Dose-response effects of the COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib, on the chemoprevention of mammary carcinogenesis 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26

Recent chemopreventive studies in our laboratories showed that the COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib, inhibited the induction of mammary cancer by 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA). In this study, we examined the relative chemopreventive effect of varying doses of celecoxib on the development and growth of DMBA-induced rat mammary tumors. At 10 days prior to receiving a single intragastric dose of 15 mg DMBA/rat, female Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a control chow diet or diets containing 250, 500, 1000 or 1500 ppm celecoxib until termination of the experiment. Administration of increasing doses of celecoxib inhibited mammary tumor incidence and multiplicity as well as tumor volume in a dose-dependent manner. At 122 days post DMBA-intubation, mammary tumor incidence was 100% in the control rats compared to 80%, 50%, 45% and 25% in rats receiving 250, 500, 1000 or 1500 ppm celecoxib, respectively (p<0.001). Similarly, tumor multiplicity and tumor volume were significantly reduced by increasing the dose of celecoxib from 250 to 1500 ppm in the diet. The control rats had an average of 3.46 tumors/rat compared to 1.80, 1.00, 0.75 and 0.50 tumors/rat in animals receiving 250, 500, 1000 or 1500 ppm celecoxib, respectively (p<0.001). Average tumor volumes in rats fed 250, 500, 1000 or 1500 ppm celecoxib were 0.42, 0.34, 0.31 and 0.16 cm3 compared to 1.29 cm3 in the control rats (p<0.001). There was a concomitant increase in the steady-state serum concentration of celecoxib with the dose. These results indicate that, in this rat model, the chemopreventive effect of celecoxib against breast cancer is dose-dependent and that celecoxib is effective even at lower dose levels. 相似文献

INTRODUCTION: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been shown to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer in cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) overexpressing colorectal cancers. The present study was designed to evaluate the inhibitory effects of the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib on the growth of colorectal cancer liver metastases in a syngeneic rat model, CC531. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effects of celecoxib on cell viability in vitro were evaluated by treatment of CC531 tumor cell cultures with celecoxib. In vivo, Wag/Rij rats were inoculated with CC531 tumor cells at two sites in the liver and treated with celecoxib starting one week before, or directly after tumor inoculation. Control rats were inoculated without treatment. Three weeks after tumor inoculation rats were sacrificed. Tumor size, immune cell infiltration, caspase-3 activity, PGE(2) and celecoxib levels were determined. RESULTS: CC531 tumors did not show COX-2 expression. Tumor growth was significantly inhibited by celecoxib treatment in a dose dependent manner. Immune cell infiltration was decreased after celecoxib treatment, indicating that the immune system was not involved in preventing tumor growth. Tumor caspase-3 levels were only significantly increased if treatment was started before tumor inoculation. Celecoxib serum concentration starting at 0.84 mug/ml significantly inhibited the outgrowth of CC531 liver tumors. In contrast, in vitro concentrations of celecoxib of at least 12 mug/ml were needed to affect tumor cell viability. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the inhibitory effects of celecoxib on tumor growth are not by direct cytotoxicity, but by creating an unfavorable environment for tumor growth. 相似文献

Introduction
While current breast cancer chemoprevention strategies using selective estrogen response modulators and aromatase inhibitors are quite successful, their effects are limited to hormonally responsive breast cancer. Hormonally nonresponsive breast cancer (including estrogen receptor-negative cancer) is associated with poor prognosis for patients, and few chemoprevention agents exist for this type of cancer. The cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor celecoxib (Celebrex®) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and as such is a potential candidate for the prevention of hormonally nonresponsive breast cancer.Methods
The chemopreventive effects of celecoxib were evaluated in the neu-induced retroviral rat mammary carcinogenesis model, to assess the efficacy of celecoxib on hormonally responsive and hormonally nonresponsive mammary carcinomas.Results
Dietary celecoxib at 1,200 mg/kg diet was highly efficacious in the prevention of hormonally responsive mammary carcinomas in intact rats, decreasing tumor multiplicity by 56% (P < 0.0001) and by 74% (P = 0.0002) in two independent experiments. No significant effect was found, however, on hormonally nonresponsive mammary carcinomas of ovariectomized rats. Treatment with a combination diet, consisting of tamoxifen at 2 mg/kg diet and celecoxib at 1,200 mg/kg diet, reduced tumor multiplicity by 72% (P = 0.0002) in intact rats. This reduction was not statistically different from that observed with celecoxib alone. Furthermore, long-term treatment with celecoxib was not associated with reductions in tumor volume in either intact rats or ovariectomized rats. In contrast, tamoxifen treatment and the combination regimen caused significant reductions in tumor volumes in intact rats (P = 0.01 and P = 0.004, respectively). Consistent with these data, decreases in proliferation and increases in apoptosis were detected in tamoxifen-treated and combination diet-treated tumors. No such modulations were observed in celecoxib-treated tumors.Conclusion
The chemopreventive effects of celecoxib appear to be limited to modulations in multiplicity of hormonally responsive mammary carcinomas. The fact that no synergistic or additive effects were observed in combination diet-treated rats raises the question of whether celecoxib is suitable for the prevention of hormonally nonresponsive breast cancer or for use in combination therapy with selective estrogen response modulators or aromatase inhibitors. 相似文献14.
The possibility that lithium ions stimulate growth of mammary tumors in vivo has been suggested by their mitogenic action in vitro on normal and neoplastic mammary epithelium [8] and their clinical use as stimulators of neutrophil production in tumor-bearing patients treated with cytotoxic drugs [14,15]. Three experiments were performed to assess this possibility. Buffalo/N female rats received a single injection of N-nitrosomethylurea (NMU) at a dose known to produce mammary carcinomas in about 50% of animals under standard conditions. Under lithium treatment, the incidence of tumors did not increase significantly. Sprague-Dawley female rats treated with a single dose of 7,12-dimethylbenz[alpha] anthracene (DMBA), but showing no mammary tumors after 4 months, received lithium in their drinking water for 3 additional months. The number of late-appearing tumors was not increased by lithium treatment. Buffalo/N females with NMU-induced tumors were castrated, and the subsequent changes in tumor volume were compared in lithium-treated and control animals. The regression-regrowth curves were not altered by lithium treatment. These results are in contrast to the growth stimulatory capacity of lithium on mammary epithelium observed in vitro [8] and indicate it is very unlikely that lithium ions have an undesirable growth stimulatory action on primary mammary carcinomas in vivo. 相似文献

The effects of exogenous administration of bovine prolactin and bovine growth hormone (GH) on 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA)-induced mammary tumor were investigated in female Sprague-Dawley rats. Rats were bilaterally adrenoovariectomized 15 days after the appearance of the first palpable mammary tumors and were treated with either prolactin or GH beginning the next morning. Marked stimulation of incidence and growth of mammary tumor and of normal mammary gland growth followed subcutaneous injections of 1.25 or 2.5 mg prolactin twice daily for 20 days. GH had no effects on mammary tumor, whereas it accelerated the growth of normal mammary gland and increased the body weight. The administration of 2.5 mg prolactin twice daily for 10 days, beginning 20 days after adreno-ovariectomy, raised the number and size of regressed mammary tumors to the pre-operative levels, while the half dose of prolactin had no effects. These results indicate that prolactin is the principal hormone responsible for the growth of DMBA-induced mammary tumor of the rat, whereas GH has only a minimal role in the growth of the tumor. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Neuroblastoma is the most common and deadly solid tumor of childhood. Cyclooxygenase-2 is expressed in clinical neuroblastoma tumors and cell lines and inhibitors of this enzyme induce apoptosis in human neuroblastoma cells in vitro and in neuroblastoma xenografts in vivo. We hypothesized that the cyclooxygenase-2-specific inhibitor celecoxib could enhance the cytotoxic effect of chemotherapeutic drugs currently used in neuroblastoma treatment. Furthermore, we investigated if prophylactic treatment with celecoxib could prevent neuroblastoma tumor development in vivo. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Neuroblastoma cell cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic drugs in combination with celecoxib was examined. In vivo, athymic rats carrying established SH-SY5Y xenografts were treated with celecoxib in combination with irinotecan, doxorubicin or etoposide, or with either drug alone. For prevention studies, rats received celecoxib in the diet, 250 to 2,500 ppm, from the time of tumor cell injection. RESULTS: Celecoxib induced a synergistic or an additive cytotoxic effect in combination with doxorubicin, etoposide, irinotecan or vincristine in vitro. In vivo, treatment with celecoxib in combination with irinotecan or doxorubicin induced a significant growth inhibition of established neuroblastoma tumors. Rats receiving celecoxib in the diet showed a distinct dose-dependent delay in tumor development compared with untreated rats. Plasma levels of celecoxib were comparable with levels obtainable in humans. CONCLUSIONS: Celecoxib potentiates the antitumor effect of chemotherapeutic drugs currently used in neuroblastoma treatment, which argues for clinical trials combining these drugs. Celecoxib could also be a potential drug for treatment of minimal residual disease. 相似文献

The selective cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor, celecoxib, alone and in combination with radiation was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Murine mammary tumor line (MCa-35) and human lung carcinoma line (A549) have high and low basal levels of COX-2 protein, respectively. Treatment of both tumor cells with celecoxib alone resulted in a dose- and time-dependent reduction of cell number (clonogenic cell death) and tumor cell growth rate in vitro; however, inhibition of tumor cell growth by celecoxib was not correlated with the reduction of COX-2 protein in tumor cells. Although both tumor cell types had similar DNA damage after celecoxib treatment, significant induction of tumor cell apoptosis was only observed in MCa-35. Celecoxib-mediated radiation sensitization also occurred in MCa-35 cells determined by clonogenic assay, in part due to a G2/M arrest at 8 to 24 hours after treatment. The tumor growth inhibitory effects of celecoxib were also studied in vivo. It was found that celecoxib inhibited both tumor growth after intragastric administration of celecoxib (5 daily doses of 50 mg/kg). Combined with a single 30-Gy dose of radiation, celecoxib resulted in additive effects on A549 tumors. Celecoxib-treated A549 tumors had marginal reduction of total and perfused blood vessels compared with untreated controls. Reduction of tumor angiogenic cytokine and growth factor mRNA was associated with decreased perfused vessels. Finally, reduction of vascular endothelial growth factor protein after celecoxib was also observed in both tumor lines by Western blot. Our results indicate that the selective inhibition of COX-2 combined with radiation has potential application in radiotherapy, and celecoxib-mediated antitumor effects may act through different mechanisms including direct inhibition of tumor cell proliferation, alteration of tumor cell cycle, and antiangiogenesis. 相似文献

Metabolism of retinol and retinoic acid in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas in rats
This study was conducted to examine the in vivo uptake and metabolism of natural retinoids by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas. In this study, endogenous retinol and retinyl esters were present in normal mammary epithelial cells, but were undetectable in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas in rats as determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography. No differences were found in plasma levels of retinol, in liver retinyl esters, or total content of vitamin A between tumor-bearing and control animals. Administered labeled retinol was taken up and esterified by normal mammary epithelial cells. Tumor-bearing rats were given injections i.p. of either [3H]retinol or [3H]retinoic acid. Radioactivity increased progressively with time in liver and other tissues except in breast tumor, where the uptake fluctuated over the 8 days after the injection of [3H]retinol; in mammary tumors practically no metabolism of [3H]retinol occurred, while in other tissues extensive esterification was detectable. In contrast, in animals given injections of [3H]retinoic acid, the uptake and metabolism of the label in the breast tumors paralleled with those found in other tissues. Neither the activity of acyl coenzyme A:retinol acyl transferase nor the activity of retinyl ester hydrolase was altered in the mammary tumor compared to the normal mammary gland. On the other hand, a significant decrease in the retinal oxidase activity was found in tumor tissue compared to normal mammary tissue. Since no esterification of [3H]retinol occurred in vivo despite the presence of acyl coenzyme A:retinol acyl transferase activity, it is possible that a specific defect in the cellular uptake of retinol may exist in N-methyl-N-nitrosourea-induced mammary carcinomas. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Activation of COX-2 and inhibition of PPARgamma have been observed in human and animal models of breast cancer. Both inhibition of COX-2 and activation of PPARgamma can inhibit proliferation of breast cancer cells in vitro. Here, we examine the effects of the COX-2 inhibitor celecoxib and the PPARgamma agonist N-(9-fluorenyl-methyloxycarbonyl)-l-leucine (F-L-Leu) on mouse breast tumor cells in vitro and in vivo. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We created and characterized a mouse mammary adenocarcinoma cell (MMAC-1) line from C3 (1)-SV40 tumor antigen mice to study COX-2 and PPARgamma expression and response to celecoxib and F-L-Leu in vitro. To study the in vivo effects, C3 (1)-SV40 tumor antigen mice were given either control diet or diets containing three different concentrations of celecoxib and F-L-Leu as well as a combination of both agents. Mice were then followed for tumor formation up to 1 year. RESULTS: MMAC-1 cells express both COX-2 and PPARgamma mRNA and exhibited cooperative growth inhibition with a combination of celecoxib and F-L-Leu. In mice, the median age of death due to mammary tumors was significantly delayed in celecoxib-treated animals at all three concentrations but was not significantly affected by F-L-Leu treatment alone. A combination of celecoxib and F-L-Leu was significantly more effective than celecoxib alone. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that a combination of a COX-2 inhibitor and PPARgamma agonist can delay breast cancer in a mouse model and suggest that these agents should be studied in the context of human populations with high breast cancer risk. 相似文献
