Abstract:
In this study, we reported novel anti-cancer drug candidate, JNC-1043{(5S)-5-(4-Benzyloxy-3,5-dimethoxy-phenyl)-5,9-dihydro-8H-furo[3',4':6,7] naphtho[2,3-d] [1,3]dioxol-6-one}, synthesized from β-Apopicropodophyllin. Firstly, we analyzed anti-cancer effect of JNC-1043. We performed MTT assay to detect IC50 values on several cancer cells - breast, lung, pancreatic, blood, gastric, colorectal cancers. In these experiments, 0.1~1 μM IC50 values of JNC-1043 were calculated, and JNC-1043 treatments induced activation of caspase-3 and -8. Additionally, effective values of pharmacokinetic parameters in male rats and 2 weeks Dose Rate Finding (DRF) of JNC-1043 also detected. This result showed JNC-1043 is a promising anti-cancer candidate. Next, we tested whether radiosensitizing effect of JNC-1043. Each IC50 values of DLD-1 and HCT116 cell lines were calculated as 0.157, 0.1145, respectively. Cell counting assays were performed and then showed combination of JNC-1043 and γ-ionizing radiation (IR) enhanced cell death. JNC-1043 only- or IR only-treatment induced cell death by 50~60%, respectively, while combination of JNC-1043 and IR increased more 20~30% cell death than those of JNC-1043 only- or IR only-treatment in both cell lines. Clonogenic assay also performed, and then dose enhancement ratios (DER) of DLD-1 and HCT116 were calculated as 1.40, 1.53, respectively. Apoptosis also was detected with Annexin V-Propidium iodide assay. Combination of JNC-1043 and IR increased apoptosis more 30~40% than those of JNC-1043 only- or IR only-treatment. DCFDA-based assay also were performed to indicate ROS production was enhanced in combination of JNC-1043 and IR. In vivo xenograft experiment, combination of JNC-1043 and IR reduced tumor sizes less 50% and increased apoptosis more 30~40% than those of JNC-1043 only- or IR only-treatment. These results implied anti-cancer and radiosensitizing effect of JNC-1043 resulted from promotion of apoptosis via enhancement of ROS production.
