Antitumor Potential of Selenium Nanoparticles (SeNPs) Against Multiple Myeloma Model in RPMI8226 Cells

ABSTRACT Prostate cancer are the most common, malignant and lethal tumors in men, and the complexity of prostate cancer (CaP) is also due to the diverse metastasis profile. Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have been reported to have potent antitumor activity, but whether it impacted the tumor metastasis is not fully clear. Here, we confirmed that SeNPs could inhibit the CaP cell migrations and invasions. Combined with our previous findings, we identified a series of microRNAs that could be upregulated significantly under SeNP treatment, among which miR-155-5p acts as a key component in mediating the SeNP-inhibited migration and invasion of CaP cells, through directly targeting IκB kinase ɛ and Sma- and Mad-related protein 2. The cell-based results were proved in xenograft mice modeling. These results have evidently signified the antitumor potential of SeNPs in the treatment of prostate cancer.

Clinical Research Data

The ubiquitin–proteasome pathway is a principle intracellular mechanism for controlled protein degradation and has recently emerged as an attractive target for anticancer therapies, because of the pleiotropic cell-cycle regulators and modulators of apoptosis that are controlled by proteasome function. In this chapter, we review the current state of the field of proteasome inhibitors and their prototypic member, bortezomib, which was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of advanced multiple myeloma. Particular emphasis is placed on the pre-clinical research data that became the basis for eventual clinical applications of proteasome inhibitors, an overview of the clinical development of this exciting drug class in multiple myeloma, and a appraisal of possible uses in other haematological malignancies, such non-Hodgkin's lymphomas.
