Graphen oxide has emerged as a promising tool in medical biotechnology due to its outstanding properties applicable in several fields as well as cell imaging, drug and gene delivery. Monolayer structure and high surface area of Graphen benefits elevated loading capacity of drugs rather than other nanomaterials. However Graphen oxide in physiological solutions has unfavourable reactions which confine it’s application in biomedical field without additional surface functionalization. Coating of graphenoxide by polyethylenimine is an approach to enhance biocompatibility of graphen oxide and also provides desirable physicochemical features for oligonucleotides delivery. The data presented here is related to graphenoxide-PEI characterisation and it’s cytotoxicity assay on variouse breast cancer cell lines including MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 by MTT assay.

14050 Background: We evaluated whether combination of lapatinib, a dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor against EGFR and HER2, and fulvestrant, a full estrogen receptor antagonist, is superior in EGFR and HER2 overexpressing and non-overexpressing breast cancer cell lines regarding cell growth inhibition and effects on the protein expression level on special proteins such as PDK1 and ERK1/2. Methods: MTT assay and western blot analysis were performed in the different breast cancer cell lines BT474, T47D, MCF-7 and Adriamycin resistant MCF7 cells. Incubation time was 72h. Concentration of both agents in western blot: 1x10exp-7M, in MTT assay 10exp-11M to 10exp-5M. Results: MTT assay showed a significant stronger proliferation inhibition by lapatinib and fulvestrant in BT474 cells and non- overexpressing T47D cells at a concentration of 10E-7M compared to single agent treatment. By western blot analysis, we found a synergistic downregulation of PDK1 in the combination treatment both in BT474 and AR MCF7 cells, whereas not in T47D cells. In MCF7 cells a downregulation of p-PDK1 was observed after treatment with fulvestrant alone as well as lapatinib plus fulvestrant. Regarding ERK1/2, a synergistic downregulation could be observed in AR MCF7 cells. A downregulation of a p-ERK was detected in MCF-7 cells after treatment with lapatinib, fulvestrant or both. Conclusion: A synergistic action of lapatinib and fulvestrant was observed in all 4 cell lines despite their different receptor status regarding EGFR, HER2 and ER alpha. Shadeo et al. (2005) showed different copy number profiles in these breast cancer cell lines regarding the examined pathways. We could show by western blot analysis that the combination treatment had inhibitory effect on these cell lines according to their individual up-regulated pathways. Altogether, this suggests that the combination is a promising treatment not only in EGFR and HER2 over-expressing breast cancer and that treatment effect is also dependent on up-regulated pathways more likely than receptor status. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds have gained significant importance since they are abundantly available in the natural products and possess myriad biological activities. The new symmetrical 1,3-diketones bearing L-proline, 2-methyl-5-iodobenzoic acid, piperidine-3-carboxylic acid and naphthalene-1-acetic acid moieties were synthesized by coupling reaction of appropriate ketone with N-acyl triazole in the presence of MgBr2·Et2O and DIPEA. The chemical structure of the compounds were confirmed from the spectral data such as 1H, 13C NMR, FT-IR and HRMS. Molecular docking studies were carried out for all the compounds with tumor associated protein tyrosine kinase-6 (PTK6) and inflammatory protein cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2). The in vitro evaluation was carried out using breast cancer cell lines (MTT assay) and HRBC stabilization assays. During in silico studies, the ki values obtained against PTK6 and COX2 for (5a-d) compounds were in the range (-7.5 to -10.6) and (-7.6 to -9.8) kcal/mol, respectively. The compound 5d was selected for MTT assay, since it exhibited the highest binding affinity (-10.6 kcal/mol) against PTK6 and gave IC50 - 2.4 μg/mL against breast cancer cell lines. The HRBC stabilization of all the compounds (5a-5d) were in the range (59.28-93.4) %, with highest stabilization value by 5d, which also displayed higher binding affinity with -7.6 kcal/mol towards COX2. Thus, the synthesized symmetrical 1,3-diketones with suitable functionality can be both anticancer and anti-inflammatory agents.

Background: Selective therapy has always been the main challenge in cancer treatments. Various non-replicative oncolytic viral systems have revealed the safety and efficacy of using viruses and these products. The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of recombinant apoptin on the proliferation of lung cancer and breast cancer cell lines. Methods: The present study consisted of two steps of expression of recombinant apoptin and its anti-proliferative effects on normal and cancer cells. In the first step, following bioinformatics and optimizing apoptin gene sequencing and synthesis, it was expressed using vector PET28a and E. coli BL21 (DE3). The expressed recombinant apoptin was confirmed by analytical SDSPAGE and then purified using Ni affinity chromatography. In the second step, the antiproliferative effects of recombinant apoptin on lung cancer, breast cancer and primary cell lines were determined using MTT assay. Results: According to the results of SDS-PAGE gel assay, recombinant apoptin was visible in the 14 kDa band. Also, the MTT assay results indicated that the antiproliferative effects of recombinant apoptin in cancer cell lines was different compared with the primary cell line, and followed a dose-dependent manner in both cell lines. The highest cytotoxicity (lowest cell viability) groups were 0.2 mg/mL in lung cancer (0.32 ± 0.015) (P<0.001), and in breast cancer (0.33 ± 0.031) (P<0.001) and 0.032 mg/mL in primary cells (0.17 ± 0.004) (P<0.01), as compared to the control groups. Conclusion: Our results confirmed that recombinant apoptin can induce antiproliferative effects in lung cancer and breast cancer cell lines, but not in normal monkey kidney cell line Vero; thus, it can be introduced as a promising novel specific antitumor agent after further evaluation in clinical trials.

Background: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among Canadian women. Cancer management through changes in lifestyle, such as increased intake of foods rich in dietary flavonoids, have been shown to decrease the risk associated with breast, liver, colorectal, and upper-digestive cancers in epidemiologic studies. Onions are high in flavonoid content and one of the most common vegetables. Additionally, onions are used in most Canadian cuisines.Methods: We investigated the effect of five prominent Ontario grown onion (Stanley, Ruby Ring, LaSalle, Fortress, and Safrane) extracts on two subtypes of breast cancer cell lines: a triple negative breast cancer line MDA-MB-231 and an ER+ breast cancer line MCF-7.Results: These onion extracts elicited strong anti-proliferative, anti-migratory, and cytotoxic activities on both the cancer cell lines. Flavonoids present in these onion extracts induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase, and a reduction in mitochondrial membrane potential at dose-dependent concentrations. Onion extracts were more effective against MDA-MB-231 compared to the MCF-7 cell line. Conclusion: In this study, we investigated the extracts synthesized from Ontario-grown onion varieties in inducing anti-migratory, cytostatic, and cytotoxic activities in two sub-types of human breast cancer cell lines. Anti-tumor activity of these extracts depends upon the varietal and can be formulated into nutraceuticals and functional foods for the wellbeing of cancer patients. Overall, the results suggest that onion extracts are a good source of flavonoids with anti-cancerous properties.Keywords: onion extracts; flavonoids; anti-proliferative; breast cancer; cytotoxic activity

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
