چکیده مقاله:

 ABSTRACT Background: The aims of this study were to assay the activity of adenosine deaminase (ADA) in estrogen receptor positive (MCF-7) and negative (MDA-MB468) breast cancer cell lines. Methods: MDA-MB468 and MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines were cultured in complete medium, striped serum with and without 0.0 1~-LM diethylstilbestrol (DES), complete medium in the presence and absence of 111M tamoxifen for 20 hr. Adenosine deaminase activity was determined using the colorimetric method described by Guisti and Galanti. Results: It was found that the activity of enzyme in estrogen receptor positive (ER+) cell line (MCF-7) was significantly higher than that of estrogen receptor negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB468). ADA activity in MCF-7 cells cultured in the presence of tamoxifen or charcoal-striped serum was significantly lower than that of control. Furthermore addition of diethylstilbestrol (DES) to the striped serum increased the value of ADA activity to that of control. Unlike MCF-7 cells, the activity of ADA in MDA-MB468 cells remained unchanged upon treatment with tamoxifen or striped serum. Conclusion: These findings suggest estrogen responsiveness of ADA expression in MCF-7 cells.

Characterization and quantitation of antiestrogen binding sites in estrogen receptor-positive and -negative human breast cancer cell lines.

Antiestrogens are useful in the treatment of endocrine-respon sive breast cancers in humans. In an attempt to understand the mechanisms underlying their estrogen antagonism and antitumor character, we have examined the interaction of antiestrogens with three human breast cancer cell lines that differ markedly in their estrogen receptor content and in their sensitivity to growth suppression by a...

Profiling of gene expression regulated by 17β-estradiol and tamoxifen in estrogen receptor-positive and estrogen receptor-negative human breast cancer cell lines

One area of great importance in breast cancer (BC) research is the study of gene expression regulated by both estrogenic and antiestrogenic agents. Although many studies have been performed in this area, most of them have only addressed the effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) and tamoxifen (TAM) on MCF7 cells. This study aimed to determine the effect of low doses of E2 and TAM on the expression level...

RB in breast cancer: differential effects in estrogen receptor-positive and estrogen receptor-negative disease.

The RB pathway is one of the best-studied and most frequently altered pathways leading to loss of proliferative control in cancer. it can be disrupted by a variety of means including, but not limited to, epigenetic silencing, allelic loss or mutation of RB1. in some cancers including breast cancer, amplification of the CCND1 gene or overexpression of cyclin D1 is commonly observed.1 in others, ...

CASPASE DEPENDENT APOPTOSIS INDUCED BY CLADRIBINE IN THE ESTROGEN RECEPTOR NEGATIVE BREAST CANCER CELL LINE, MDA-MB468

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the cytotoxicity/apoptotic effect of 2-chloro-2′-deoxyadenosine, cladribine, (2-CdA) in the human breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB468 (estrogen receptor negative, ER−). MTT [3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H tetrazolium bromide] assay, annexin V-Fluorescein/PI and Hoechst 33258 staining were used to detect cytotoxicity and cell apopto...

Characterization of macrophage - cancer cell crosstalk in estrogen receptor positive and triple-negative breast cancer

Tumor heterogeneity may broadly influence the activation of tumor-associated macrophages. We aimed to dissect how breast cancer cells of different molecular characteristics contribute to macrophage phenotype and function. Therefore, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing of human monocytes that were co-cultured with estrogen receptor positive (ER(+)) or triple-negative (TNBC) breast cancer...
