잡곡 류에 속하는 기장(Panicum miliaceum L.)의 항암 효과를 알아보기 위해, 기장의 종자를 80% 에탄올(EtOH)로 추출하였으며, 이를 감압 농축하여 건조시키고 재차 물에 녹인 후 4가지 유기용매(헥산, 메틸렌크로라이드, 에틸아세테이트 및 부탄올)로 순차적으로 추출 분획하였다. 다양한 인간 암세포에 대하여 80% 에탄올 추출물의 세포독성을 조사한 결과, 인간 유방암 세포주 MDA-MB-231에 대한 세포독성 효과가 가장 강하게 나타났다. 또한 에탄올 추출물 유래 각 유기용매 분획들 중에서 세포독성이 가장 높게 나타난 부탄올 분획을 사용하여, 유방암 세포주 MDA-MB-231에 대한 아폽토시스성 세포사멸 유도 효과를 조사하였다. 그 결과로서, BAK/BAX 활성화, 미토콘드리아 막 전위(Δψm) 손실, 미토콘드리아 시토크롬 c 방출, 카스파아제-8/-9/-3의 활성화, PARP의 분해, 그리고 TUNEL-양성 아폽토시스성 DNA 단편화와 같은 아폽토시스 반응들이 검출되었다. 한편, 인간 급성백혈병 Jurkat T 세포의 A3 클론(야생형), I2.1 클론(FADD-결손형) 및 I9.2 클론(카스파아제-8 결손형)은 부탄올 분획의 세포독성에 대해 유사한 감수성을 나타내었는데, 이는 부탄올 분획의 아폽토시스 유도 활성에는 외인성 아폽토시스 기전이 관련되지 않음을 시사한다. 흥미롭게도, 인간 정상 유방 상피세포 MCF-10A는 유방암 MDA-MB-231세포에 비해 부탄올 분획의 세포독성에 대하여 훨씬 낮은 감수성를 보였다. 이러한 연구결과는 기장 종자 유래 부탄올 분획의 인간 유방암 세포주 MDA-MB-231에 미치는 세포독성효과는 BAK/BAX 활성화에 따른 미토콘드리아 외막 손상 및 시토크롬 c 방출, 이에 수반되는 카스파아제 활성화에 의해 매개됨을 보여준다.

We present a method of surface functionalization of a single layer graphene for linking and detecting MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell. The methodology is done by utilizing 1-pyrenebutanoic acid and succinimidyl ester for immobiling CD44 antibodies. This work shows that the single layer graphene is an efficient fixing substance to capture the MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell, selectively. The immobilization method of the cancer cell on the graphene layer will be an effective cell counting system. Moreover usage of the linking with non-covalent bonding is expected to develope a sensor scheme of electrical cell-detecting diagnosis system.

Harmine, a beta-carboline alkaloid isolated from the seeds of Peganum harmala has been reported as a promising drug candidate for cancer therapy. However, the effect of harmine on breast cancer remains still unclear. In this study, the effect of harmine on the cell proliferation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer MDA-MB231 cells and the underlying mechanism were investigated. The results indicated that harmine inhibited the proliferation MDA-MB231 cells in a dose-dependent manner and markedly suppressed migration and invasion of MDA-MB231 cells. The mechanism involved in part through Notch signaling. The Notch activity was significantly inhibited by harmine treatment and harmine suppressed the expression of Jagged1 which is a key ligand to activate Notch signaling. These findings suggest a novel mechanism of harmine on anti-cancer activity and harmine may act as a potential therapeutic drug for breast cancer treatment.

Ten compounds, consisting of neoflavonoids (1-5), isoflavonoids (6 and 7), flavanone (8), and chalcones (9 and 10) were isolated from the ethyl acetate and n-butanol-soluble fractions of the heartwood of Dalbergia melanoxylon. The chemical structures were identified on the basis of spectroscopic evidence and compared to previously reported spectra. Compounds 1-10 were evaluated for cytotoxicity against HCT116 human colorectal cancer, MDA-MB-231 human metastatic breast cancer, and A2058 human melanoma cell lines. Among them, compounds 3 and 10 showed the strongest cytotoxic activity with IC₅₀ values of 11.92±1.07 μM, 10.83±1.02 μM, and 14.37±1.02 μM, 13.62±1.09 μM against HCT116 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines, respectively. Compounds 9 and 10 also had cytotoxic activity with IC₅₀ values of 13.49±1.18 μM and 9.82±0.91 μM against A2058 cell lines, respectively. To the best our knowledge, compounds 2 and 5-10 were isolated from this source for the first time.

Background: The consequence of Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor alpha (RhoGDI${\alpha}$) activity on migration and invasion of estrogen receptor positive ($ER^+$) and negative ($ER^-$) breast cancer cells has not been studied using the proteomic approach. Changes in expression of RhoGDI${\alpha}$ and other proteins interacting directly or indirectly with RhoGDI${\alpha}$ in MCF7 and MDA-MB-231, with different metastatic potentials is of particular interest. Materials and Methods: $ER^+$ MCF7 and ER- MDA-MB-231 cell lines were subjected to two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and spots of interest were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of- flight/time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF/TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) analysis after downregulation of RhoGDI${\alpha}$ using short interfering RNA (siRNA) and upregulated using GFP-tagged ORF clone of RhoGDI${\alpha}$. Results: The results showed a total of 35 proteins that were either up- or down-regulated in these cells. Here we identifed 9 and 15 proteins differentially expressed with silencing of RhoGDI${\alpha}$ in MCF-7 and the MDA-MB-231 cells, respectively. In addition, 10 proteins were differentially expressed in the upregulation of RhoGDI${\alpha}$ in MCF7, while only one protein was identified in the upregulation of RhoGDI${\alpha}$ in MDA-MB-231. Based on the biological functions of these proteins, the results revealed that proteins involved in cell migration are more strongly altered with RhoGDI-${\alpha}$ activity. Although several of these proteins have been previously indicated in tumorigenesis and invasiveness of breast cancer cells, some ohave not been previously reported to be involved in breast cancer migration. Hence, these proteins may serve as useful candidate biomarkers for tumorigenesis and invasiveness of breast cancer cells. Conclusions: Future studies are needed to determine the mechanisms by which these proteins regulate cell migration. The combination of RhoGDI${\alpha}$ with other potential biomarkers may be a more promising approach in the inhibition of breast cancer cell migration.

본 연구는 MDA-MB-231 세포에서 resveratrol의 apoptosis 유발 효과에 대해 알아보기 위해 연구되었다. Cell viability 결과 농도 유의적으로 감소하였으며, DAPI stain에서는 농도 의존적으로 chromatin condensation이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. Resveratrol은 p53, cleaved-caspase-3, cleaved-caspase-9의 발현을 증가시켰지만, PI3K/Akt의 발현은 시간 의존적으로 감소시켰다. In vivo 실험에서는 resveratrol의 종양 억제 효과를 확인하였다. 50 mg/kg 투여한 군에서 종양의 크기가 대조군에 비해 감소하였으며, TUNEL assay를 통해 apoptosis cell을 관찰한 결과 50 mg/kg 투여한 군에서 많이 관찰되었다. 면역조직화학 염색을 통해 50 mg/kg 투여한 군에서 p53, cytochrome-C, cleaved-caspase-3의 발현이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 종합하여 봤을 때 resveratrol이 MDA-MB-231 세포에 apoptosis를 유발하는데 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

대두(백태,흑태)와 현미의 메탄올과 아세톤 추출물이 호르몬 의존형 유방암세포(MCF-7)와 호르몬 비의존형세포(MDA-MB-231)의 세포독성과 apoptosis에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다 각 추출물별 25, 50, 100 ug/well의 농도로 24, 48, 72시간 배양 시 배양시간과 사용된 시료 모두 농도 의존적으로 유방암 세포생존율을 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 호르몬 의존형 세포인 MCF-7 에서는 현미의 아세톤 추출물이 낮은 농도에서 짧은 배양시간에도 그 효과가 나타났고 호르몬 비의존형 세포주 MDA-MB-231에서는 현미의 아세톤 및 메탄올 추출물의 효과가 다른 시료들에 비해 높게 나타났다. Apoptosis에 미치는 영향에서는 호르몬 비의존형 세포(MDA-MB-231)에서 메탄올추출물 처리군이 대조군에 비해 apoptosis된 세포가 유의적으로 증가한 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러나 세포생존율 결과와는 다르게 호르몬의존형 세포와 호르몬비의존형 세포 모두에서 아세톤 처리군은 대조군에 비해 apptosis에 유의차를 나타내지 않았다. 이상의 결과에 의하면 이들 화합물이 소유한 암세포 성장억제 기전은 추출물내 함유된 화합물의 종류와 세포성장의 호르몬 의존도에 따라 다양한 것으로 사료된다.

Background: Breast cancer is a complex, heterogeneous disease and one of the most common malignancies in women worldwide. The efficacy of chemotherapy as an important breast cancer treatment option has been severely limited because of the inherent or acquired resistance of cancer cells. The molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) upregulated in response to cellular stress is required for functions such as conformational maturation, activation and stability in more than 200 client proteins, mostly of the signaling type. In this study, the expression of HSP90 isoforms including $HSP90{\alpha}$ and $HSP90{\beta}$ in breast cancer cell lines before and after treatment with doxorubicin (DOX) was assessed. Material and Methods: The cell cytotoxicity of DOX in MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cell lines was determined using the MTT assay. immunofluorescence and western blotting techniques were used to determine the expression of $HSP90{\beta}$ in the cell lines before and after DOX treatment. Immunofluorescence was also conducted to ascertain the expression of $HSP90{\alpha}$. Results: The MTT assay results showed that the MDA-MB-231 cells ($IC_{50}=14.521{\mu}M$) were more sensitive than the MCF-7 cells ($IC_{50}=16.3315{\mu}M$) to DOX. The immunofluorescence results indicated that the expression of $HSP90{\alpha}$ in both cell lines decreased after exposure to DOX. The western blot and immunofluorescence analyses showed that $HSP90{\beta}$ expression decreased in the MCF-7 cells but increased in the MDA-MB-231 cells after DOX treatment. Conclusion: The obtained results suggested that $HSP90{\alpha}$ and $HSP90{\beta}$ expression levels were reduced in the MCF-7 cells after exposure to DOX. In the MDA-MB-231 cells, $HSP90{\alpha}$ expression was reduced while $HSP90{\beta}$ was found to be overexpressed following DOX treatment.
