A series of bis-thiosemicarbazone agents with coordinating groups capable of multiple metal coordination modes has been generated and evaluated for potential cytotoxic effects against melanoma (MelRm) and breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cell lines. The bis-thiosemicarbazones in this study generally demonstrated superior cytotoxic activity against MelRm than MCF-7 in the absence of metal ion supplementation, but in most cases could not be considered superior to the reference thiosemicarbazone Dp44mT. The key structural features for the cytotoxic activity were the central metal binding atom on the aromatic core, the thiocarbonyl residue and the nature of substitution on the N4-terminus in terms of size and lipophilicity. The cytotoxicity of bis-thiosemicarbazone ligands improved significantly with Cu(II) supplementation, particularly against MCF-7 cells. The mechanism of cytotoxicity of bis-thiosemicarbazones was proposed to be dependent on the combined effect of metal mobilisation and ROS generation which is so called a “double-punch effect”. 相似文献

Zinc is the second most abundant transition metal in the human body, between 3 and 10 % of human genes encoding for zinc binding proteins. We have investigated the interplay of reactive oxygen species and zinc homeostasis on the cytotoxicity of the thiosemicarbazone chelators against the MCF-7 cell line. The cytotoxicity of thiosemicarbazone chelators against MCF-7 can be improved through supplementation of ionic zinc provided the zinc ion is at a level exceeding the thiosemicarbazone concentration. Elimination of the entire cell population can be accomplished with this regime, unlike the plateau of cytotoxicity observed on thiosemicarbazone monotherapy. The cytotoxic effects of copper complexes of the thiosemicarbazone are not enhanced by zinc supplementation, displacement of copper from the complex being disfavoured. Treatment of MCF-7 with uncomplexed thiosemicarbazone initiates post G1 blockade alongside the induction of apoptosis, cell death being abrogated through subsequent supplementation with zinc ion after drug removal. This would implicate a metal depletion mechanism in the cytotoxic effect of the un-coordinated thiosemicarbazone. The metal complexes of the species, however, fail to initiate similar G1 blockade and apparently exert their cytotoxic effect through generation of reactive oxygen species, suggesting that multiple mechanisms of cytotoxicity can be associated with the thiosemicarbazones dependant on the level of metal ion association. 相似文献

Two distinct cytotoxic T lymphocyte subpopulations in patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease that recognize human melanoma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The functional properties of cytotoxic lymphocytes from patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease ( VKH ) specific for human melanoma cells (P-36 melanoma cell line established from a patient with malignant melanoma) were investigated by using monoclonal antibodies specific for human T cell subsets. Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from patients with VKH showed significant cytotoxic activity against the P-36 (SK-MEL-28) human melanoma cell line, but not against a human cervical carcinoma of the uterus cell line (HeLa-S3 cell line) or against a mouse melanoma cell line (B-16 cell line) originating from a C57BL/6 strain mouse or against the EL-4 mouse lymphoma cell line from a C57BL/6 mouse. The cytotoxic activity of the patients' PBL against the P-36 melanoma cell line was markedly reduced by pretreatment of the PBL with monoclonal anti-human Leu-1 antibody plus rabbit complement, but it was reduced to much less extent by pretreatment with either monoclonal anti-human Leu-2a or Leu-3a antibody plus rabbit complement. The specific cytotoxic activity of the patients' PBL against the P-36 human melanoma cell line is, therefore, mediated by T cells bearing Leu-1+ Leu-2a+ or Leu-1+ Leu-3a+ antigens. Furthermore, the cytotoxic activity was shown to be blocked not only by anti-Leu-2a antibody specific to human cytotoxic/suppressor T cells but also unexpectedly by anti-Leu-3a antibody which has previously been considered to be specific to human inducer/helper T cells. The results of this study suggest that at least two distinct subpopulations of cytotoxic T cells specific for P-36 human melanoma cells are present in the peripheral blood of VKH patients. These cytotoxic T cells have different surface antigens, Leu-2a and Leu-3a. 相似文献

Transition metal complexes compounds with Schiff bases ligand representing an important class of compounds that could be used to develop new metal-based anticancer agents and as precursors of metal NPs. Herein, 2,3-bis-[(3-ethoxy-2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino]but-2-enedinitrile Schiff base ligand and its corresponding copper/nickel complexes were synthesized. Also, we reported a facile and rapid method for synthesis nickel/copper nanoparticles based on thermal reduction of their complexes. Free ligand, its metal complexes and metals nanoparticles have been characterized based on elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, magnetic measurements and by various spectroscopic (UV–vis, FT-IR, 1H NMR, GC–MS) techniques. Additionally, the in vitro cytotoxic activity of free ligand and its complexes compounds were assessed against two cancer cell lines (HeLa and MCF-7 cells)and one healthy cell line (HEK293 cell). The copper complex was found to be active against these cancer cell lines at very low LD50 than the free ligand, while nickel complex did not show any anticancer activity against these cell lines. Also, the antibacterial activity of as-prepared copper nanoparticles were screened against Escherichia coli, which demonstrated minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values lower than those values of the commercial Cu NPs as well as the previous reported values. Moreover, the synthesized nickel nanoparticles demonstrated remarkable catalytic performance toward hydrogenation of nitrobenzene that producing clean aniline with high selectivity (98%). This reactivity could be attributed to the high degree of dispersion of Ni nanoparticles. 相似文献

Autologous melanoma-induced activation of regulatory T cells that suppress cytotoxic response 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
N G Chakraborty D R Twardzik M Sivanandham M T Ergin K E Hellstrom B Mukherji 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1990,145(7):2359-2364
The host immune response toward autologous human cancer is subject to regulation by the immunoregulatory network. We show that certain CD4+ T cell clones, derived from melanoma involved lymph node lymphocytes and from PBL stimulated by autologous melanoma cells, selectively down-regulated the induction of cytotoxic immune response of PBL against the respective autologous melanoma cells in two autologous systems. In both systems, only the generation of cytotoxic response against the autologous melanoma cells were suppressed. Cytotoxic response against EBV-infected autologous lymphoblastoid cell line in one case and cytotoxic responses against allogeneic targets in the other were not affected. In addition to suppressor activity selectively expressed against the autologous melanoma cells, the T cell clones up-regulated their Tac receptors when cocultured with the autologous melanoma cells and APC. These results support the existence of a putative tumor Ag-driven activation of regulatory T cells that affect cytotoxic immune response, in vitro, against autologous human melanoma. 相似文献

The natural polyether ionophore antibiotics might be important chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer. In this article, the pharmacology and anticancer activity of the polyether ionophores undergoing pre-clinical evaluation are reviewed. Most of polyether ionophores have shown potent activity against the proliferation of various cancer cells, including those that display multidrug resistance (MDR) and cancer stem cells (CSC). The mechanism underlying the anticancer activity of ionophore agents can be related to their ability to form complexes with metal cations and transport them across cellular and subcellular membranes. Increasing evidence shows that the anticancer activity of polyether ionophores may be a consequence of the induction of apoptosis leading to apoptotic cell death, arresting cell cycle progression, induction of the cell oxidative stress, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, reversion of MDR, synergistic anticancer effect with other anticancer drugs, etc. Continued investigation of the mechanisms of action and development of new polyether ionophores and their derivatives may provide more effective therapeutic drugs for cancer treatments. 相似文献

The aim of this work is to contribute to the elucidation of the cytotoxic process caused by the copper ions released from
the biomaterials. Clonal cell lines UMR106 were used in the experiments. Copper ions were obtained from two different sources:
copper salts and metal dissolution. Experiments carried out with constant ion concentrations (copper salts) were compared
with those with concentrations that vary with time and location (dissolution of the metal). Present results and others previously
reported could be interpreted through mathematical models that describe: (1) the variation of concentration of copper ions
with time and location within a biofilm and (2) the variation of the killing rate with the concentration of the toxic ion
and time. The large number of dead cells found near the copper sample with an average ion concentration below the toxic limit
could be interpreted bearing in mind that these cells should be exposed to a local concentration higher than this limit. A
logarithmic dependence between the number of cells and exposure time was found for nearly constant ion concentrations. Apparent
discrepancies, observed when these results and those of different researchers were contrasted, could be explained considering
the dissimilar experimental conditions such as the source of the ions and their local concentration at real time. 相似文献

The potential existence of down-regulation of cytotoxic immune response against an autologous human melanoma line was investigated as a possible explanation for cytotoxic unresponsiveness against the autologous melanoma cells. The melanoma cell line, PJ-M, was established and lymph node resident lymphocytes (LNL) were isolated from a lymph node which was partially infiltrated with the melanoma cells. Autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) were sensitized in in vitro co-culture (IVC) against radiated PJ-M cells in the presence or absence of PJ-M-sensitized LNL and enriched suppressor (OKT8+) or inducer (OKT4+) LNL populations, and were assayed for cytotoxicity in a 4-hr 51Cr-release microcytotoxicity assay. Significant cytotoxic response against PJ-M could be generated in the PBL, but not in the LNL. The addition of sensitized, unfractionated LNL, OKT8+, or OKT4+ LNL populations abrogated cytotoxic response in the PBL against PJ-M. The suppression of cytotoxic response was induced selectively against the PJ-M targets, because IVC of PBL in the presence of the sensitized LNL did not affect the generation of polyclonal cytotoxic alloreactivities, nor did they abrogate the generation of cytotoxic response against allogeneic targets in IVC against the corresponding allogeneic targets. These results suggest the possibility that cytotoxic immune response against the autologous melanoma cells might have been suppressed by the individual's own immunoregulatory circuit. 相似文献

The cytotoxic immune response in the peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) against an autologous malignant melanoma cell line, PJ-M, was found to be down-regulated in in vitro co-culture (IVC) selectively by unfractionated resident lymph node lymphocytes (derived from a lymph node infiltrated with the PJ-M melanoma cells) and T4+ as well as T8+ fractions of the resident lymph node-derived lymphocytes. In this study, the mechanism involved in, and the specificities of, cytotoxic immune response in this autologous system were examined at population and clonal levels. Resident lymph node lymphocytes were isolated from both involved and uninvolved lymph nodes from the same patient. Resident lymphocytes from both sources regulated the generation of cytotoxic immune response when both types of resident lymph node lymphocytes were further sensitized against the PJ-M cells in IVC and were expanded in interleukin 2 (IL 2). An IL 2-dependent homogeneous lymphocyte line (I-10:1) bearing the phenotype of a helper T cell (T4+) and a T4+ clone (I-10.3) of the I-10:1 line, established by limiting dilution culture, also down-regulated the generation of cytotoxic immune effector cells in the PBL in IVC against the PJ-M targets. The IL 2-dependent T4+ inducer line I-10:1 generated a functionally differentiated T8+ suppressor population(s) that, in turn, could abrogate cytotoxic response in fresh PBL in IVC against PJ-M cells. The inducer line I-10:1 and its subclone I-10.3 suppressed the generation of cytotoxic effector cells in the PBL in IVC selectively against the autologous PJ-M cells. Generation of cytotoxic allo-response in IVC was unaffected by the inducer lines. These results provide further evidence for the involvement of the regulatory network in cytotoxic immune response in an autologous human tumor system, and suggest a potential explanation for cytotoxic unresponsiveness against autologous melanoma cells. 相似文献

Summary Oncofetal antigen I (OFA-I) has been identified by immunofluorescence and immune adherence (IA) as a membrane antigen on human tumor cells, which cross-reacts with fetal brain tissue. This antigen induces humoral antibody in patients with cancer. The present work was designed to evaluate the complement-dependent cytotoxic potential of anti-OFA-I antibody produced in melanoma patients against an OFA-I-positive melanoma cell line, UCLA SO M14 (M14). Patients' sera were chosen on the basis of anti-OFA-I activity by IA. Alloantibodies to M14 were removed by absorption of the sera with lymphoblastoid cells autologous to M14. Fourteen sera were tested, and all demonstrated cytotoxic activity in the presence of rabbit complement. Human complement was also shown to mediate cytotoxicity, although less effectively than rabbit complement. The specificity of the reaction was confirmed when the cytotoxic capability could be absorbed by fetal brain, but not by autologous fetal liver tissues. These results indicate that a patient's serum antibody to OFA-I can lyse tumor cells expressing this antigen. 相似文献

A majority of the biotherapeutics industry today relies on the manufacturing of monoclonal antibodies from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, yet challenges remain with maintaining consistent product quality from high-producing cell lines. Previous studies report the impact of individual trace metal supplemental on CHO cells, and thus, the combinatorial effects of these metals could be leveraged to improve bioprocesses further. A three-level factorial experimental design was performed in fed-batch shake flasks to evaluate the impact of time wise addition of individual or combined trace metals (zinc and copper) on CHO cell culture performance. Correlations among each factor (experimental parameters) and response variables (changes in cell culture performance) were examined based on their significance and goodness of fit to a partial least square's regression model. The model indicated that zinc concentration and time of addition counter-influence peak viable cell density and antibody production. Meanwhile, early copper supplementation influenced late-stage ROS activity in a dose-dependent manner likely by alleviating cellular oxidative stress. Regression coefficients indicated that combined metal addition had less significant impact on titer and specific productivity compared to zinc addition alone, although titer increased the most under combined metal addition. Glycan analysis showed that combined metal addition reduced galactosylation to a greater extent than single metals when supplemented during the early growth phase. A validation experiment was performed to confirm the validity of the regression model by testing an optimized setpoint of metal supplement time and concentration to improve protein productivity. 相似文献

Summary In order to gain a better understanding of the interaction between immunotoxins and tumor cells at the level of three-dimensional tumor mass, we evaluated the cell kill effects of monoclonal antimelanoma-antibody/ricin-A-chain immunotoxin (ITN) on melanoma cells in multicellular tumor spheroids (MTS) as well as the penetration of ITN into MTS. For Minor melanoma cells in monolayer the ITN exerted cytotoxic effects after as little as 1 h of exposure. Increasing exposure time resulted in progressive increases in cytotoxic activity. In contrast, the cell kill effects of ITN were markedly delayed and reduced when Minor cells were in MTS. The ITN cytotoxic effects on the melanoma MTS were more than 100 fold less than those in monolayer. Patterns of ITN-induced cytotoxicities for Minor and for another melanoma cell line, DND-1A, were comparable. The native ricin A was more active against PC-10 squamous lung cancer cells than Minor cells, whereas the ITN was more cytotoxic against Minor cells than PC-10 cells, thus exhibiting selectivity. An autoradiographic study revealed time-dependent penetration of radiolabeled ITN from the surface of Minor MTS into the core. Incubation for 1 h resulted in the penetration of ITN into only the two or three outer layers of the Minor MTS, and low grain counts. Prolonged exposure resulted in inhomogeneous penetration of ITN into almost the entire melanoma MTS. Penetration of ITN into PC-10 MTS was extremely poor. The reduced cytotoxicity of ITN on melanoma cells in MTS as compared to cells grown in monolayer appears to correlate with its inhomogeneous distribution in the MTS. The delayed cytotoxicity of ITN is also consistent with its slow penetration into the core of the MTS. 相似文献

A series of new antibacterial and antifungal coumarin-derived compounds and their transition metal complexes [cobalt (II), copper (II), nickel (II) and zinc (II)] have been synthesized, characterized and screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Shigella dysenteriae, Bacillus cereus, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes bacterial strains and for in vitro antifungal activity against Trichophyton longifusus, Candida albicans, Aspergillus flavus, Microsporum canis, Fusarium solani, Candida glaberata. The results of these studies show the metal complexes to be more antibacterial and antifungal as compared to the uncomplexed coumarins. The brine shrimp bioassay was also carried out to study their in vitro cytotoxic properties. 相似文献

The design, synthesis, and antimalarial activity of chimeras of thiosemicarbazones (TSC) and ferroquine (FQ) is reported. Key structural elements derived from FQ were coupled to fragments capable of coordinating metal ions. Biological evaluation was conducted against four strains of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum and against the parasitic cysteine protease falcipain-2. To establish the role of the ferrocenyl moiety in the antiplasmodial activity of this series, purely organic parent compounds were also synthesized and tested. The presence of the aminoquinoline structure, allowing transport of the compounds to the food vacuole of the parasite, seems to be the major contributor to antimalarial activity. 相似文献

A series of salicylaldehyde benzoylhydrazone derivatives, their copper(II) complexes and a range of transition metal complexes of the unsubstituted ligand has been synthesized and evaluated for cytotoxicity against a human adenocarcinoma cell line. A QSAR analysis revealed ligand cytotoxicity is strongly correlated with electronic and transport factors and can be modeled by treating each 'half' of the molecule as an isolated unit. Activity increases when substituents in the benzoyl ring were electron withdrawing whereas, for the salicylaldehyde ring, electron donation was required. The cytotoxicity of the Cu(II) complexes was greater than, and paralleled the ligands. Activity for the transition metal complexes of the unsubstituted ligand mirrored charge density on the metal. 相似文献

A method is described for the preparation of novel cephalexin-derived furanyl-, thiophenyl-, pyrrolyl-, salicylyl- and pyridyl-containing compounds showing potent antibacterial activity. The binding of these newly synthesized antibacterial agents with metal ions such as cobalt(II), copper(II), nickel(II) and zinc(II) has been studied and their inhibitory properties against various bacterial species such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae are also reported. These results suggest that metal ions to possess an important role in the designing of metal-based antibacterials and that such complexes are more effective against infectious diseases compared to the uncomplexed drugs. 相似文献

Analysis of human melanocytes and melanoma cell lines for proteins interacting with the octamer control sequence (ATGCAAAT) has revealed two distinct melanoma octamer binding proteins, Oct-M1 and Oct-M2. The latter was restricted to cell lines derived from tumor metastases. The level of Oct-M1 activity in a pigmented melanoma line was enhanced in comparison to the general octamer binding protein Oct-1 when cells were cultured in the presence of the depigmenting agent dithiothreitol and conversely was reduced by the differentiating and pigment inducing agents butyric acid and dimethyl sulfoxide. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to evaluate for the first time the in vitro cytotoxic activity of fractions and isolated flavonols from Salsola oppositifolia Desf. (Amaranthaceae). The n-hexane fraction demonstrated an effective cytotoxic activity on the large lung carcinoma and amelanotic melanoma cell lines with IC50 values of 19.1 microg/ml and 24.4 microg/ml, respectively. Also the dichloromethane fraction exhibited cytotoxic activity against COR-L23 (IC50 30.4 microg/ml) and C32 (IC50 33.2 microg/ml) cells, while the EtOAc fraction demonstrated a selective cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 cells (IC50 67.9 microg/ml). The major active constituents of this fraction were isorhamnetin-3-O-glucoside (1) and isorhamnetin-3-O-rutinoside (2), which showed an interesting activity against the cell line MCF-7 with IC50 values of 18.2 and 25.2 microg/ml, respectively. Compound 2 exhibited a strong activity against the hormone-dependent prostate carcinoma LNCaP cell line with an IC50 of 20.5 microg/ml. Constituents of S. oppositifolia were identified by GC-MS and NMR analyses. 相似文献
