Potentialization of N-a-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) cytotoxic activity by 2-(1-adamantylamino)-6-methylpyridine (AdAMP) in human ovarian cancer cells.
Ginekologia Polska 2017
OBJECTIVES: TNF is one of the key cytokines involved in cancer development. TNF signaling can result in both stimulating and inhibitory signals that can result in opposite biological effects in cancerogenesis. 2-(1-adamantylamino)-6-methylpyridine (AdAMP) enhances TNF secretion whereas N-a-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) is a NF-κB inhibitor potentially stimulating proapoptotic TNF signals. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of TPCK in combination with AdAMP on human ovarian cells.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: CAOV-1 human ovarian cell line was incubated with TPCK and AdAMP for 24 hours. The cytotoxic effect was evaluated in a crystal violet assay. A monoclonal antibody against TNF, Infliximab, was added to examine the possible mechanism of interactions.
RESULTS: Depending on concentration, AdAMP potentialized cytotoxic activity of TPCK or had a synergistic effect with TPCK. Infliximab did not reverse cytotoxicity of AdAMP and TPCK and in some cytotoxic and non-cytotoxic concentrations even enhanced their cytotoxicity.
CONCLUSIONS: AdAMP and TPCK cytotoxicity seems to be dependent on TNF signaling, however, the exact mechanism of interactions remains unclear.
