Morphological Sign

The effect of triiodothyronine (T3) on the differentiation of cultured neuroblastoma (NB) cells was studied after 9 days of treatment with a dose of 10-4 M/106 cells per day. Using phase contrast microscopy, 30-50% of NB cells showed formation of neurites as a morphological sign of cellular differentiation. The initial rise of the mitosis rate was followed by a plateau. Changes in cyclic nucleotide content, in the triphosphates and in the activity of the enzyme ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) were assessed in 2 human and 2 murine cell lines to serve as biochemical parameters of the cell differentiation induced by T3. Whereas the cAMP level increased significantly (3 to 7 fold compared with its initial value), the cGMP value dropped to 30 to 50% of that of the control group. ATP and GTP increased about 200%, the ODC showed a decrease of about 50%. The present studies show a biphasic effect of T3 on neuroblastoma cells: the initial rise of mitotic activity is followed by increased cell differentiation starting from day 4 of the treatment.

Adjuvant Effect

Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common solid childhood tumor, and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is used as a treatment to decrease minimal residual disease. Molecular iodine (I2) induces differentiation and/or apoptosis in several neoplastic cells through activation of PPARγ nuclear receptors. Here, we analyzed whether the coadministration of I2 and ATRA increases the efficacy of NB treatment. ATRA-sensitive (SH-SY5Y), partially-sensitive (SK-N-BE(2)), and non-sensitive (SK-N-AS) NB cells were used to analyze the effect of I2 and ATRA in vitro and in xenografts (Foxn1 nu/nu mice), exploring actions on cellular viability, differentiation, and molecular responses. In the SH-SY5Y cells, 200 μM I2 caused a 100-fold (0.01 µM) reduction in the antiproliferative dose of ATRA and promoted neurite extension and neural marker expression (tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and tyrosine kinase receptor alpha (Trk-A)). In SK-N-AS, the I2 supplement sensitized these cells to 0.1 μM ATRA, increasing the ATRA-receptor (RARα) and PPARγ expression, and decreasing the Survivin expression. The I2 supplement increased the mitochondrial membrane potential in SK-N-AS suggesting the participation of mitochondrial-mediated mechanisms involved in the sensibilization to ATRA. In vivo, oral I2 supplementation (0.025%) synergized the antitumor effect of ATRA (1.5 mg/kg BW) and prevented side effects (body weight loss and diarrhea episodes). The immunohistochemical analysis showed that I2 supplementation decreased the intratumoral vasculature (CD34). We suggest that the I2 + ATRA combination should be studied in preclinical and clinical trials to evaluate its potential adjuvant effect in addition to conventional treatments.

Background: Azole antifungals are among the first-line drugs clinically used for the treatment of systemic candidiasis, a deadly type of fungal infection that threatens mostly immunecompromised and hospitalized patients. Some azole derivatives were also reported to have antiproliferative effects on cancer cells. Objective: In this study, 1-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)-2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethanone (3), its oxime (4), and a series of its novel oxime ester derivatives (5a-v) were synthesized and tested for their in vitro antimicrobial activities against certain ATCC standard strains of Candida sp. fungi and bacteria. The compounds were also tested for their cytotoxic effects against mouse fibroblast and human neuroblastoma cell lines. Molecular modeling studies were performed to provide insights into their possible mechanisms for antifungal and antibacterial actions. Methods: The compounds were synthesized by the reaction of various oximes with acyl chlorides. Antimicrobial activity of the compounds was determined according to the broth microdilution method. For the determination of cytotoxic effect, we used MTS assay. Molecular docking and QM/MM studies were performed to predict the binding mechanisms of the active compounds in the catalytic site of C. albicans CYP51 (CACYP51) and S. aureus flavohemoglobin (SAFH), the latter of which was created via homology modeling. Results: 5d, 5l, and 5t showed moderate antifungal activity against C. albicans, while 3, 5c, and 5r showed significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Most of the compounds showed approximately 40-50% inhibition against the human neuroblastoma cells at 100 µM. In this line, 3 was the most potent with an IC50 value of 82.18 μM followed by 5a, 5o, and 5t. 3 and 5a were highly selective to the neuroblastoma cells. Molecular modelling results supported the hypothesis that our compounds were inhibitors of CAYP51 and SAFH. Conclusion: This study supports that oxime ester derivatives may be used for the development of new antimicrobial and cytotoxic agents.
