Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is a highly ubiquitous and conserved serine/threonine kinase that forms a tetramer consisting of a catalytic subunit (CK2 alpha) and a regulatory subunit (CK2 beta). Despite being ubiquitous, CK2 is commonly found at higher expression levels in cancer cells, where it inhibits apoptosis, and supports cell migration and proliferation. The Ca2+-activated chloride channel TMEM16A shows similar effects in cancer cells: TMEM16A increases cell proliferation and migration and is highly expressed in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC) as well as other malignant tumors. A microscopy-based high-throughput screening was performed to identify proteins that regulate TMEM16A. Within this screen, CK2 was found to be required for proper membrane expression of TMEM16A. small interfering (si) RNA-knockdown of CK2 reduced plasma membrane expression of TMEM16A and inhibited TMEM16A whole cell currents in (cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelial) CFBE airway epithelial cells and in the head and neck cancer cell lines Cal33 and BHY. Inhibitors of CK2, such as TBB and the preclinical compound CX4549 (silmitasertib), also blocked membrane expression of TMEM16A and Ca2+-activated whole cell currents. siRNA-knockout of CK2 and its pharmacological inhibition, as well as knockdown or inhibition of TMEM16A by either niclosamide or Ani9, attenuated cell proliferation. Simultaneous inhibition of CK2 and TMEM16A strongly potentiated inhibition of cell proliferation. Although membrane expression of TMEM16A is reduced by inhibition of CK2, our data suggest that the antiproliferative effects by inhibition of CK2 are mostly independent of TMEM16A. Simultaneous inhibition of TMEM16A by niclosamide and inhibition of CK2 by silmitasertib was additive with respect to blocking cell proliferation, while cytotoxicity was reduced when compared to solely blockade of CK2. Therefore, parallel blockade TMEM16A by niclosamide may assist with anticancer therapy by silmitasertib.
