NR4A1 (TR3, Nur77) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors and there is evidence that this receptor is highly expressed in multiple tumor types. Moreover, RNA interference studies indicate that NR4A1 exhibits growth promoting, angiogenic and prosurvival activity in most cancers. This review summarizes studies on several apoptosis-inducing agents that activate nuclear export of NR4A1 which subsequently forms a mitochondrial NR4A1-bcl-2 complex that induces the intrinsic pathway for apoptosis. Cytosporone B and related compounds that induce NR4A1-dependent apoptosis in cancer cells through both modulation of nuclear NR4A1 and nuclear export are also discussed. A relatively new class of diindolylmethane analogs (C-DIMs) including 1,1-bis(3′-indolyl)-1-(p-methoxyphenyl)methane (DIM-C-pPhOCH3) (NR4A1 activator) and 1,1-bis(3′-indolyl)-1-(p-hydroxyphenyl)methane (DIM-C-pPhOH) (NR4A1 deactivator) are discussed in more detail. These anticancer drugs (C-DIMs) act strictly through nuclear NR4A1 and induce apoptosis in cancer cells and tumors. It is clear that NR4A1 plays an important pro-oncogenic role in cancer cells and tumors, and there is increasing evidence that this receptor can be targeted by anticancer drugs that induce cell death via NR4A1-dependent and -independent pathways. Moreover, since many of these compounds exhibit relatively low toxicity, they represent an important class of mechanism-based anticancer drugs with excellent potential for clinical applications.
