Abstract The ataxia telangiectasia mutated ATM and the ATM- related ATR kinases play a central role in facilitating the resistance of cancer cells to genotoxic treatment regimens. The components of the ATM and ATR regulated signaling pathways thus provide attractive pharmacological targets since their inhibition enhances cellular sensitivity to chemo- and radiotherapy. Caffeine as well as more specific inhibitors of ATM KU55933 or ATM and ATR CGK733 have recently been shown to induce cell death in drug-induced senescent tumor cells. Addition of these agents to cancer cells previously rendered senescent by exposure to genotoxins suppressed the ATM mediated p2l expression required for the survival of these cells. The precise molecular pharmacology of these agents however is not well characterized. Herein we report that caffeine CGK733 and to a lesser extent KU55933 inhibit the proliferation of otherwise untreated human cancer and nontransformed mouse fibroblast cell lines. Exposure of human cancer cell lines to caffeine and .
