Abstract
AbstractBackground and PurposeChaperone‐mediated autophagy (CMA) is a selective type of autophagy targeting protein degradation and maintains high activity in many malignancies. Inhibition of the combination of HSC70 and LAMP2A can potently block CMA. At present, knockdown of LAMP2A remains the most specific method for inhibiting CMA and chemical inhibitors against CMA have not yet been discovered.Experimental ApproachLevels of CMA in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissue samples were confirmed by tyramide signal amplification dual immunofluorescence assay. High‐content screening was performed based on CMA activity, to identify potential inhibitors of CMA. Inhibitor targets were determined by drug affinity responsive target stability‐mass spectrum and confirmed by protein mass spectrometry. CMA was inhibited and activated to elucidate the molecular mechanism of the CMA inhibitor.Key ResultsSuppression of interactions between HSC70 and LAMP2A blocked CMA in NSCLC, restraining tumour growth. Polyphyllin D (PPD) was identified as a targeted CMA small‐molecule inhibitor through disrupting HSC70–LAMP2A interactions. The binding sites for PPD were E129 and T278 at the nucleotide‐binding domain of HSC70 and C‐terminal of LAMP2A, respectively. PPD accelerated unfolded protein generation to induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation by inhibiting HSC70–LAMP2A–eIF2α signalling axis. Also, PPD prevented regulatory compensation of macroautophagy induced by CMA inhibition via blocking the STX17–SNAP29–VAMP8 signalling axis.Conclusions and ImplicationsPPD is a targeted CMA inhibitor that blocked both HSC70–LAMP2A interactions and LAMP2A homo‐multimerization. CMA suppression without increasing the regulatory compensation from macroautophagy is a good strategy for NSCLC therapy.
