Inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 activity by celecoxib does not lead to radiosensitization of human prostate cancer cells in vitro.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the potential radiosensitizing effect of the specific COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib (Celebrex) on prostate carcinoma cells in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The influence of celecoxib (concentration range 5 to 75 microM) on radiation-induced cellular and clonogenic survival was investigated in prostate carcinoma cell lines PC-3, DU145, LNCaP and normal prostate epithelial cells (PrEC). Western blot analysis and ELISA were used to determine the impact of radiation alone or radiation combined with celecoxib treatment on COX-2 expression and prostaglandin E2 synthesis. To evaluate induction of celecoxib-induced apoptosis cell cycle analysis has been performed. RESULTS: Celecoxib (5, 10 and 25 microM) in combination with single-dose irradiation of 2 Gy induced a significant radiosensitization in normal prostate epithelial cells which could not be observed for any of the prostate carcinoma cell lines investigated. Increased COX-2 protein expression in PC-3 cells was obvious only after IR with 15 Gy, while PGE2 production was elevated following irradiation (2-15 Gy) in a dose-dependent manner. Treatment with celecoxib alone or in combination with IR led to a dose-dependent increase in COX-2 protein expression. Nevertheless pre-treatment with celecoxib caused a marked reduction of radiation-induced enzyme activity as tested at the level of PGE2 production, both in PC-3 and DU145 cells. Following fractionated irradiation with single doses of 2 Gy, elevated COX-2 protein expression as well as enhanced PGE2 production was observed already after the second fraction in PC-3 cells. Pre-treatment with celecoxib reduced the amount of PGE(2) significantly, but not of COX-2 protein. CONCLUSIONS: Our data obtained for the human prostate cancer cell lines do not indicate that a marked inhibition of prostaglandin E2 synthesis by celecoxib leads to enhanced radiosensitization. Thus, in terms of radiosensitization the analysed prostate cancer cells can be classified as non-responders to celecoxib treatment.     

Inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression by Tet-inducible COX-2 antisense cDNA in hormone-refractory prostate cancer significantly slows tumor growth and improves efficacy of chemotherapeutic drugs.

PURPOSE: Overexpression of the proinflammatory enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is associated with the progression of various malignancies; the role of COX-2 in prostate cancer is less clear. The significance of COX-2 in prostate cancer growth and response to chemotherapy was investigated in an androgen-refractory prostate cancer cell line using a Tet-inducible antisense COX-2 expression system. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: An antisense COX-2 cDNA construct under the control of a doxycycline-inducible promoter was transfected into a prostate cancer cell line, PC-3ML. Modulations of cell growth, apoptosis, and chemosensitivity in the presence or absence of doxycycline were analyzed. Tumor incidence, growth rate, and response to two cytotoxic drugs, COL-3 [chemically modified tetracycline-3-(6-demethyl-6-deoxy-4-dedimethylamino-tetracycline)] and Taxotere (docetaxel), were investigated in tumor xenografts. Apoptotic incidences and tumor microvessel density in tumors were determined by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Conditional suppression of COX-2 in PC-3ML caused reduced cell proliferation, decreased levels of phosphorylated AKT, G(0)-G(1) arrest, and increased apoptosis and caspase-3 activity. Suppression of COX-2 increased Bax protein and decreased Bcl-x(L) protein in vitro. COX-2 antisense-expressing PC-3ML tumors showed a 57% growth delay compared with nontransfected or vector controls. Oral administration of COL-3 (40 mg/kg, oral gavage) or Taxotere (2.3 mg/kg, intraperitoneally; 3x per week) in tumor-bearing mice further slowed tumor growth (65% and approximately 94%, respectively). Compared with the control group, the occurrence of apoptosis in antisense COX-2 tumors was eight times higher, and the tumor microvessel density was three times lower. CONCLUSIONS: These results provide direct evidence that constitutive expression of COX-2 in prostate cancer has both angiogenic and cytoprotective functions. Suppression of tumor cell COX-2 is sufficient to enhance chemotherapy response in prostate cancer.     

Demethoxycurcumin inhibits cell proliferation, migration and invasion in prostate cancer cells

Curcumin (CUR) is a natural agent that has been demonstrated to effectively inhibit prostate cancer growth. However, natural CUR is relatively unstable and can be easily degraded in vivo. Therefore, it is essential to develop other stable curcuminoids. Demethoxycurcumin (DMC) is a candidate that has been verified in several tumor types and has potential for the treatment of prostate cancer. In the present study, we investigated the effects of DMC on proliferation, apoptosis and migration of PC-3 cells. MTT assay results indicated that DMC inhibited PC-3 cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner, and DMC induced G2/M phase arrest. Furthermore, PC-3 cells in DMC-treated groups had a higher apoptotic rate compared with DMSO-treated control. This effect may be due to the activation of the caspase-3 pathway. In DMC-treated groups, migrating and invasive cells were dramatically reduced (P<0.05). The activity of MMP-2, which is correlated with migration and invasion was also suppressed by DMC. These results indicated that DMC may inhibit PC-3 cell migration and invasion partially by affecting MMP-2 activity. In conclusion, DMC significantly inhibits proliferation, migration and invasion of cultured PC-3 cells, and this study may provide evidence for future in vivo studies and clinical use.

Colon cancer cells expressing cell surface GRP78 as a marker for reduced tumorigenicity

Background

The glucose regulated heat shock protein 78 (GRP78) is a central regulator of ER (endoplasmic reticulum) stress due to its pro-survival property. Up regulated GRP78 expression in tumor cells has been correlated with aggressive malignancies whereas some reports have predicted an improved prognosis. Over-expression of GRP78 in the ER promotes its localization to the cell surface on several cell types including tumor cells.

Methods

In order to elucidate whether GRP78 receptor positive and negative tumor cells manifest different properties in colorectal cancer, we first artificially separated GRP78 positive and negative sub-populations from HM7 and HCT116 cell lines using anti GRP78 antibody coated magnetic beads.

Results

Only GRP78 negative cells were highly proliferative, induced significant growth in tumor size in nude mice and metastasized to the liver in a human metastatic colorectal carcinoma model in mice. In contrast, GRP78 positive cells manifested reduced proliferation, colony formation, tumor growth and liver metastases. The reduced tumorigenicity of GRP78 positive subpopulation was abrogated by silencing GRP78 expression using siRNA oligomers. In our efforts to induce cell surface GRP78, we subjected the cells to doxorubicin and taxol that increased significantly the percent of GRP78 positive population. Cells pre-incubated with doxorubicin exhibited reduced proliferation and tumor growth in mice.

Conclusion

This study demonstrates the significance of cell surface GRP78 in colon cancer, which may be used as a marker for reduced tumorigenicity.     

Overexpression of Fn14 promotes androgen-independent prostate cancer progression through MMP-9 and correlates with poor treatment outcome

Fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14), a transmembrane receptor binding to the multifunctional cytokine tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK), is known to modulate many cellular activities including cancer progression. Here, we demonstrated the significant role of Fn14 in invasion, migration and proliferation of androgen-independent prostate cancer (AIPC) cells. Fn14 and its ligand TWEAK were highly expressed in two AIPC cell lines, DU 145 and PC-3, whereas expression was weak in androgen-sensitive LNCaP cells. Fn14 knockdown using small-interfering RNAs attenuated migration, invasion and proliferation and enhanced apoptosis in the AIPC cell lines. Both forced overexpression of Fn14 by stable Fn14 complementary DNA transfection to PC-3 cells (PC-3/Fn14) and ligand activation by recombinant TWEAK in PC-3 cells enhanced invasion. Fn14 was shown to modulate expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, and MMP-9 mediated the invasive potential influenced by Fn14 in PC-3 cells. In vivo, subcutaneous xenografts of PC-3/Fn14 grew significantly faster than xenograft of PC-3/Mock, and the invasive capacity in PC-3/Fn14 was found to be higher than that of PC-3/Mock as evaluated in an invasion model of the diaphragm. Furthermore, the messenger RNA expressions of MMP-9 in PC-3/Fn14 xenografts were significantly higher than those in PC-3/Mock xenografts. Clinically, high expression of Fn14 was significantly associated with higher prostate-specific antigen recurrence rate in patients who underwent radical prostatectomy. In conclusion, the overexpression of Fn14 may contribute to multiple malignant cellular phenotypes associated with prostate cancer (PCa) progression, in part via MMP-9. TWEAK-Fn14 signaling may be a novel therapeutic target of PCa.     

三七总皂苷对前列腺癌PC-3细胞增殖及迁移的抑制作用

探讨三七总皂苷对人前列腺癌PC-3细胞增殖及迁移的抑制作用,初步研究该药物的作用机制,并为前列腺癌的药物治疗及扩展tPNS的临床应用提供实验依据。方法:采用MTT实验、细胞计数、伤口愈合实验等方法检测tPNS对PC-3细胞增殖及迁移的影响;采用Western blot及明胶酶图分析等方法对增殖细胞核抗原（proliferating cell nuclear antigen,PCNA）、血管细胞间黏附分子1（vascular cell adhesion molecule 1,VCAM-1）及迁移相关蛋白基质金属蛋白酶2（matrix metalloproteinases 2,MMP-2）等进行检测。通过检测p38 MAPK及ERK途径的磷酸化变化,探讨tPNS对PC-3细胞作用的可能信号途径。结果:tPNS可抑制PC-3细胞增殖,随着tPNS浓度（200、400、800 mg/L）的增加,对PC-3细胞的抑制率分别增加至13.0%、29.5%和35.9%（P<0.05）。tPNS下调PC-3细胞增殖标志物PCNA的表达水平,该效应呈量效及时效关系。tPNS（200、400、800 mg/L）可显著抑制PC-3细胞迁移。tPNS还可显著下调迁移相关蛋白MMP-2及黏附分子VCAM-1的表达水平。tPNS可显著增加p38 MAPK的磷酸化水平,但对ERK磷酸化影响不明显。结论:tPNS抑制人前列腺癌PC-3细胞增殖及迁移活性,这些生物学作用可能与该药抑制PCNA、VCAM-1、MMP-2的表达及激活p38 MAPK信号通路有关。      

Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells produced TGFbeta contributes to progression and metastasis of prostate cancer

Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) play an important role in the development of human cancers. In the present study, we observed that hMSCs promoted human prostate cancer (PCa) cell PC-3 growth in vivo and in vitro. The conditional medium of hMSCs promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion of PC-3 cells. The expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in PC-3 was upregulated by conditional medium of hMSCs. In addition, blocking tumor transformation factor beta (TGFβ) blunted the pro-oncogenic function of hMSCs. These results suggest that hMSCs may play a pro-oncogenic role in the growth of human prostate caner by producing TGFβ.     

Induction of cyclo-oxygenase-2 mRNA by prostaglandin E2 in human prostatic carcinoma cells.

Prostaglandins are synthesized from arachidonic acid by the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase. There are two isoforms of cyclooxygenases: COX-1 (a constitutive form) and COX-2 (an inducible form). COX-2 has recently been categorized as an immediate-early gene and is associated with cellular growth and differentiation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of exogenous dimethylprostaglandin E2 (dmPGE2) on prostate cancer cell growth. Results of these experiments demonstrate that administration of dmPGE2 to growing PC-3 cells significantly increased cellular proliferation (as measured by the cell number), total DNA content and endogenous PGE2 concentration. DmPGE2 also increased the steady-state mRNA levels of its own inducible synthesizing enzyme, COX-2, as well as cellular growth to levels similar to those seen with fetal calf serum and phorbol ester. The same results were observed in other human cancer cell types, such as the androgen-dependent LNCaP cells, breast cancer MDA-MB-134 cells and human colorectal carcinoma DiFi cells. In PC-3 cells, the dmPGE2 regulation of the COX-2 mRNA levels was both time dependent, with maximum stimulation seen 2 h after addition, and dose dependent on dmPGE2 concentration, with maximum stimulation seen at 5 microg ml(-1). The non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug flurbiprofen (5 microM), in the presence of exogenous dmPGE2, inhibited the up-regulation of COX-2 mRNA and PC-3 cell growth. Taken together, these data suggest that PGE2 has a specific role in the maintenance of human cancer cell growth and that the activation of COX-2 expression depends primarily upon newly synthesized PGE2, perhaps resulting from changes in local cellular PGE2 concentrations.     

Enhancement of osteoclastogenic activity in osteolytic prostate cancer cells by physical contact with osteoblasts

Background:

The interaction between prostate cancer cells and osteoblasts is critical for the development of bone metastasis. Metastatic cancer cells may physically contact osteoblasts in the bone microenvironment; however, the biological significance of this interaction is not fully understood.

Methods:

Human prostate cancer cells (the osteolytic cell line PC-3 and the osteoblastic cell line MDA-PCa 2b) and human osteoblasts (hFOB1.19) were cocultured under two different conditions (bilayer and contact conditions). Differential gene expression profiles of prostate cancer cells were then investigated using microarray analysis. Differentially expressed genes were analysed using RT–PCR and western blotting, and the effect of anti-cadherin neutralising antibodies on their expression was assayed. The osteoclastogenic activity of cells grown under these different conditions was also investigated using an in vitro assay.

Results:

When PC-3 or MDA-PCa 2b cells were cocultured with hFOB1.19 cells under contact conditions, the expression of eight genes was upregulated and that of one gene was downregulated in PC-3 cells compared with gene expression in bilayer culture. No differentially expressed genes were detected in MDA-PCa 2b cells. Four of the eight upregulated genes (interleukin-1β (IL-1β), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-6 and the third component of complement (C3)) have already been reported to participate in osteoclastogenesis. Indeed, a cell lysate of PC-3 cells grown under contact coculture conditions significantly enhanced osteoclastogenesis in vitro (P<0.005). neutralisation of cadherin-11 with a specific antibody inhibited upregulation of COX-2 and C3 mRNA in PC-3 cells. In contrast, neutralisation of N-cadherin induced upregulation of COX-2 mRNA.

Conclusion:

Physical contact between osteolytic prostate cancer cells and osteoblasts may upregulate osteoclastogenesis-related gene expression in prostate cancer cells and enhance osteoclastogenesis. Additionally, cadherin-11 and N-cadherin are involved in this process. These data provide evidence supporting new therapies of prostate cancer bone metastasis that target direct cancer-cell-osteoblast cell–cell contact.     

Inhibition of human androgen-independent PC-3 and DU-145 prostate cancers by antagonists of bombesin and growth hormone releasing hormone is linked to PKC, MAPK and c-jun intracellular signalling

Bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (BN/GRP) antagonists RC-3940-II and RC-3940-Et, and growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) antagonists MZ-J-7-118 and RC-J-29-18 inhibit the growth of human androgen-independent PC-3 and DU-145 prostate cancers in nude mice. Additive inhibitory effects were observed after treatment with both classes of analogs. In the present study, we investigated the effects of these antagonists on intracellular signalling pathways of protein kinase C (PKC), mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK) and c-fos and c-jun oncogenes that are involved in tumour cell proliferation. In PC-3 tumours, antagonists of BN/GRP and GHRH decreased significantly the expression of PKC isoforms alpha (alpha), eta (eta) and zeta (zeta) and increased that of delta (delta) PKC protein. MAPK was not detectable. In DU-145 tumours, which constitutively express MAPK, all treatments strongly decreased the levels of p42/44 MAPK. Treatment with the antagonists tended to reduce m-RNA for c-jun in both tumour models. In proliferation assays in vitro, inhibitors of PKC and MAPK diminished growth of DU-145 and PC-3 cells. These findings suggest that antagonists of BN/GRP and GHRH inhibit the growth of androgen-independent prostate cancer by affecting intracellular signalling mechanisms of PKC, MAPK and c-jun.
