Comparative chemosensitivity of circulating human prostate cancer cells and primary cancer cells.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The chemosensitivity of circulating PC-3 human prostate cancer cells, isolated from nude mice orthotopically implanted with PC-3, was compared to that of the parental PC-3 cells. PC-3 and circulating PC-3, both labeled with green fluorescent protein (GFP), were seeded in 96-well plates. The MTT assay was then performed at 24, 48, and 72 hours, comparing control cultures to cultures treated with cisplatin at 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 μm/ml, and docetaxel at 10, 20, 25 and 50 μm/ml at each time point. The circulating tumor cells (CTCs) exhibited a significantly increased sensitivity to both cisplatin and docetaxel when compared to PC-3 parental cells, with docetaxel having the greater efficacy. The future goal, based on these studies, is the culture of CTCs from cancer patients' peripheral blood for chemosensitivity testing, for improved individualized therapy.

Among them HPV-16 and HPV-18 have shown further association with cancer. Regarding the pr...
متن کاملRadiosensitizing effects of Sestrin2 in PC3 prostate cancer cells
Objective(s): The stress-responsive genes of Sestrin family are recognized as new tumor suppressor genes in breast carcinoma, however, the function of Sestrin family in human prostate cancer is not clear. Ionizing radiation (IR) is known to induce Sestrin gene expression in breast cancer cells. However, the response of Sestrin to IR has not been reported in PC3 prostate cancer cells. Materials ...

The insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) plays an essential role in the establishment and maintenance of transformed phenotype. Interference with the IGF-IR pathway by antisense causes reversal of the transformed phenotype in many rodent and human tumor cell lines. We stably transfected the PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line with an IGF-IR antisense RNA expression plasmid. The ...

Halophilic archaea are known as the novel producers of natural products and their supernatant metabolites could have cytotoxic effects on cancer cells. In the present study, we screened the anticancer potential of supernatant metabolites from eight native haloarchaeal strains obtained from a culture collection in Iran. Five human cancer cell lines including breast, lung, prostate and also human...
