description | Dasatinib is a multitargeted kinase inhibitor used for treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Unfortunately, treatment of cancer patients with some kinase inhibitors has been associated with cardiotoxicity. Cancer treatment with dasatinib has been reported to be associated with cardiotoxic side effects such as left ventricular dysfunction, heart failure, pericardial effusion and pulmonary hypertension. Here we aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the cardiotoxicity of dasatinib. We found that among the resident cardiac cell types, cardiomyocytes were most sensitive to dasatinib-induced cell death. Exposure of cardiomyocytes to dasatinib attenuated the activity of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), which is a downstream target of dasatinib target kinase c-Src. Similar to dasatinib, c-Src depletion in cardiomyocytes compromised cardiomyocyte viability. Overexpression of dasatinib-resistant mutant of c-Src rescued the toxicity of dasatinib on cardiomyocytes, whereas forced expression of wild type c-Src did not have protective effect. Collectively, our results show that c-Src is a key target of dasatinib mediating the toxicity of dasatinib to cardiomyocytes. These findings may influence future drug design and suggest closer monitoring of patients treated with agents targeting c-Src for possible adverse cardiac effects. |
