N2 - The multi-kinase-inhibitor Sorafenib has been shown to prolong survival of patients suffering from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We investigated effects of the serine/threonine kinase inhibitor 2-Dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-1H-benzimidazole (DMAT) on experimental HCC growth, and identified mechanisms and target kinases of DMAT. Our results show that DMAT application in vivo reduced tumor growth in a xenotransplant model by interference with tumor cell proliferation. Biochemical parameters and histology following DMAT administration revealed no alterations in liver tissue. Similar to Sorafenib, DMAT interfered with NF?B activation and Wnt-signaling. Of the kinases inhibited by DMAT at almost equimolar IC50, CK2 and PIM-3 were found to be over-expressed or more active in hepatoma cells and human HCC tissue. Knockdown of PIM-3 or CK2 by shRNA revealed that both kinases are important for hepatoma cell proliferation and survival. In conclusion, DMAT reduces HCC growth by interference with NF?B- and Wnt-signaling. PIM-3 and CK2 seem to be important target kinases. Inhibition of these kinases by application of inhibitors, e.g., DMAT, might represent a promising therapeutic approach in future HCC therapy.
