8-Chloro-cyclic AMP inhibits autocrine and angiogenic growth factor production in human colorectal and breast cancer.

چکیده
8-Chloro-cyclic AMP (8-Cl-cAMP) is a cAMP analogue that specifically down-regulates type I protein kinase A, a signaling protein directly involved in cell proliferation and neoplastic transformation, and that causes growth inhibition in a variety of human cancer cell types. In this report, we have investigated the effects of 8-Cl-cAMP on the expression of several growth factors in human colon (GEO and LS174T) and breast (MDA-MB468) cancer cell lines. 8-Cl-cAMP treatment caused in the three cancer cell lines a significant dose- and time-dependent inhibition in the expression of various endogenous autocrine growth factors, such as transforming growth factor alpha, amphiregulin, and CRIPTO, and of two angiogenic factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor, at both the mRNA and protein levels. Furthermore, 8-Cl-cAMP treatment markedly inhibited the ability of all three cell lines to invade a basement membrane matrix in a chemoinvasion assay. Finally, 8-Cl-cAMP-induced inhibition of GEO tumor growth in nude mice was accompanied by a significant suppression of transforming growth factor alpha, amphiregulin, CRIPTO, basic fibroblast growth factor, and vascular endothelial growth factor production by the tumor cells, and of neoangiogenesis, as detected by factor VIII staining of host blood cells. These results demonstrate that 8-Cl-cAMP is a novel anticancer drug that inhibits the production of various autocrine and paracrine tumor growth factors that are important in sustaining autonomous local growth and facilitate invasion and metastasis.

متن کاملProstaglandin E2 stimulates the growth of colon cancer cells via induction of amphiregulin.
Prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)), a major product of cyclooxygenase enzymes, is implicated in colorectal carcinogenesis and has been shown to stimulate the growth of human colorectal carcinoma cells. Here, we show that PGE(2) activated the cyclic AMP/protein kinase A pathway, which induced the expression of amphiregulin (AR), an epidermal growth factor family member, through activation of a cyclic A...
متن کاملGrowth inhibition of human glioma cells induced by 8-chloroadenosine, an active metabolite of 8-chloro cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate.
8-Chloroadenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (8ClcAMP) inhibits the growth of human glioma cell lines at much lower concentrations than more commonly used cyclic AMP analogues, without inducing morphological differentiation. The mechanism by which 8ClcAMP exerts this effect is not fully understood. We examined whether the growth-inhibitory effect of this compound is due to an active metabolite, using ...
متن کاملEffects of Enoxaparin Emulsion on Dimethylbenzanthracene-induced Breast Cancer in Female Rats
Background : Enoxaparin is an anticoagulant medication. Anticoagulation inhibits tumor cell–mediated release of angiogenic proteins and diminishes angiogenic response. Angiogenesis is an important event in various cancers such as breast cancer. Angiogenesis provide oxygen and nutrients to tumor cells and causes tumor progression. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the anti-angio...

Objective(s)Metformin is well known for activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK activation inhibits mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) as a key signaling process in cell proliferation. Recent epidemiological studies demonstrate that metformin lowers the risk for several types of cancer in diabetic patients. Concerning the critical role of angiogenesis in the incidence and prog...
