Abstract | Statins are inhibitors of the mevalonic acid pathway that mediates cellular metabolism by producing cholesterol and isoprenoids and are widely used in treating hypercholesterolaemia in humans. Lipophilic statins, including simvastatin, induce death in various tumour cells. However, the cytotoxic mechanisms of statins in tumour cells remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to elucidate the cytotoxic mechanisms of simvastatin in canine lymphoma cells. Simvastatin induced cell death via c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation and autophagy in canine T-cell lymphoma cell lines Ema and UL-1, but not in B-cell lines. Cell death was mediated by induction of caspase-dependent apoptosis in UL-1 cells, but not in Ema cells. Blockade of autophagy by lysosomal inhibitors attenuated simvastatin-induced JNK activation and cell death. Isoprenoids, including farnesyl pyrophosphate and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, attenuated simvastatin-induced autophagy, JNK activation, and cell death. In UL-1 cells, simvastatin treatment resulted in the cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase, which was altered to G0/1 phase cell cycle arrest by treatment with lysosomal inhibitors. These findings demonstrate that depletion of isoprenoids by simvastatin induces autophagy-mediated cell death via downstream JNK activation and cell cycle dysregulation in canine T-cell lymphoma cells. |
