the effect of rapamycin on oxidative stress in mcf-7 and mda mb-231 human breast cancer cell lines

چکیده
conclusions these outcomes support our theory that rapamycin increases oxidative stress in mcf-7 and mda mb-231 cells but also shows high levels of antioxidant effects, which probably limit the effects of the rapamycin on the same issue in the clinic. methods the mcf-7 and mda mb-231 cell lines were cultivated and treated with rapamycin for 72 hours. the viability of the cells was determined using the colorimetric mtt assay. lipid peroxidation (tbars), protein oxidation (carbonyl groups), total antioxidant capacity assay, and glutathione (gsh) levels were measured in the mcf-7 and mda mb-231 cells both with and without rapamycin treatment. background mammalian target of rapamycin (mtor) is a kinase pathway that regulates the cell cycle progression and growth. rapamycin inhibits this pathway. the useful effects of rapamycin on cell growth have been widely shown in animal studies. however, its beneficial effects are associated with some success in benign and malignant cancers, which have produced its moderate outcomes in the clinic. results the ic50 concentration of rapamycin was 100 nm in mcf-7 cells, whereas the mda-mb-231 cells were highly resistant to rapamycin. our data indicated an increase in oxidative status by increasing lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation, gsh, and total antioxidant capacity levels in the mcf-7 and mda-mb-231 cell lines exposed to rapamycin in comparison with control cells. objectives the aim of this study was to investigate whether rapamycin can induce oxidative stress in mcf-7 and mda mb-231 human breast cancer cell lines.

Cell Kinetic Study of Tamoxifen Treated MCF-7 and MDA-MB 468 Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Apoptosis could be a major mechanism of antitumor effect of tamoxifen. Therefore this study is designed to characterize the kinetic behavior of tamoxifen-induced apoptosis in the estrogen receptor positive (ER+) and negative (ER-) cell lines, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-468. Frequency of cell death was examined by trypan blue and acridine orange staining. Annexin V-Fluorescein/PI was used in flow cytometr...

Background & Aims: Triple-negative breast cancer cells refer to any breast cancer that does not express the genes for the estrogen, progesterone, and HER2 receptors. The Wnt signaling pathway is important in the development and progression of various types of cancers. Quinacrine, a derivative of 9-aminoacridine, has been shown to inhibit the growth of several types of cancer cells. In this stud...

Resveratrol is a naturally occurring anticancer compound present in grapes and wine with antiproliferative properties against breast cancer cells and xenografts. Our objective was to investigate the metabolic alterations that characterize the effects of resveratrol in the human breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 using high-throughput liquid chromatography-based mass spectrometry. In ...
