Controlled production of cyclin dependent kinases (CDK) and stabilization of tumor suppressor genes are the most important factors involved in preventing carcinogenesis. The present study aimed to explore the cyclin dependent apoptotic effect of nymphayol on breast cancer MCF-7 cells. In our previous study, we isolated the crystal from a chloroform extract of Nymphaea stellata flower petals and it was confirmed as nymphayol (17-(hexan-2-yl)-10,13-dimethylhexadecahydro-1H-cyclopenta[a]phenanthren-3-ol) using x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and mass spectroscopy (MS) methods. The cytotoxic effect of nymphayol on MCF-7 cells were analyzed using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The cellular and nuclear damage was determined using propidium iodide (PI) and acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/ErBr) staining. Tumor suppressor and apoptosis related mRNA transcript levels were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Nymphayol potentially inhibits MCF-7 cell viability up to 78%, and the IC50 value was observed as 2.8 µM in 24 h and 1.4 µM in 48 h. Treatment with nymphayol significantly increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and the tunnel assay confirmed DNA damage. We found characteristically 76% apoptotic cells and 9% necrotic cells in PI and AO/ErBr staining after 48 h treatment with 2.8 µM of nymphayol. Gene expression analysis confirmed significantly (p ≤ 0.001) increased mRNA levels of cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (Cdkn2a), retinoblastoma protein 2 (pRb2), p53, nuclear factor erythroid 2-factor 2 (Nrf2), caspase-3, and decreased B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), murine double minute 2 (mdm2), and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) expression after 48 h. Nymphayol effectively inhibited breast cancer cell viability, and is associated with early expression of Cdkn2a, pRb2, and activation of p53 and caspases.

Abstract This study served as the pioneer in studying the anti-cancer role of chicken cathelicidin peptides. Chicken cathelicidins were used as anticancer agent against the breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) and human colon cancer cell line (HCT116). An in vivo investigation was also achieved to evaluate the role of chicken cathelicidin in Ehrlich ascites cell (EAC) suppression as a tumor model after subcutaneous implantation in mice. In addition, the mechanism of action of the interaction of cationic peptides with breast cancer cell line MCF-7 was also investigated. It was found during the study that exposure of cell lines to higher concentration of chicken cathelicidin for 72 h reduced cell lines growth rate by 90%-95%. These peptides demonstrated down-regulation of (cyclin A1 and cyclin D genes) which are essential for G1/S phase transient and S/G2 phase and consequently causes “prometaphase arrest” ultimately leading to death of MCF-7 cells. The study showed two- and three-times higher expression of the caspase-3, and − 7 genes respectively in MCF-7 cells treated with chicken peptides (especially cathelicidin-2 and − 3) relative to untreated cells which encouraged pro-apoptotic pathway, autophagy, and augmentation of the anti-proliferative activity. Our data showed that chicken ( CATH-1 ) enhance releasing of TNFα, INF-γ and upregulation of granzyme K in treated mice groups, in parallel, the tumor size and volume was reduced in the treated EAC-bearing groups after cathelicidin administration compared to untreated EAC-bearing group. Additionally, animals received high dose of cathelicidin-1 (40 µg/ml) displayed an apical survival rate compared to untreated carcinoma control and animals which received low dose of cathelicidin (10 and 20 µg/ml). Tumor of mice groups treated with chicken cathelicidin displayed high area of necrosis compared to untreated EAC-bearing mice. Based on histological analysis and immunohistochemical staining revealed that the tumor section in Ehrlich solid tumor exhibited a strong Bcl2 expression in untreated control compared to mice treated with 10 & 20 µg/ml of cathelicidin. Interestingly, low expression of Bcl2 were observed in mice taken 40 µg/ml of CATH-1. This study drive intention in treatment of cancer through the efficacy of anticancer efficacy of chicken cathelicidin peptides.

Objective: This study was designed to analyze the role of piperine in modulating P-glycoprotein mRNA expression when added in combination withtamoxifen to breast cancer cells in culture.Methods: MCF-7 breast cancer cells were treated with 1 μM tamoxifen with or without piperine (12.5, 25, or 50 μM) or verapamil 50 μM (P-glycoproteininhibitor positive control) for up to 12 days. We assessed the cell viability and isolated total RNA from them. We quantified P-glycoprotein expressionsusing quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.Results: Administration of various doses of piperine decreased MCF-7 breast cancer cell viability. Piperine, when given in combination with tamoxifen,decreased the expression of P-glycoprotein mRNA in cells compared with the expression in cells treated with tamoxifen only. The effects were shownto be dose dependent.Conclusion: Piperine prevents the development of breast cancer cell tamoxifen resistance, probably through its inhibition of P-glycoprotein expression.

Nobiletin (NOB) is one of the polymethoxyflavones mainly found in citrus fruits. Aromatase or cytochrome P450 (CYP19) enzyme catalyzes the last and rate-limiting step in estrogen biosynthesis. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of NOB on the activity and expression of aromatase, and to compare this property with letrozole (LET) as aromatase inhibitor in the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. Cell viability was assessed with 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. Aromatase enzyme activity based on the conversion of androgenic substrate testosterone into 17β-estradiol was determined. CYP19 gene expression was measured by quantitative real-time PCR. MTT assays demonstrated that NOB at a concentration of 100 μmol/L decreased cell viability in a time-dependent manner (P < 0.05). NOB significantly inhibited aromatase at the concentration of 0.1 μmol/L (P = 0.013), whereas other concentrations had no effect. Treatment with 10 μmol/L and 1 μmol/L of NOB for 48 h significantly increased (P = 0.001) and decreased (P = 0.02) relative aromatase expression, respectively. The combination of LET and NOB had no effect on aromatase. This study showed for the first time that NOB decreases the activity and expression of aromatase at low concentrations in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.

Abstract Background: Testis-specific gene antigen (TSGA10) mainly involves in spermatogenesis and embryogenesis. In the new defined roles, being a tumor suppressor agent or a cancer/testis antigen (CTA) is still unclear for this protein. The current study aimed to examine exact role of TSGA10 as a tumor suppressor or CTA in breast cancer and evaluate the role of microenvironment on its expression. Methods: This study evaluated the expression of TSGA10 and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in two different breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB23) as well as their control (MCF10A) using real-time PCR. Moreover, expression of the mentioned genes evaluated in samples obtained from tumoral tissues with two types of controls: paired (tumor-free margin) and unpaired (healthy individuals). Also, in order to asses TSGA10 levels in the tumoral tissues, western blotting was performed. Furthermore, to evaluate the role epigenetic changes on TSGA10 expression, breast cancer cell lines were treated with a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI) as well as H2O2 for oxidative stress induction. Results: The current study evaluated 36 patients diagnosed with breast cancer as well as 10 healthy controls. According to the results, it was shown that 35 (97.7%) and 1 (2.8%) of patients were diagnosed with ductal and lobular carcinomas respectively. The TSGA10 levels in the tumoral samples showed 1.38±0.014-fold decrease and 1.41±0.127-fold increase compared with their paired (P<0.001) and unpaired (P<0.001) controls respectively. Moreover, results of blotting in tumoral tissues expressed significant decrease in TSGA10 levels in comparison to the paired controls (P<0.01). Among the cell lines, TSGA10 expression in MCF-7 and MDA-MB23 cells had 4.9±0.283 and 4.21±0.163 folds of decrease in normoxic and 4.7±.0.283 and 7.1±0.141 folds of expression reduction in hypoxic condition respectively (all P<0.0001). Furthermore, the results showed that HIF-1α expression was up-regulated in both normoxic (P<0.01) and hypoxic (P<0.01) conditions. Also, TSGA10 expression increased up to 7.39±0.156 folds in MCF-7 cells after HDACI treatment (all P<0.01). However, MDA-MB23 cells firstly experienced a decrease and then a notable increase in TSGA10 expression (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Results of current study showed that TSGA10 seems to be tumor suppressor, however, further studies are necessary.
