example 1

[0240] Example 1: siRNA silencing of the NPY Y5 receptor

[0241] Table 1. Loss of NPY5R expression

[0242]

example 2

[0243] Example 2: Cell Cycle Analysis

[0244] Breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-468 and lung cancer cell line A549 were purchased from ATCC. Cells were grown in medium recommended by ATCC, and the day before siRNA transfection a 6-well plate (2x10 per well 5 ) were plated in medium with 5.6 mM glucose.

[0245] The NPY5R siRNA pool was mixed from 4 individual duplexes purchased from Dharmacon. siRNA transfection was performed using Lipofectamine 2000 (Invitrogen) following the Invitrogen siRNA Transfection Scientific Pilot Program. A final 4OnM of siRNA was transfected into cultured cells.

[0246] Cells were harvested 3 days after siRNA transfection, washed once with PBS-0.1% BSA, and fixed with 75% ethanol-PBS-0.1% BSA at 40°C for at least 1 hour. - After washing twice with PBS-0.1% BSA, cells were stained overnight with 50 ug / ml propidium iodide and 10 ug / ml RNaseA in PBS. The next day cell cycle analysis was performed by flow cytometry ( figure 2 and image 3 ).

example 3

[0247] Example 3: Expression of NPY5R in various cancer cell lines

[0248] Expression of the Y5 receptor in cancer cell lines derived from several major cancer cell types (breast, lung, colon, prostate, and brain) was examined by Western blot ( Figure 4 ). High levels of NPY5R protein were detected in all cancer cell lines examined, consistent with its potential role in a wide range of cancers.

Abstract

The present invention relates to methods for treating cancer by administering a therapeutically effective amount of compound of formula (I), such as selective NPY5R antagonist MK-0557( trans-N-[l-(2-fluorophenyl)-3-pyrazolyl]-3-oxospiro[6-azaisobenzofuran-l(3H), 1'- cyclohexane]-4'-carboxamide ), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to a subject in need thereof The methods can further comprise administering a chemotherapeutic agent to the subject in need thereof.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 068,900, filed March 11, 2008, U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 126,909, filed May 8, 2008, U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 190,356, filed Aug. 28, 2008 , and the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 118,231, filed November 26, 2008. The entire teachings of the above multiple applications are hereby incorporated by reference. Background of the invention [0003] Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a 36-amino acid peptide, is a sympathetic neurotransmitter and is a potent neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of several aspects of neuroendocrine function and behavior (especially food intake). Appetite factor. (Heilig, M. and Widerlov, E., Crit. Rev. Neurobiol., 9:115 (1995)). Five types of NPY receptors have been characterized: Y1R, Y2R, Y4R, Y5R and Y6R. NPY is thought to exert multiple orexigenic functions mainly through its receptor subtypes NPY1R and NPY5R. Several ...
