AbstractKallikrein-related peptidases (KLKs), includingKLK5, have been proposed as promising biomarkers for prostate cancer diagnosis and prognosis. In the present study, we report that distinct augmentations (up to 6.4-fold) ofKLK5mRNA expressional levels, calculated via quantitative real-time PCR, occur after treatment of DU145 cells with appropriate concentrations, determined by the MTT method, of docetaxel and mitoxantrone. Our data reveal the endogenous need of prostate cancer cells for modifiedKLK5expression to cope with the administration of chemotherapeutic drugs. Furthermore, it is proposed that the expression profile ofKLK5could serve as a putative biomarker for monitoring the treatment response in hormone refractory prostate cancer patients.

AbstractUse of nano carriers to treat cancer is attractive due to their advantages such as the sustained release of drugs and ability to target specific regions of the body where treatment is needed. However, loading water insoluble chemotherapeutic drugs into liposomes is challenging. In this study, we developed a method to encapsulate water-insoluble drug (piperlongumine) in liposomes by complexing piperlongumine with ß-Cyclodextrin. Liposomes encapsulated with piperlongumine incubated with COLO 205 and PC-3 cell lines and demonstrated that viability of COLO 205 and PC-3 cells decreases to 7% and 41% respectively when the piperlongumine concentration is at 20 μM.
