Цель исследования - изучение механизмов противоопухолевой активности ингибитора NOS Т1023 и оценка перспективности его дальнейшей разработки. Методика. В качестве опухолевой модели использована эпидермоидная КЛЛ, штамм которой получен из банка опухолевых материалов ФГБУ РОНЦ им. Н.Н. Блохина и поддерживался на самцах мышей C57BL6j. КЛЛ трансплантировали самцам мышей F1 (CBA´C57BL6j) путем подкожного введения 1,5×106 клеток карциномы в 0,1 мл суспензии на основе среды 199 в область латеральной поверхности правого бедра. Для сравнительной оценки противоопухолевой эффективности использовали ингибитор NOS под шифром Т1023, синтезированный в лаборатории радиационной фармакологии МРНЦ им. А.Ф. Цыба, и VEGF-ингибитор бевацизумаб (БВЗ). Животным первой опытной группы ежедневно, со 2 по 20 сутки вводили соединение Т1023 (60 мг/кг, в/б); второй опытной группы - трижды, на 2, 5 и 10 сут вводили БВЗ (12 мг/кг, в/б); третьей опытной группы - по этим схемам и в таких же дозах вводили и Т1023, и БВЗ (при комбинированном применении Т1023 вводили через 4 ч после введения БВЗ). Контрольным животным в качестве плацебо со 2 по 20 сутки вводили 0,9% раствор натрия хлорида (0,2 мл, в/б). Противоопухолевые эффекты оценивали, сравнивая размеры опухолевых узлов, длительность задержки роста и индекс торможения роста опухоли у контрольных и опытных животных. Гистологические методы исследования включали иммуноокрашивание на PCNA, CD31, пимонидазол и морфометрический анализ микроскопических изображений. Результаты сравнительных исследований показали, что соединение Т1023 и VEGF-ингибитор бевацизумаб (БВЗ) оказывают однонаправленное влияние на карциному легких Льюис (КЛЛ), сопровождающееся торможением роста и подавлением метастазирования неоплазии. Воздействие и Т1023, и БВЗ вызывало снижение содержания сосудов в перитуморальных зонах и в «горячих точках» ангиогенеза, усиливало гипоксию паренхимы КЛЛ и стимулировало апоптоз опухолевых клеток. При комбинированном применении Т1023 и БВЗ их антинеопластическая эффективность в отношении ингибирования ангиогенеза и девитализации опухолевых клеток соответствовала аддитивному действию. Заключение. Результаты позволяют предполагать, что основой противоопухолевой активности Т1023 является антиангиогенное действие и свидетельствуют о перспективности применения ингибиторов NOS в ангиостатической терапии солидных злокачественных новообразований в сочетании с имеющимися антинеоваскулярными средствами. The aim. Study of mechanisms of NOS inhibitor T1023 antitumor activity and estimation of its prospects for further development. Methods. Epidermoid Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) from N.N. Blokhin NMRCO bank of tumor materials was used as a tumor model. Maintenance of tumor cell culture was provided by intramuscular injection of tumor cells suspension to C57BL6j mice every 14 days. Then LLC cells were transplanted to male F1 mice (CBA´C57BL6j) by subcutaneous injection of 1,5×106 cells in 0,1 ml of 199 medium into the lateral surface of the right hip. Comparative studies of antitumor efficacy were carried out using NOS inhibitor T1023, synthesized in the laboratory of radiation pharmacology of A.F. Tsyb MRRC, and VEGF inhibitor Bevacizumab (BVZ). Mice from the first experimental group were injected intraperitoneally (ip) with compound T1023 at dose 60 mg / kg from day 2 to 20; animals from the second experimental group were treated with BVZ at dose 12 mg / kg ip at days 2, 5 and 10; the third experimental group received T1023 in combination with BVZ according to these schemes and at the same doses (T1023 was administered 4 hours after administration of BVZ). Mice from the control group received 0,9% sodium chloride solution (0,2 ml, ip) as a placebo daily from 2 to 20 days. Antitumor effects were assessed by comparing the tumor size, duration of tumor growth delay and the index of tumor growth inhibition in control and experimental groups. Histological examination methods included immunostaining on PCNA, CD31, pimonidazole and morphometric analysis of microscopic images. Results. Comparative studies have shown that compound T1023 and VEGF inhibitor Bevacizumab (BVZ) have unidirectional effects on Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC), accompanied by growth inhibition and suppression of metastasis of neoplasia. The effect of both T1023 and BVZ caused a decrease in vascular content in the peritumoral zones and in the “hot spots” of angiogenesis, increased the hypoxia in the LLC parenchyma, and stimulated apoptosis of tumor cells. The combined use of T1023 and BVZ, caused the antineoplastic efficacy against inhibition of angiogenesis and devitalization of tumor cells which was estimated as additive effect. Conclusion. The results suggest that the basis of antitumor activity of T1023 is the anti-angiogenic effect and indicate the prospects of using NOS inhibitors in the angiostatic therapy of solid malignant neoplasms in combination with available anti-neovascular agents.

Abstract Background Cytokeratin-positive interstitial reticulum cells (CIRCs), which are a subgroup of fibroblastic reticular cells (FRCs), are known to be present in the lymph nodes. There have been only a few cases of tumors derived from CIRCs. Case presentation We have reported a new case involving a CIRC tumor in a 75-year-old man and reviewed the literature. The resected mediastinal lymph nodes showed epithelial-like proliferation of large atypical round and polygonal epithelioid cells. The tumor cells expressed CK8, CK18, CAM5.2, AE1/AE3, epithelial membrane antigen, vimentin, fascin, and some FRC markers, which is consistent with the diagnosis of a CIRC tumor. Following chemotherapy, the CIRC tumor was observed to have responded very well and became difficult to confirm on imaging, but a small cell lung carcinoma developed 12 months later. Chemoradiotherapy was performed, but the patient passed away 29 months after the initial diagnosis. The autopsy revealed the recurrence of the CIRC tumor, residual small cell lung carcinoma, and a very small latent carcinoma of the prostate. The relapsed CIRC tumor cells had a spindle shape; they were highly pleomorphic and had invaded the superior vena cava. Conclusion We first reported autopsy findings of CIRC tumors and demonstrated the transformation of the tumor from the epithelioid cell type to the spindle cell type.

The growth kinetics of the Lewis lung carcinoma tumor was studied. The main proliferative parameters of an early stage of the growth (8th day after tumor implantation) were derived from the analysis of the growth curve and the fraction of labeled mitoses (FLM curve). The occurrence of proliferative changes due to the transplantation was confirmed. The main variations observed concern a shortening of the cell cycle time, a prolongation of the S phase duration and an increase in cell loss. A critical analysis of the results of this preliminary study is reported.

Aggregation mechanisms have been examined in a homologous system using heparinized human platelet-rich plasma with cell lines derived from human tumors. The A549 (epithelial lung carcinoma) and Hut23 (adenocarcinoma) did not aggregate platelets at 107 cells/ml. Other cell lines could not be classified by aggregation pattern alone since all gave biphasic or quasibiphasic patterns. HT 29 (adenocarcinoma) , SKBR3 (adenocarcinoma), HT 144 (melanoma) and Hut 20 (large cell lung carcinoma) were inhibited by apyrase and phospholipase D but not by hirudin: aggregation induced by this group is probably primarily dependent on ADP. Aggregation by SKNMC (mesothelioma) and Hut 28 (mesothelioma) was inhibited by hirudin and phospholipase D but not by apyrase. Aggregation by this second group probably involves activation of the clotting system in the early stages but can be differentiated from a similar mechanism with U87MG since thq latter is not inhibited by phospholipase D. Phospholipase C had no effect on any cell line and phospholipase A2 inhibited all cell lines, as did its hydrolytic product, lysolecthin. Platelet aggregating material (PAM) could not be isolated by urea extraction of any of these human tumor cells. These results suggest that various inhibitors are necessary to allow classification of mechanisms of tumor cell-induced platelet aggregation.
