Opis:
Sonodynamic therapy is the ultrasound dependent enhancement of the cytotoxic activities of certain drugs called sonosensitizers. The study of therapeutic efficacy of ultrasound is always preceded by in-vitro tests. In this work, two in-vitro sonication procedures were compared. One with the transducer positioned bellow the cell colony, radiating upward, with standing wave reflected from the water-air surface, the second, in the free field conditions. Efficiency of the cancer cells necrosis caused by ultrasound was compared with acoustical field intensity ISPTA measured by a hydrophone. The standing wave conditions effectively increased the intensity of the ultrasonic wave at the level of cells. To achieve 50% of cell viability, the intensity ISATA, decreased from 5.8 W/cm2 to 0.3 W/cm2. In summary, sonication in the standing wave conditions can effectively and reproducibly destroy cells by ensuring the sterility and without the risk of overheating.

Opis:
Prostate cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in men throughout the world. It is believed that changes to the structure of protein binding sites, altering its metabolism, may play an important role in carcinogenesis. Sulphur, often present in binding sites, can influence such changes through its chemical speciation. Hence there is a need for precise investigation of coordination environment of sulphur. X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy offers such possibility. Cell culture samples offer histologically well defined areas of good homogeneity, suitable for successful and reliable X-ray absorption near edge structure analysis. This paper presents sulphur speciation data collected from three different human prostate cancer cell lines (PC-3, LNCaP and DU-145). Sulphur X-ray absorption near edge structure analysis was performed on K-edge structure. The spectra of cells were compared with those of cancerous tissue and with organic substances as well as inorganic compounds.

Istnieją trzy udokumentowane przypadki zakaźnych nowotworów występujących w środowisku naturalnym: rak pyska diabła tasmańskiego, zakaźny psi guz weneryczny oraz białaczko-podobny nowotwór u małgwi piaskołazu. Komórki zakaźnego nowotworu charakteryzują się podobnym lub takim samym materiałem genetycznym, który jest odmienny od genomu gospodarza. Każdy z opisanych rodzajów nowotworów pochodzi od pierwotnego, wspólnego przodka i szerzy się horyzontalnie miedzy osobnikami. Nowotwór rozprzestrzenia się przez bezpośredni kontakt fizyczny (u psów i diabłów tasmańskich) lub poprzez czynniki środowiskowe, jak np. woda (małże). Mechanizmy, które doprowadziły do wyewoluowania zakaźnej postaci nowotworu i pozwalają nowotworowi unikać odpowiedzi odpornościowej gospodarza, nie są do końca poznane. W tym kontekście, pewne znaczenie może odgrywać poziom zróżnicowania genetycznego populacji zwierząt oraz brak/zaburzenia rozpoznawania swój-obcy. Bardziej dogłębne poznanie biologii tego typu nowotworów, ich dróg rozprzestrzeniania się, tworzenia przerzutów, sposobów unikania mechanizmów odpornościowych gospodarza, może udzielić wielu odpowiedzi na temat biologii innych nowotworów.
There are three documented cases of contagious cancers occurring in natural environment - devil facial tumor disease, canine transmissible venereal tumor and leukemia-like clam cancer. The tumor cells collected from different locations have identical chromosomal rearrangements and they are genetically distinct from their hosts. All the types of transmissible cancers come from an original, common ancestor and they spread through horizontal transmission between individuals. The neoplastic cells are transported through physical contact (dogs and Tasmanian devils) or by environmental factors, e.g. water (soft-shell clams). The mechanisms that led to appearance of the transmissible cancers and that allow the cancer to avoid the host immune response are not yet fully known. In this context, the genetic diversity of animal populations and the lack or disorder of the self/nonself-immune recognition may play a role. In-depth knowledge of biology of this type of cancer: how they can spread, cause metastasis, and avoid immune response, may help to elucidate biology of other cancers.

In this study the influence of high-voltage pulses on bleomycin cytotoxicity towards mouse hepatoma MH-22A and rat glioma C6 cells in vitro was determined. It was obtained that combining bleomycin with pulses of strong electric field significantly enhances the number of cells killed by bleomycin. Bleomycin alone was cytotoxic to both cell lines at concentrations above 1 μM. Treatment of cells by electric pulses in the presence of bleomycin greatly potentiated its cytotoxicity towards both cell lines tested - the bleomycin concentration required to reduce cell survival by 50% was 3.5-3.8 nM only. Exposure of cells to electric pulses only did not reduce cell viability.

Opis:
Prostate cancer cell lines along with selected organic and inorganic compounds used as references were studied with sulphur K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy. The experiment was performed at the SUL-X beamline of the synchrotron radiation source ANKA, Karlsruhe (Germany). The sulphur was chosen for the studies because it is an essential biological element and out of many relevant factors, it is believed that it can take an important part in cancer transformations. The main goal was to determine which sulphur forms occur in prostate cancer cells and to compare these results with the ones obtained for non-cancerous cells. Therefore oxidation state of this element was analysed with S K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy. The analysis of K-edge structure was done in order to investigate also the chemical structure of the elements neighbouring the central atom. The preliminary results from sulphur X-ray absorption near edge structure in prostate cancer cell line PC-3 and prostatic epithelial cell line PZ-HPV-7 (which was used as a control) show that there are various oxidation states of sulphur occurring in cells. The set of reference compounds with various sulphur oxidation states was used to establish the relation between the energy of the white line maximum and the oxidation state of sulphur. The equation of linear fit was used to compute the unknown oxidation state. In order to obtain a more detailed information the method of deconvolution of X-ray absorption near edge structure spectra was used. Experimental spectra were fitted with two Gaussian peaks and one arctangent step function. Fitting procedure was performed in Athena code and the deconvolution was used to assign the fraction of each sulphur form. The next step was to compare the results calculated for cancerous and non-cancerous cells. In this work, the first results of these studies are presented.

The aim of the study was to assess the influence of colon neoplasia tissue lysate on functioning of generated autologous DC’s in the field of autologous CD4+ lymphocytes immunological response towards Th1/Th2 under in vitro environment together with comparison and assessment of DCs’ immunosuppressive properties acquired from patients with colon cancer. Material and methods. The population of this study consisted of 16 healthy- controls, 36colon cancer patients. Blood samples were collected 24h before planned surgery and preventive antibiotic therapy. Neoplastic tissue sample, was digested for cell lysates preparation. DC’s generation from PBMC was carried out in standard conditionsand medium enriched with rhGM-CSF and rhIL-4. Mature DC`s and cocultured autologous CD4 lymphocytes immunophenotype assessment was analyzed with flow cytometer. Intracellular and culture medium cytokines concentration was analyzed with ELISA and FACS method. Results. DC`s generated from colon cancer patients stimulated with lysates presented greater maturity, lower expression of CD206 antigen, significantly higher expression of HLA-DR, CD208 and CD209 and high intracellular expression of IL-12, compared to non-stimulated cells. Conclusions. The neoplastic tissue in vivo produces a number of substances having an unfavorable effect on immune system, our results suggests using lysates as good dendritic cells stimulators that possibly could have application in colon cancer immunotherapy

Opis:
Breast cancer is the most common malignant cancer among women. Both drug resistance and metastasis are major problems in the treatment of breast cancer. Therefore, adjuvant therapy may improve patients’ survival and affect their quality of life. It is suggested that epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) which is well known for its chemopreventive activity and acts on numerous molecular targets may inhibit the growth and metastasis of some cancers. Hence, discovering the metastatic molecular mechanisms for breast cancer may be useful for therapy.The aim of the study was to determine the effect of EGGC on the mRNA expression level of genes such as ZEB1, ABCB1, MDM2, TWIST1 and PTEN in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. MCF7/DOX were cultured in the presence of 0.2 μM DOX and EGCG (20-50 μM). The mRNA expression level was determined by real-time quantitative PCR using RealTime ready Custom Panel 96 kit. Our results showed an important increase (about 2-fold for 20 μM EGCG + 0.2 μM DOX and 2.5-fold for 50 μM EGCG + 0.2 μM DOX, p<0.05) in ZEB1 expression levels. In case of ABCB1 gene lack of influence on the mRNA level was observed (p>0.05). We also observed significant decrease of ZEB1 expression in MCF7 cells with 20 μM and 50 μM EGCG (p<0.05). In addition, EGCG (20 μM) caused an increase of MDM2 and PTEN mRNA levels in almost 100% (p<0.05) and 40% (p>0.05), respectively. Lack of the influence of EGCG was noted for the TWIST1 gene expression. In case of MCF7/DOX we showed an increase of mRNA level of PTEN gene about 50% (p<0.05). These results suggest that EGCG may be potentially used in adjuvant therapy in the breast cancer treatment.

Opis:
Until recently, green tea polyphenols were considered strong antioxidants. However, the latest reports have revealed that bioflavonoids can play a multiple role in anticancer therapy, including the inhibition of cell proliferation and generation of the oxidative stress in a dose-dependent manner. The presented research was designed to examine the potential of the green tea (±)-catechin as a reinforcement of the electrochemotherapy (ECT) with cisplatin in pancreatic cancer in vitro. The study was performed on two cell lines of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) - parental EPP85-181P and multidrug-resistant EPP85-181RNOV. Prior to the ECT protocol the cells were preincubated with high or low concentration of catechin for 2 or 24 hours, respectively. We assessed the influence of preincubation on the cisplatin toxicity with and without electroporation (EP), the electrosensitivity of PDA cell lines and the uptake of the daunorubicin and propidium iodide. Additionally, we evaluated the antioxidative properties of catechin by the measurement of the ROS-related fluorescence and the immunoreactivity of the oxidative stress-related enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD2) and glutathione S-transferase (GST). We found that co-treatment with catechin can firmly enhance the efficacy of electroporation with cisplatin in vitro. More favorable effect was obtained for 2-hour incubation, which indicates the involvement of the transcriptional-independent mechanisms of catechin action. The effect may be partially explained by the increased oxidative stress level, which was higher in multidrug-resistant cells. However, further studies on cisplatin-catechin interplay and the thorough examination of the catechin-cell membrane interaction need to be performed.

Opis:
Invasion and migration of cancer cells are crucial for the formation of secondary lesions. These require activation of signalling cascades modulated by the number of regulatory molecules. One such molecule is CD151, a member of evolutionary conserved tetraspanin family. CD151 is involved in cell adhesion, motility and cancer progression due to formation of complexes with laminin-binding integrins and regulation of growth factor receptors function (e.g. HGFR, TGFβR, EGFR). Recent studies point to correlation between CD151 expression and high tumour grade in prostate cancer (PCa). Herein, we investigated a possible role of CD151 in communication between PC3 cancer cells and either cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) or osteoblasts, an interplay which is significant for metastasis. The analysis showed that although CAFs strongly enhanced both migration and invasion of PC3 prostate cancer cells, the effect was not dependent on CD151. On the other hand, CD151 was found to promote 3D migration as well as invasive growth in response to osteoblasts-secreted growth factors. Obtained data revealed that knockdown of CD151 abolished activation of pro-migratory/pro-survival kinases (i.e FAK, Src, HSP27) triggered by osteoblasts, along with expression of matrix metalloproteinase-13. This suggests that CD151 participates in communication between PC3 cells and bone microenvironment and the process can be considered as a significant step of PCa progression and metastasis.

Introduction: EpCAM protein belongs to adhesion molecules of epithelial cells. It mediates in the homophile adhesion cell-cell reactions. EpCAM protein expression can be observed in the majority of healthy normal cells. However, mutations in EpCAM gene may lead to an increased risk of cancer development. The aim of the study was to assess EpCAM protein expression in the correlation with chosen clinical and histological parameters in gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: EpCAM protein expression was evaluated immunohistochemically in 88 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer. Results: An increase in EpCAM protein expression was demonstrated in cancer cells compared to normal gastric mucosa (59.3% cancers with the positive expression of EpCAM protein). The increased EpCAM protein expression was observed in patients with a histological type of adenocarcinoma without a mucinous component than in those with adenocarcinoma with a mucinous component (p=0.028). The higher expression of this protein was observed also in the intestinal type according to the Lauren classification (p=0.037). The expression of the protein was lower in the diffuse type of cancer. Additionally, an increase in EpCAM protein expression was revealed in cancers infiltrating to the blood vessels (p=0.013). Conclusions: A correlation between EpCAM expression and adenocarcinoma without a mucinous component as well as the intestinal type according to the Lauren classification may prove a role of this protein in the histogenesis of gastric cancer. Moreover, its positive expression is related to cancerous cells infiltrating to the blood vessels, which may suggest a role of EpCAM protein in the early stages of gastric cancer metastases.

Opis:
Metronidazole belongs to the most commonly prescribed medications for bacterial and parasitic infections worldwide. It is also used in perioperative prevention prior to bowel, and head and neck surgeries. Despite the fact that the World Health Organization has placed it on its List of Essential Medicines, it is considered potentially carcinogenic. A great number of research studies have been conducted to clarify this issue, but results are inconclusive. None of the studies focused on the influence of metronidazole on oral cancer development. The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of metronidazole on the viability of tongue cancer cells. The research was conducted on the tongue squamous cell carcinoma cell line (CAL-27). Metronidazole dissolved in growth medium was applied to the cell culture at concentrations: 1, 10, 50, 100μg/mL. Toxicity of the drug was evaluated by MTT assay and the [3H]-thymidine incorporation test. The MTT test revealed a significant increase in cell viability under the influence of metronidazole after 24h, at the highest concentration of the drug (100μg/mL), but had no impact on cell viability at other concentrations and after 48h and 72h. The results of the [3H]-thymidine incorporation test did not show significant results. Summarizing, metronidazole stimulates the viability of tongue squamous cell carcinoma cells according to its concentration and the time of incubation (results significant at the concentration 100μg/mL, after 24 hours of incubation).

Opis:
Triterpene saponins (saponosides) are found in a variety of higher plants and display a wide range of pharmacological activities, including expectorant, anti-inflamatory, vasoprotective, gastroprotective and antimicrobial properties. Recently, a potential anticancer activity of saponins has been suggested by their cytotoxic, cytostatic, pro-apoptotic and anti-invasive effects. At high concentrations (more than 100 µM) saponins exert cytotoxic and haemolytic effects via permeabilization of the cell membranes. Noteworthy, the inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, the induction of apoptosis and attenuation of cell invasiveness is observed in the presence of low saponin concentrations. Saponins might affect the expression of genes associated with malignancy. These alterations are directly related to the invasive phenotype of cancer cells and depend on "cellular context". It illustrates the relationships between the action of saponins, and the momentary genomic/proteomic status of cancer cells. Here, we discuss the hallmarks of anti-cancer activity of saponins with the particular emphasis on anti-invasive effect of diverse groups of saponins that have been investigated in relation to tumor therapy.

Opis:
Adjuvant chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil remains the basic treatment for patients with advanced colorectal carcinoma. The major obstacle in successful treatment is the ability of CRC cells to acquire chemoresistance. Here we examined the impact of ID1 silencing on the sensitivity of CRC cells to 5-FU. To suppress ID1 expression in HT-29 and HCT-116 cells the cells were transduced with a lentiviral vector carrying the ID1 silencing sequence. Cells with silenced ID1 showed altered expression of epithelial and mesenchymal markers and exhibited increased proliferation rate compared to the parental cells. HCT-116 cells with suppressed ID1 became sensitized to 5-FU and this was not observed in HT-29 cells. Silencing ID1 resulted in altered expression of genes encoding enzymes metabolizing 5-FU. HT-29 cells with suppressed ID1 had significantly reduced mRNA level for thymidine phosphorylase, uridine-cytydine kinase 2 and dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase. ID1 suppression in HCT-116 cells resulted in an increase of mRNA level for thymidine phosphorylase, thymidine kinase and uridine-cytydine kinase 2 with concurrent drop of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase and thymidylate synthetase mRNA levels. In conclusion, ID1 expression impacts the sensitivity of colon cancer cells to 5-FU and may be considered as a potential predictive marker in CRC treatment.
