The aim of this study was to evaluate the coexpression of caveolin-1 (CAV-1), angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1-R) and forkhead box Ml (FOXM1) in prostate and breast cancer cell lines, in comparison with normal cell lines. CAV-1, AT1-R and FOXM1 expression was determined by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis in the prostate cancer cell lines PC3, DU145 and LNCaP; prostate normal cell line PNT1A; breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231; and the normal breast cell line 184A1. A correlation between the expression levels of the investigated genes and their metastatic properties was determined by the Spearman's rank test (P<0.05) and Aspin-Welsch t-test, respectively. In prostate cell lines, a significant correlation was noted between CAV-1 and AT1-R expression and between FOXM1 and CAV-1 expression. A correlation between the expression levels of the investigated genes and their metastatic potential was also observed, with relatively high expression of all the investigated genes in the normal prostate cell line PNT1A. In comparison to prostate cancer cell lines, an adverse dependency between CAV-1, AT1-R, FOXM1 expression and metastatic potential was observed in the breast cancer cell lines. Relatively high expression of all tested genes was observed in the normal breast cell line 184A1, which was decreasing respectively with increasing metastatic potential of breast cancer cell lines. The results obtained here indicate that CAV-1, FOXM1 and AT1-R may be potential markers of tumorigenesis in certain types of cancer in vitro.

Actual Problem

The discovery for effective combinations of anticancer drugs for treatment for breast cancer is the actual problem in the experimental chemotherapy. In this paper we conducted a study of antitumor effect of the combination of sunitinib and bortezomib against MDA-MB-231 and SKBR-3 breast cancer cell lines in vitro. We found that bortezomib in non-toxic concentrations can potentiate the antitumor activity of sunitinib. MDA-MB-231 cell line has showed great sensitivity to the combination of bortezomib and sunitinib in vitro. Bortezomib and sunitinib caused reduced expression of receptor tyrosine kinases VEGFR1, VEGFR2, PDGFRa, PDGFRß and c-Kit on HER2- and HER2+ breast cancer cell lines

Significant Activity

Various 4-substituted phenyl semicarbazone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in vitro by NCI in the 3-cell line, one dose primary anticancer assay. Three compounds showed significant activity against breast MCF7 cell line and were further evaluated for potential anticancer activity in an in vitro human disease-oriented tumour cell line screening panel that consisted of 60 human tumour cell lines arranged in nine subpanels, representing diverse histologies. Leukemia, colon, ovarian and breast cancer cell lines were relatively more sensitive to these compounds than the other cell lines. The 4-carboxy substituted p-nitrobenzylidene phenyl semicarbazone (1c) emerged as the most active compound with average GI50 value (the molar drug concentration required for the 50% growth inhibition) of 28.6µM. This compound showed greater activity than methotrexate against NCI-H226(Lung), BT-549 and T-47D(Breast) cancer cell lines.

Sambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) banyak digunakan untuk mengobati berbagai penyakit di Indonesia dan negara-negara Asia lainnya. Dalam studi ini, ekstrak metanol dan etanol sambiloto yang diperoleh dari B2PTO Tawangmangu telah diuji terhadap sel lini kanker payudara T47D dan MCF-7 dan sel lini normal fibroblast HFL-1 menggunakan reaksi enzimatik 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoyl-2-yl) 2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT). Uji in vitro terhadap sel lini normal fibroblast HFL-1 menunjukkan bahwa 50 ppm ekstrak metanol sambiloto tidak menghambat pertumbuhan sel. Tetapi, ekstrak metanol dan etanolnya menghasilkan IC50 yang relatif rendah pada sel lini kanker payudara, yaitu 111 ppm dan 122 ppm pada sel lini MCF-7 dan 70 ppm dan 197 ppm pada sel lini T47D. Selain itu, campuran ekstrak sambiloto yang mengandung 25% ekstrak Thyponium divaricatum dan Anredera cordifolia memberikan daya hambat pertumbuhan pada sel kanker payudara MCF-7 yang lebih besar, dengan nilai IC50 masing-masing adalah 68 ppm dan 34 ppm. Kesimpulannya, total ekstrak metanol atau etanol sambiloto yang diperoleh dari Tawangmangu memiliki potensi sebagai sumber senyawa anti-kanker serta perlu kajian lebih lanjut.Kata kunci: Ekstrak Andrographis paniculata, MTT, sel lini normal, sel lini kanker, aktivitas anti kanker ABSTRACTSambiloto (Andrographis paniculata) is widely used as medicine to treat various diseases in Indonesia and other Asian countries. In this study, methanolic and ethanolic extracts of sambiloto collected from B2PTO Tawangmangu have been tested againts breast cancer cell lines of T47D and MCF-7 and normal fibroblast cell line of HFL-1 using enzymatic reaction of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazoyl-2-yl) 2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide (MTT). In vitro assay performed on normal fibroblast of HFL-1 cell line showed that 50 ppm of methanolic extract of sambiloto did not inhibit cell growth. However, methanolic and ethanolic extracts of sambiloto gave relatively low of IC50 on breast cancer cell lines which were 111 ppm and 122 ppm on the MCF-7 cell lines and 70 ppm and 197 ppm on the T47D cell lines, respectively. In addition, the mixture of sambiloto extract containing 25% of Thyponium divaricatum and Anredera cordifolia extracts confered greater growth inhibition on breast cancer cell line of MCF-7, where IC50 values were 68 ppm and 34 ppm, respectively. In conclusion, the total methanolic or ethanolic extract of sambiloto collected from Tawangmangu has potency as a source of anti-cancer compounds and needs further study.Key words: Andrographis paniculata extract, MTT, normal cell line, cancer cell lines, anti-cancer activity

e11536 Background: Lapatinib, afatinib and neratinib are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) of HER2 and EGFR growth receptors. A panel of breast cancer cell lines was treated with these agents and gefintib (EGFR inhibitor) and the expression pattern of a specific panel of genes investigated as a potential marker of early drug response. Methods: RNA was extracted from breast cancer cell lines (BT474, SKBR3 and MDAMB453) with differing HER2 expression patterns and sensitivity to lapatinib before and 12hrs after treatment with 1 µM of lapatinib, 150nM of afatinib, 150nM of neratinib or 1µM of gefitinib. Gene expression changes were measured by Taqman RT-PCR and RQ values were determined using the comparative cycle threshold (Ct) method. Results: The expression of RB1CC1, ERBB3, FOXO3a, NR3C1 was directly correlated with the degree of sensitivity of the cell line to lapatinib and was observed to “switch” from up-regulated to down-regulated in the HER2 expressing lapatinib insensitive cell line (MDAMD453). The CCND1 gene (functionally linked to the other four genes) demonstrated an inversely proportional response to drug exposure; showing a trend of strong down-regulation in lapatinib-sensitive lines. A similar expression pattern was observed following the treatment with both neratinib and afatinib. In contrast, gefitinib treatment, resulted in a completely different expression pattern change. Conclusions: In these HER2-expressing cell models, lapatinib, neratinib and afatinib treatment generated a common, characteristic and specific gene expression response, proportionate to the sensitivity of the cell lines to the HER2 inhibitor. Characterisation of changes in these genes shortly after drug treatment may therefore give a valuable predictor of the likely extent and specificity of tumour HER2 inhibitor response in patients, potentially guiding more specific use of these agents.

Abstract Metformin is used to treat patients with diabetes mellitus and that was found to lower the incidence of cancer. The present study investigated the effects of metformin on human bone-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSC) and their breast cancer cell line interactions. BM-MSCs were tested for growth stimulation and migration controlling activity on four breast cancer cell lines employing MTT tests, migration scratch tests and assays of the expression of adipokines in Western Blot arrays. Compared to breast cancer cell lines, metformin significantly inhibited the proliferation of BM-MSC lines. Pretreatment of BM-MSCs with metformin showed variable effects on breast cancer cell lines depending on the specific BM-MSC cancer line combination. Metformin significantly impaired the migration of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-436 in response to conditioned media (CM) of drug pretreated BM-MSCs. Metformin-induced alterations of adipokines by BM-MSC CM indicated increased osteogenic signaling and possibly impairment of metastasis. The anticancer activities of metformin seem to be the result of direct and indirect mechanisms. A lower metformin-induced protumor activity of BM-MSCs in the bone microenvironment seem to contribute to the anticancer effects of this drug in breast cancer patients.

Cell Line Model

Breast cancer cell lines are frequently used to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of the disease. However, a large proportion of cell lines are affected by problems such as mislabeling and cross-contamination. Therefore, it is of great clinical significance to select optimal breast cancer cell lines models. Using tamoxifen survival-related genes from breast cancer tissues as the gold standard, we selected the optimal cell line model to represent the characteristics of clinical tissue samples. Moreover, using relative expression orderings of gene pairs, we developed a gene pair signature that could predict tamoxifen therapy outcomes. Based on 235 consistently identified survival-related genes from datasets GSE17705 and GSE6532, we found that only the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the cell line dataset GSE26459 were significantly reproducible in tissue samples (binomial test, p = 2.13E-07). Finally, using the consistent DEGs from cell line dataset GSE26459 and tissue samples, we used the transcriptional qualitative feature to develop a two-gene pair (TOP2A, SLC7A5; NMU, PDSS1) for predicting clinical tamoxifen resistance in the training data (logrank p = 1.98E-07); this signature was verified using an independent dataset (logrank p = 0.009909). Our results indicate that the cell line model from dataset GSE26459 provides a good representation of the characteristics of clinical tissue samples; thus, it will be a good choice for the selection of drug-resistant and drug-sensitive breast cancer cell lines in the future. Moreover, our signature could predict tamoxifen treatment outcomes in breast cancer patients.
