the similar IC50 of temsirolimus on retinoblastoma and HREC cells and the fact that p70 S6 kinase- mediated protein synthesis is a critical step for vascular endothe- lial cell proliferation [20], we hypothesized that the inhibitory ef- fects of temsirolimus might be attributed to its ability in inhibiting mTOR, a molecule implicated in multiple tumor-promoting intra- cellular signalling pathways [14]. We assessed the mTOR signalling in temsirolimus-treated retinoblastoma and HREC cells using immunoblot analysis.We found that temsirolimus does- dependently inhibited mTOR phosphorylation at Ser2448 in WERI-Rb1 and HREC cells (Fig. 3A). Consistently, the phosphory- lation of two mTOR substrates: rS6 (ribosomal S6 protein) and 4EBP1 (eukaryotic initiation factor-4E-binding protein),at multiple sites, were suppressed by temsirolimus. As a consequence of mTOR signalling inhibition, decreased level of c-myc and Cyclin D1 were

VEGF and PDGF-AA protein in supernatant were measured by ELISA. *p < 0.05, compared to control. observed in cells exposed totemsirolimus.We further examined the effect of temsirolimus on the release of proangiogenic cytokines by measuring the level of VEGF and PDGF- AA secreted in the supernatants of WERI-Rb1 and HREC cells using ELISA. We detected signiicant less VEGF and PDGF-AA in the su- pernatants of cells after temsirolimus treatment (Fig. 3B and C), suggesting that temsirolimus inhibits the release of proangiogenic cytokines in retinoblastoma and retinal endothelial cells. Addi- tionally, the basal level of both VEGF and PDGF-AA is lower in retinal 2Aminoethyl endothelial cells than retinoblastoma. Taken together, these results show that temsirolimus inhibits mTOR signalling and secretion of proangiogenic cytokines in retinoblastoma and HREC cells.
3.4. Temsirolimus inhibits retinoblastoma, angiogenesis and suppresses secretion of proangiogenic cytokine in vivo
We further challenged temsirolimus on retinoblastoma xeno- graft mouse model to determine whether temsirolimus inhibits retinoblastoma and angiogenesis in vivo. We established retino- blastoma xenograft model using the same method reported in our previous study [15]. After development of palpable tumor, mice were randomized to receive vehicle and temsirolimus for 3 weeks. We monitored the mice body weight and tumor size, and assessed tumor angiogenesis formation using CD31 marker and determined tumor VEGF level. We did not observe signiicant change on mice body weight (Fig. 4A), demonstrating that mice are well tolerated to 3 mg/kg temsirolimus. In contrast, we observed greatly reduced tumor growth in temsirolimus group (Fig. 4B). In line with our in vitro data, temsirolimus inhibited retinoblastoma angiogenesis as shown by the decreased CD31 staining (Fig. 4C and D). In addition, signiicant less VEGF protein level was observed in temsirolimus group (Fig. 4C andE). These results demonstrate that temsirolimus inhibits retinoblastoma, angiogenesis and suppresses secretion of proangiogenic cytokines in vivo.
4.Discussion
Angiogenesis inhibition by speciic angiogenesis inhibitors such as bevacizumab or other anti-angiogenic proteins such as pigment epithelium-derived factor has been shown to effectively target retinoblastoma without producing signiicant systemic toxicity [17,21]. However, the survival beneits of anti-angiogenic drugs in cancer patients have been rather modest because many angio- genesis inhibitors have minimal direct effects on tumor cells themselves. Combining chemotherapeutic agents with angiogen- esis inhibitors or identifying drugs that have both anti-cancer and anti-angiogenic activities represents a more effective therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment [22]. In this work, we analysed the effects of temsirolimus on retinoblastoma and angiogenesis using in vitro cell culture and in vivo xenograft mouse models, and conirmed the underlying mechanism. Temsirolimus is an attrac- tive candidate as it is a FDA-approved anti-cancer drug for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma and generally well tolerated in patients [23]. Notably, temsirolimus has also been observed to have anti-angiogenic effects in a patient with refractory mantle cell lymphoma after 6 months treatment [24]. However, whether temsirolimus has anti-cancer and anti-angiogenic effects

(C) Representative immunohistochemistry images of tumor tissues showing CD31 (a marker of bloodvessel indicated by red arrow) and VEGF staining in control and temsirolimus-treated tumors.

The average number of vessels per microscopic ield, from three microscopic ields per tumor section were analysed. Results were presented as relative to control. *p < 0.05, compared to control. (For interpretation of the references to color in this igure legend, the reader is referred to the Web version of this article.) in retinoblastoma is unknown. Our indings demonstrate that temsirolimus, at clinically achievable concentration,is active against retinoblastoma as well as angiogenesis, via suppressing mTOR signalling and secretion of proangiogenic cytokines.
We demonstrated the anti-proliferative, anti-migratory and pro-apoptotic effects of temsirolimus on three retinoblastoma cell lines with IC50 that is clinically achievable (Fig.1). This is consistent with the previous work on the anti-cancer activities of temsir- olimus in a variety of cancers including hepatocellular carcinoma, lymphoma, pleural mesothelioma and colorectal cancer [25e28]. Additionally, the retinoblastoma cells that temsirolimus is active against express stem cell markers (eg, Nanog and Oct3/4) and retinal progenitor markers (eg, PAX6 and CHX10) [29,30], sug- gesting that temsirolimus might be effective in targeting cancer stem cells. Of note, we further demonstrated the selective anti- retinoblastoma activity of temsirolimus by showing that temsir- olimus is more effective to retinoblastoma cells than normal retinal and ibroblast cells (Fig. 1). Our results support the clinical indings on the safety and tolerability of temsirolimus in patients with breast and renal cancer that temsirolimus displays no immuno- suppressive effects with manageable and reversible adverse events at high does up to 220 mg/m2 [31].A signiicant inding of our work is the identiication of anti- angiogenic activity of temsirolimus. We show that temsirolimus inhibits retinal endothelial cell differentiation into capillary network, migration, growth and survival without affecting adhe- sion (Fig. 2). Our results suggest that temsirolimus is also an angiogenesis inhibitor. The ability of temsirolimus in targeting both cancer cells and angiogenesis distinguishes it from anti-cancer compounds that only target cancer cells. The dual inhibitory ef- fects of temsirolimus on retinoblastoma and angiogenesis are further validated in in vivo xenograft mouse model (Fig. 4AeD).
Mechanistically, we show that the dual inhibitory effects of temsirolimus are attributed to its ability in inhibiting mTOR. We demonstrate that temsirolimus suppresses phosphorylation of mTOR and its downstream effectors rS6 and 4EBP1 in retinoblas- toma and HREC cells (Fig. 3A), which is in agreement with the previous indings that temsirolimus is a mTOR inhibitor [14]. A signiicant reduction of proangiogenic cytokines such as VEGF and PDGF-AA in the supernatant of retinoblastoma and HREC cells are detected (Fig. 3B and C). We speculate that this is due to the ability of temsirolimus in inhibiting mTOR signalling, which regulates the transcription of genes that stimulate angiogenesis [11]. Impor- tantly, the decreased VEGF protein level is observed in retinoblas- toma mouse model receiving temsirolimus (Fig. 4C and E), suggesting that temsirolimus decreases proangiogenic cytokines and thereby tumor angiogenesis, most likely via inhibiting mTOR signalling.In conclusion, we are the irst to indicate the dual inhibitory effects of temsirolimus and provide a rational for the clinical trials evaluating temsirolimus for the treatment retinoblastoma. Our indings also highlight mTOR as a critical therapeutic target in retinoblastoma.
