Abstract Background Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease characterized by multiple histologic and molecular subtypes. While a myriad of breast cancer cell lines have been developed over the past 60 years, estrogen receptor alpha (ER)+ disease and some mutations associated with this subtype remain underrepresented. Here we describe six breast cancer cell lines derived from patient-derived xenografts (PDX) and their general characteristics. Methods Established breast cancer PDX were processed into cell suspensions and placed into standard 2D cell culture; six emerged into long-term passageable cell lines. Cell lines were assessed for protein expression of common luminal, basal, and mesenchymal markers, growth assessed in response to estrogens and endocrine therapies, and RNA-seq and oncogenomics testing performed to compare relative transcript levels and identify putative oncogenic drivers. Results Three cell lines express ER and two are also progesterone receptor (PR) positive; PAM50 subtyping identified one line as luminal A. One of the ER+PR+ lines harbors a D538G mutation in the gene for ER (ESR1), providing a natural model that contains this endocrine-resistant genotype. The third ER+PR−/low cell line has mucinous features, a rare histologic type of breast cancer. The three other lines are ER− and represent two basal-like and a mixed ductal/lobular breast cancer. The cell lines show varied responses to tamoxifen and fulvestrant, and three were demonstrated to regrow tumors in vivo. RNA sequencing confirms all cell lines are human and epithelial. Targeted oncogenomics testing confirmed the noted ESR1 mutation in addition to other mutations (i.e., PIK3CA, BRCA2, CCND1, NF1, TP53, MYC) and amplifications (i.e., FGFR1, FGFR3) frequently found in breast cancers. Conclusions These new generation breast cancer cell lines add to the existing repository of breast cancer models, increase the number of ER+ lines, and provide a resource that can be genetically modified for studying several important clinical breast cancer features.

Abstract Background and objectives: Breast cancer presents high morbidity among women with various treatment challenges. This study aims to evaluate the repurposed lamotrigine schiff base metal (LTG-SB-M) coordinates against in-vitro MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines and in-vivo N-methylnitrosourea (NMU)-persuaded toxicity of rats’ mammary gland. Method: In-silico computational analysis and in vitro cytotoxic studies on MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines was executed to build up the assumptions. In-vivo NMU-induced anticancer potential was assessed in forty Wistar rats; assigned into five groups of 8 rats each. Group I served as normal control and received normal saline, Group II received NMU (50 mg/kg), Group III received tamoxifen, whereas; Group IV and V received LTG-SB-M derivative (LAC3, LBC3) at dose of 100 mg/kg body weight, for 15 consecutive days. Intraperitoneal injection of NMU (single dose) was given at the age of 5, 9 and 13 weeks to the rats with the three week interval. For all experimental animals; biochemical markers were assessed. DNA strand breakage alongside the hormonal profile of estrogen and progesterone was also estimated. Results: All tested compounds present significant activity against MCF-7 cell lines in vitro and NMU-induced mammary tumor in vivo. The in vivo results of tested compounds present a significant decrease in weight of organ; with reinstated renal and hepatic enzymes. Histological analysis revealed strong countenance of proteins, estrogen, and progesterone in NMU-treated rats. Conclusion: These results suggest that LTG-SB-M complex can be used as better anticancer agent against breast cancer.

Jujuboside B (JB) is one of the main biologically active ingredients extracted from Zizyphi Spinosi Semen (ZSS), a widely used traditional Chinese medicine for treating insomnia and anxiety. Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. The purpose of this study was to examine whether JB could prevent breast cancer and its underlying mechanism. First, we reported that JB induced apoptosis and autophagy in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 human breast cancer cell lines. Further mechanistic studies have revealed that JB-induced apoptosis was mediated by NOXA in both two cell lines. Moreover, the AMPK signaling pathway plays an important role in JB-induced autophagy in MCF-7. To confirm the anti-breast cancer effect of JB, the interaction of JB-induced apoptosis and autophagy was investigated by both pharmacological and genetic approaches. Results indicated that autophagy played a pro-survival role in attenuating apoptosis. Further in vivo study showed that JB significantly suppressed the growth of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 xenografts. In conclusion, our findings indicate that JB exerts its anti-breast cancer effect in association with the induction of apoptosis and autophagy.

Nanostructured Lipid Carrier

Abstract Background Eucalyptol is an active compound of eucalyptus essential oil and was reported to have many medical attributes including cytotoxic effect on breast cancer cells. However, it has low solubility in aqueous solutions which limits its bioavailability and cytotoxic efficiency. In this study, nanostructured lipid carrier loaded with eucalyptol (NLC-Eu) was formulated and characterized and the cytotoxic effect of NLC-Eu towards breast cancer cell lines was determined. In addition, its toxicity in animal model, BALB/c mice was also incorporated into this study to validate the safety of NLC-Eu. Methods Eucalyptol, a monoterpene oxide active, was used to formulate the NLC-Eu by using high pressure homogenization technique. The physicochemical characterization of NLC-Eu was performed to assess its morphology, particle size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential. The in vitro cytotoxic effects of this encapsulated eucalyptol on human (MDA MB-231) and murine (4 T1) breast cancer cell lines were determined using the MTT assay. Additionally, acridine orange/propidium iodide assay was conducted on the NLC-Eu treated MDA MB-231 cells. The in vivo sub-chronic toxicity of the prepared NLC-Eu was investigated using an in vivo BALB/c mice model. Results As a result, the light, translucent, milky-colored NLC-Eu showed particle size of 71.800 ± 2.144 nm, poly-dispersity index of 0.258 ± 0.003, and zeta potential of − 2.927 ± 0.163 mV. Furthermore, the TEM results of NLC-Eu displayed irregular round to spherical morphology with narrow size distribution and relatively uniformed particles. The drug loading capacity and entrapment efficiency of NLC-Eu were 4.99 and 90.93%, respectively. Furthermore, NLC-Eu exhibited cytotoxic effects on both, human and mice, breast cancer cells with IC50 values of 10.00 ± 4.81 μg/mL and 17.70 ± 0.57 μg/mL, respectively at 72 h. NLC-Eu also induced apoptosis on the MDA MB-231 cells. In the sub-chronic toxicity study, all of the studied mice did not show any signs of toxicity, abnormality or mortality. Besides that, no significant changes were observed in the body weight, internal organ index, hepatic and renal histopathology, serum biochemistry, nitric oxide and malondialdehyde contents. Conclusions This study suggests that the well-characterized NLC-Eu offers a safe and promising carrier system which has cytotoxic effect on breast cancer cell lines.
