ABSTRACT
Clemastine is an antagonist of histamine H1 receptor may provide benefits in the treatment of osteosarcoma (OS). In the current study, we used hyperthermia approach to sensitize OS cells to clemastine-mediated cell death. Osteosarcoma U-2 OS and Saos-2 cells were treated with clemastine at 37°C, followed by 42°C for 2 h, and released at 37°C for 6 h. The impact of clemastine and hyperthermia on OS cell survival and autophagy-mediated cell death was investigated. Exposure of U-2 OS and Saos-2 cells to clemastine and hyperthermia (42°C) inhibited dose-dependent clemastine-mediated cell survival by increasing cell apoptosis. Hyperthermia and clemastine exposure modulated inflammatory and unfolded protein response (UPR) signaling differentially in U-2 OS and Saos-2 cells. Exposure of U-2 OS and Saos-2 cells to hyperthermia and clemastine inhibited AKT/mTOR and induced expression of the autophagy biomarkers LC3B II and LC3-positive puncta formation. The inhibition of autophagy by 3-methyladenine blocked hyperthermia and clemastine-mediated induction of LC3B II, LC3-positive puncta formation, and OS cell apoptosis. These results indicate that clemastine and hyperthermia sensitize OS cell lines by inducing increased autophagic cell death. Collectively, our data suggest that hyperthermia along with antihistamine therapy may provide an improved approach for the treatment of OS.
