In activated phagocytic cells, the membrane integrated protein gp91phox serves as the catalytic cytochrome b subunit of the respiratory burst oxidase used to generate superoxide in an NADPH-dependent manner for host defense (2). Generation of ROS has also been identified in non-phagocytic cells (3). One important enzyme involved in ROS production in non-leukocyte tissues is NADPH oxidase 1 (NOX1), a homolog of gp91phox. NOX1 is highly expressed in colon epithelial cells where it can generate ROS to interact with normal and pathogenic bacteria (3-5). However, excess ROS production is associated with damage to the intestinal mucosa, particularly in mucosal lesions of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (4). Studies showing that NOX1 levels are increased in human prostate cancer (6) and that cells overexpressing NOX1 have a transformed appearance, exhibit anchorage-independent growth, and induce vascularized tumor formation in athymic mice (3, 7), suggest that NOX1 may also play a role in angiogenesis, cell growth, and tumor pathogenesis (8, 9). The identification of inhibitors of NOX1 may lead to potential candidates for excess cell proliferation, cancer, and IBD. References: 1.

Panel Information Protocol Assay Overview: The purpose of this assay is to determine whether a compound that inhibits NOX1 can block invadopodia formation in DLD1 human colon cancer cells. Invadopodia are dynamic phosphotyrosine-rich structures with an actin core and abundant actin regulatory proteins (e.g. cortactin) capable of proteolytically degrading the ECM. They appear as actin protrusions of the ventral plasma membrane and their formation in human cancer cells correlates with their invasiveness both in vitro and in vivo. Recent evidence indicates that NOX-mediated ROS generation is required for invadopodia formation in different cancer cells. In this assay, cells are transfected with tyrosine kinase c-Src, which is required for the formation of functional invadopodia. Cells are then treated with test or control compounds, then stained with invadopodia markers phalloidin or cortactin, and then prepared for confocal and epifluorescence microscopy. As designed, a compound that inhibits NOX1 will inhibit invadopodia formation and result in fewer phalloidin- and contactin-positive structures. Protocol Summary: DLD1 cells were transfected with empty vector or with constitutive active Src (SrcYF) to trigger the formation of invadopodia and then treated for 1hr with compound SID 57287864, or DMSO or DPI which were used as negative or positive controls respectively. 24 hrs after transfection, DLD1 cells plated on glass or FITC-labeled gelatin-coated coverslips were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) at room temperature for 10 minutes. Successively, cells were permeabilized in 0.5% Triton for 10 minutes and blocked in 2%BSA in PBS for 45 minutes at room temperature. Cells were then immunolabeled as indicated in the figure legends with appropriate primary and Alexa-Fluor 568-conjugated secondary antibodies. F-actin was detected by using Alexa-Fluor 568-conjugated phalloidin. Cells were mounted on slides with Mowiol mounting medium (Calbiochem) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Epifluorescence images of fixed cells were acquired on an inverted microscope (Eclipse TE 2000-U, Nikon) equipped with an electronically controlled shutter, filter wheels, and a 14-bit cooled CCD camera (Cool SNAP HQ, Photometrics) controlled by MetaMorph software (Universal Imaging Corp.) by using a 60x/1.4 NA Plan Apo DIC or a 40x/1.4 NA Plan Apo Ph3 objective lens (Nikon). Confocal images were acquired on a spinning disk confocal microscope system, equipped with a CoolSnapHQ camera and 100x/1.4 NA Plan Apo or a 60x/1.4 NA Plan Apo objective lens (Nikon). A compound that exhibited a SEM of p < 0.05 compared to the DMSO control was declared active. PubChem Activity Outcome and Score: The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-100. There are no inactive compounds.
