Intracellular binding of cisplatin to non-DNA partners, such as proteins, has received increasing attention as an additional mode of action and as mechanism of resistance. We investigated two cisplatin-interacting isoforms of protein disulfide isomerase regarding their contribution to acquired cisplatin resistance using sensitive and resistant A2780/A2780cis ovarian cancer cells. Cisplatin cytotoxicity was assessed after knockdown of either protein disulfide isomerase family A member 1 (PDIA1) or protein disulfide isomerase family A member 3 (PDIA3). Whereas PDIA1 knockdown led to increased cytotoxicity in resistant A2780cis cells, PDIA3 knockdown showed no influence on cytotoxicity. Coincubation with propynoic acid carbamoyl methyl amide 31 (PACMA31), a PDIA1 inhibitor, resensitized A2780cis cells to cisplatin treatment Determination of the combination index revealed that the combination of cisplafin and PACMA31 acts synergistically. Our results warrant further evaluation of PDIA1 as promising target for chemotherapy, and its inhibition by PACMA31 as a new therapeutic approach. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
