MCF 7 Hücre Hattında 4- Aminopiridin ve Paklitakselin Sinerjistik Etkileri
Amaç: Çalışmamızda, meme kanseri tedavisinde yaygın olarak kullanılan Paklitaksel’in (PTX) etkinliğinin 4-aminopiridin (4-AP) kullanılarak arttırılması hedeflenmiştir. Yöntemler: Çalışmamızda, L929 (ATCC CRL-6364) ve MCF7 (ATCC- HTB 22) hücre hatları kullanıldı. IC50 ve canlılık tripan mavisi metoduyla, hücre döngüsü analizleri Cdk2 ve Histon (H3) seviyeleri ile ve membran potansiyeli ölçümleri Dibac4(3) [Bis-(1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid)trimethine oxonol] kullanılarak floresan mikroplaka okuyucuda belirlendi.Bulgular: Yapılan deneylerde, her iki ajan için IC50 değerleri belirlendi ve bu değerler kombine edildi. Kombinasyonlarda iki farklı PTX konsantrasyonu kullanıldı. Kombinasyon sonucunda, L929 hücrelerinde 4-AP (4 mM) ve PTX (5 nM), 4-AP (4 mM) ve PTX (7.5 nM) kombinasyonunun canlılığı sırasıyla % 17 ± 8.08, % 45 ± 3.18, MCF 7 hücrelerinde ise sırasıyla %60 ± 3.7, %74 ± 2.6 azalttığı belirlenmiştir. Membran potansiyeli (Vm) ölçümlerinde, L929 hücreleri için 4-AP ve 5 nM- 7.5 nM PTX değerlerinde depolarizasyon, kombinasyonlar için hiperpolarizasyon gözlemlenirken, MCF7 hücrelerinde 4-AP,7.5nM PTX ve 4-AP (4 mM) + PTX (5 nM) için depolarizasyon, 5 nM PTX ve 4-AP (4 mM) + PTX (7.5 nM) için hyperpolarizasyon gözlemlenmiştir. Cdk2 ve H3 seviyeleri ölçümlerinde, MCF 7 hücreleri için ağırlıklı olarak G1 fazında, L929 hücreleri ağırlıklı olarak G2/ M fazında duraklama görülmüştür. Sonuç: MCF-7 meme kanseri hücrelerinde 4-AP ve PTX in beraber kullanılmasıyla canlılıkta azalma beklendiği şekilde artarken, sağlıklı hücre hattı olarak kullanılan L929 hücrelerinde antagonist etki görülmüştür. Bu veriler, 4- AP ile PTX kombinasyonunun kanser hücrelerini seçici olarak etkilediğini ve dolayısıyla umut vadeden bir yaklaşım olduğunu göstermektedir.
Synergistic Effects of 4-Aminopyridine and Paclitaxel on MCF 7 Cell Line
Objectives: Aim of this study is to increase the effectiveness of paclitaxel (PTX) with the use of 4 – aminopyridine (4-AP) on breast cancer cell line MCF-7.Methods: In this study, L-929 (ATCC CRL-6364) and MCF-7 (ATCC – HTB 22) cell lines were used. IC50 and survival values were determined by trypan blue exclusion; cell cycle analysis was determined by measuring levels of Cdk2 and Histone (H3) and plasma membrane potential (Vm) measurements were performed using fluorescent Bis-(1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid) trimethine oxonol (DiBaC4(3)).Results: IC50 values were determined for two agents and these values were combined. Combination treatments ie. “4-AP (4 mM) + PTX (5 nM)” and “4-AP (4 mM) + PTX (7.5 nM)” decreased viability 17% ± 8.08 and 45% ± 3.18, respectively for L-929 cells and decreased viability 60%± 3.7 and 74%± 2.6, respectively for MCF-7 cells. For L-929 cells, plasma membrane potential measurements resulted in depolarization for 4-AP, PTX (5 nM) and PTX (7.5 nM), and resulted in hyperpolarization for the combinations. For MCF-7 cells, plasma membrane potential measurements resulted in depolarization for 4-AP, PTX (7.5 nM) and 4-AP + PTX (5 nM), and resulted in hyperpolarization for PTX (5 nM) and 4-AP + PTX (7.5 nM). Changes of Cdk2 and H3 levels showed mostly G1 arrest for MCF 7 cells and G2/M arrest for L-929 cells.Conclusions: Combination treatments increased the cell death for MCF-7 cells. But, combination treatments didn’t show synergistic effect on L-929 which is accepted as a non-cancerous cell. These data showed that use of 4-AP in combination with the anticancer agent paclitaxel is a promising approach for cancer treatment.
