악성 골종양 세포주들에 대한 Taxol의 세포독성

Cytotoxic Effect of Taxol on Malignant Bone Tumor Cell Lines

Taxol이 악성 골종양 세포에 어느 정도의 세포독성이 있는지를 평가하기 위해 한국세포주 은행에서 분양 받은 G-292, SaOS-2 및 HT-1080의 3가지 악성 골종양 세포들을 대상으로 기존의 항암제인 methotrexate, adriamycin, ifosfamide, cisplatinum과 함께 각각 투여하여 MTT분석법으로 정량 및 비교 분석하였으며, adriamycin과 taxol을 병용 투여하여 항암제의 상호작용을 isobologram 분석법으로 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Taxol의 악성 골종양 세포 주들에 대한 $IC_{50}$는 G-292에서는 $2.7{\times}10^{-2}{\mu}g/ml$, $SaOS^{-2}$에서는 $1.0{\times}10^{-2}{\mu}g/ml$, $HT{\times}1080$에서는 $1.1{\times}10^{-3}{\mu}g/ml$이었다. 2. Taxol은 악성 골종양 세포주들에 대해 기존의 항암제들 보다 강한 세포독성을 보였으며, 기존 항암제의 세포 독성의 강도는 adriamycin이 제일 높은 역가를 보였으며 그 외 methotrexate, cisplatinum, ifosfamide순이었다. 3. Taxol과 adriamycin을 병용 투여하여 상호작용을 관찰한 결과 G-292와 SaOS-2 세포 주에서 상승효과가 관찰되었으며, HT-1080에서는 상승효과가 관찰되지 않았다.

Taxol, the extract from the Taxus brevifolia which is a Pacific yew tree has aroused the interest of the tumor investigators since the 1960s. As well, it is shown to have broad antitumor activity in preclinical experimental models. Its action mechanism is an anti-microtubule effect by duplication of tubulin. The most impressive antitumor activity of taxol has been observed in advanced ovarian cancer and metastatic breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine how taxol acts on malignant bone tumor cell lines, to compare its cytotoxic effect with those of other chemotherapeutic agents, and to ascertain the its combination effect with adriamycin. Cell lines used in this study were G-292(osteosarcoma, human), SaOS-2(osteosarcoma, primary, human), and HT-1080(fibrosarcoma, human). Methotrexate, adriamycin, cisplatinum, ifosfamide and taxol were used as testing chemotherapeutic agents and their maximum test concentration were $500{\mu}g/ml$, $200{\mu}g/ml$, $500{\mu}g/ml$, $1000{\mu}g/ml$, and $600{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The media for cell culture was RPMI-1640 with 10% fetal bovine serum and gentamycin. The results were as follows. The $IC_{50}$ of methotrexate, ifosfamide, cisplatinum, adriamycin and Taxol in G-292 were $2.3{\times}10^{-1}{\mu}g/ml$, $8.0{\times}10^0{\mu}g/ml$, $3.5{\times}10^0{\mu}g/ml$, $9.8{\times}10^{-1}{\mu}g/ml$, $2.7{\times}10^{-2}{\mu}g/ml$ respectively, in SaOS-2 $3.5{\times}10^{-1}{\mu}g/ml$, $1.5{\times}10^1{\mu}g/ml$, $2.8{\times}10^0{\mu}g/ml$, $9.9{\times}10^{-2}{\mu}g/ml$, $1.0{\times}10^{-2}{\mu}g/ml$, respectively, in HT-1080 $4.2{\times}10^{-2}{\mu}g/ml$, $5.4{\times}10^1{\mu}g/ml$, $3.8{\times}10^0{\mu}g/ml$, $5.5{\times}10^{-3}{\mu}g/ml$, $1.1{\times}10^{-3}{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. In conclusion, taxol had very potent cytotoxic effect on the malignant bone tumor cell lines with adriamycin, and was more potent than methotrexate, cisplatinum and ifosfamide. There were synergistic antitumor effects on G-292 and SaOS-2 cell lines in combination test of taxol and adriamycin. From the above results, it would be estimated that taxol could be a new antitumor drug for the malignant bone tumors, providing measures against the side effects and followed by the clinical tests.
