Doxorubicin, one of the clinically most useful anticancer agents, is used alone or in combination with other drugs against a wide variety of tumors, recently. But cancer cells developed resistance to this agent in many ways. This resistance is an important limiting factor of doxorubicin for anticancer drug. We newly established doxorubicin-resistant HCT15/CL02 subline from parental HCT15 human adenocarcinoma colon cancer cells. HCT15/CL02 revealed resistance to doxorubicin about 85-fold of its parental cells, and it also revealed cross-resistance to actinomycin D, etoposide and vinblastine but not to displatin and tamoxifen. And verapamil, a reversal agent of multidrug-resistance (MDR) by P-glycoprotein, elevated the cytotoxicity of doxorubicin against both HCT15 and GCT15/CL02 cells. But the relative resistant rate was not reduced. Verapamil had no effects on the tosicity of cisplatin to the both cell lines. These results indicate that HCT15/CL02 cells have some functionally complex mechanisms for MDR.

Daunirubicin and doxorubicin analogues (5,7,8,9,) in which the natural amino sugar, daunosamine, is replaced by rhamnopyranosyl or 4'-amino rhamnopyranosyl residues have been p repared. The in vitro cytotoxicity of compound 5 or 7 was similar to that of doxorubicin for P388 murine leukemic cell line. But compound 8 or 9 was less cytotoxic than doxorubicin. When administered intravenously on day 1, compound 9 showed antitumor activity comparable to that of doxorubicin against ip-inoculated L1210 murine leukemia and found to be less toxic than doxorubicin. But the in vivo antitumor activity of compound 7 or 8 was inferior to that of doxorubicin.

The novel 1-(1-benzoylindoline-5-sulfonyl)-4-phenyl-4,5-dihydroimidazolones 2 shows highly potent and broad cytotoxicities. Their cytotoxicities against human lung carcinoma A549, human chronic myelogenous leukemia K562, and human ovarian adenocarcinoma SK-OV-3 are compatible with doxorubicin. Compound 2p (1-[(4-aminobenzoyl)indoline-5-sulfonyl])-4-phenyl-4,5-dihydroimidazolone) exhibits a cytotoxicity that is far more potent than doxorubicin and also exhibits highly effective antitumour activities against murine (3LL, Colon 26) and human xenograft (NCI-H23, SW620) tumor models.

A series of 2,4,6-tripyridyl pyridines were synthesized, and evaluated for their antitumor cytotoxicity, topoisomerase I and II inhibitory activity. From the eighteen prepared compounds, compounds 10-12 have shown better or similar cytotoxicity against several human cancer cell lines as compared to 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine and doxorubicin. Especially, compound 10 exhibited the most potent cytotoxicity better than positive controls. Structure-activity relationship study indicated that 2,2':6',2"-terpyridine skeleton has an important role in displaying significant cytotoxicity against several human cancer cell lines.

목적: mdr1유전자를 표적으로 한 short hairpin RNA (shMDR)는 다약재내성을 나타내는 암세포에서 효과적으로 mdr1 유전자의 발현을 억제 할 수 있고 sodium iodide symporter (NIS)는 유전자 치료와 리포터로의 기능을 동시에 나타낼 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 사람 대장암세포(HCT15)에 shMDR과 NIS를 동시에 이입하고 Tc-99m sestamibi와 I-125 섭취를 측정하였고 doxorubicin과 I-131 치료효과도 관찰하였다. 대상 및 방법: 사람 태아 신장 세포주(Human Embryonic Kidney cells; HEK293)에 liposome 시약으로 shMDR을 이입하고 RT-PCR과 western blot으로 분석하였다. shMDR와 NIS 유전자가 발현하는 adenovirus를 만들고 HCT15 세포에 이입 후 48시간에 shMDR에 의한 Pgp의 기능 억제를 확인하기위해 Tc-99m sestamibi 섭취와 doxorubicin 세포독성을 측정하였다. 또한 NIS유전자의 기능을 확인 하기위해 I-125 섭취와 I-131 세포독성도 확인하였다. 결과: shMDR이 이입 된 HEK293 세포에서 mdr1의 mRNA와 Pgp의 발현이 각각 75%, 80% 감소하였다. NIS 유전자가 발현하는 adenovirus를 HCT15 세포에 이입하고 NIS 유전자 발현을 확인 한 결과 대조군에 비해 월등히 높게 발현하였다. Ad-shMDR 300 MOI, Ad-shMDR 300 MOI 와 Ad-NIS 10 MOI를 처리한 경우 Tc-99m sestamibi의 섭취가 대조군보다 1.5배 정도 증가하였다. HCT15 세포에 Ad-NIS 10 MOI를 감염시킨 경우 I-125 섭취가 대조군에 비해 25배 이상 증가였다. 또한 Ad-shMDR와 Ad-NIS를 동시 감염 시켰을 경우 doxorubicin의 세포 독성이 증가하여 나타났고 Ad-NIS 20 MOI를 감염시켰을 때 I-131에 의한 세포독성이 대조군보다 증가하였다. 결론: 세포에 shMDR의 이입으로 mdr1 유전자의 발현이 억제되고 Tc-99m sestamibi의 섭취와 doxorubicin의 세포독성이 증가하였으며 NIS 유전자의 이입으로 I-125의 섭취와 I-131의 세포독성이 증가하였다. 다약제내성세포에 shMDR와 NIS 유전자의 동시 이입은 doxorubicin과 방사성 옥소의 이중치료 효과를 높일 수 있을 것으로 본다.

항암 화학요법제의 항암작용을 증가시키거나, 부작용을 감소시켜 항암 치료를 효과적으로 할 수 있는 항암치료 보조제(modulator)에 대한 개발의 일환으로 녹차 추출물의 이용가능성을 추정하기 위하여 사람 폐암 세포주인 A549 세포를 배양하여 시스플라틴과 독소루비신의 항암성에 미치는 녹차 추출물과 EGCG의 영향을 비교 관찰하였다. A549 세포에 독성을 나타나는 농도는 녹차 추출물 $400\;{\mu}g$/mL, EGCG $300\;{\mu}g$/mL, 시스플라틴 $10\;{\mu}g$/mL 및 독소루비신 $8\;{\mu}g$/mL로, 녹차 추출물이 세포독성을 나타내는 농도는 시스플라틴이나 독소루비신에 비하면 낮았다. A549 세포에서 시스플라틴 $10\;{\mu}g$/mL 이상의 농도에서 세포활성이 감소되었고, EGCG나 녹차 추출물 $100\;{\mu}g$/mL를 첨가하면 시스플라틴 $6\;{\mu}g$/mL 이상의 농도에서 세포활성이 감소되어 EGCG나 녹차 추출물 첨가로 시스플라틴의 세포독성이 증가되었다. A549 세포에서 독소루비신 $8\;{\mu}g$/mL 이상의 농도에서 세포활성이 감소되었고, EGCG나 녹차 추출물 $100\;{\mu}g$/mL를 첨가하면 독소루비신 $4\;{\mu}g$/mL 이상의 농도에서 세포활성이 감소되어 EGCG나 녹차 추출물 첨가로 독소루비신의 세포독성이 증가되었다. A549 세포에서 녹차추출물 투여 후 p53 및 caspase 3에 대한 Western blot을 시행한 결과 p53및 caspase-3의 유전자 발현이 증가되었다. 이상의 실험결과 녹차추출물은 광범위 항암제 시스플라틴이나 독소루비신의 세포독성을 증강시키는 효과가 있고, 녹차추출물에 의한 p53이나 caspase-3 등과 같은 세포자살유도 단백질의 발현 증가는 녹차추출물에 의한 세포독성 증강효과와 연관이 있을 것으로 추측된다. 녹차추출물의 시스플라틴이나 독소루비신 세포독성 증강효과는 항암화학요법제의 용량을 늘리지 않고 항암력을 증대시킬 수 있기 때문에 항암화학요법 보조제로서 이용될 수 있는 가능성이 높은 것으로 생각되며, 이러한 효과를 규명하기 위한 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is considered as a deadly medical condition that affects a growing number of people worldwide. Targeted therapy of ESCC has been suggested recently and required extensive research. With cyclin D1 as a therapeutic target, the present study aimed at evaluating the anticancer effects of doxorubicin (Dox) or Hypericum perforatum L. (HP) extract encapsulated in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles on the ESCC cell line KYSE30. Methods: Nanoparticles were prepared using double emulsion method. Cytotoxicity assay was carried out to measure the anti-proliferation activity of Dox-loaded (Dox NPs) and HP-loaded nanoparticles (HP NPs) against both cancer and normal cell lines. The mRNA gene expression of cyclin D1 was evaluated to validate the cytotoxicity studies at molecular level. Results: Free drugs and nanoparticles significantly inhibited KYSE30 cells by 55-73% and slightly affected normal cells up to 29%. The IC50 of Dox NPs and HP NPs was ~ 0.04-0.06 mg/mL and ~ 0.6-0.7 mg/mL, respectively. Significant decrease occurred in cyclin D1 expression by Dox NPs and HP NPs (P < 0.05). Exposure of KYSE-30 cells to combined treatments including both Dox and HP extract significantly increased the level of cyclin D1 expression as compared to those with individual treatments (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Dox NPs and HP NPs can successfully and specifically target ESCC cells through downregulation of cyclin D1. The simultaneous use of Dox and HP extract should be avoided for the treatment of ESCC.

Stimuli-responsive biomaterials that alter their function through sensing local molecular cues may enable technological advances in the fields of drug delivery, gene delivery, actuators, biosensors, and tissue engineering. In this research, pH-responsive hydrogel which is comprised of dimethylaminoethyl methacylate (DMAEMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) was synthesized for the effective delivery of doxorubicin (Dox) to breast cancer cells. Cancer and tumor tissues show a lower extracellular pH than normal tissues. DMAEMA/HEMA hydrogels showed significant sensitivity by small pH changes and each formulation of hydrogels was examined by scanning electron microscopy, mechanical test, equilibrium mass swelling, controlled Dox release, and cytotoxicity. High swelling ratios and Dox release were obtained at low pH buffer condition, low cross-linker concentration, and high content of DMAEMA. Dox release was accelerated to 67.3% at pH 5.5 for 6-h incubation at $37^{\circ}C$, while it was limited to 13.8% at pH7.4 at the same time and temperature. Cell toxicity results to breast cancer cells indicate that pH-responsive DMAEMA/HEMA hydrogels may be used as an efficient matrix for anti-cancer drug delivery with various transporting manners. Also, pH-responsive DMAEMA/HEMA hydrogels may be useful in therapeutic treatment which is required a triggered release at low pH range such as gene delivery, ischemia, and diabetic ketoacidosis.
