RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Thiazolidine-2,4-dione ring system is used as a pharmacophore to build various heterocyclic compounds aimed to interact with biological targets. In the present study, benzylidene-2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives (compounds 2-5) were synthesized and screened against cancer cell lines and the genotoxicity and cytotoxicity of the most active compound (5) was investigated on normal and lung cancer cell line. METHODS: For in vitro cytotoxic screening, the MTT assay was used for HL60 and K562 (leukemia), MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma), HT29 (colon adenocarcinoma), HEp-2 (cervix carcinoma) and NCI-H292 (lung carcinoma) tumor cell lines and Alamar-blue assay was used for non-tumor cells (PBMC, human peripheral blood mononuclear cells) were used. Cell morphology was visualized after Giemsa-May-Grunwald staining. DNA content, phosphatidylserine externalization and mitochondrial depolarization were measured by flow cytometry. Genotoxicity was assessed by Comet assay. RESULTS: 5-(2-Bromo-5-methoxybenzylidene)-thiazolidine-2,4-dione (5) presented the most potent cytotoxicity, especially against NCI-H292 lung cancer cell line, with IC50 value of 1.26µg/mL after 72h incubation. None of the compounds were cytotoxic to PBMC. After 48h incubation, externalization of phosphatidylserine, mitochondrial depolarization, internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and morphological alterations consistent with apoptosis were observed in NCI-H292 cells treated with compound (5). In addition, compound (5) also induced genotoxicity in NCI-H292 cells (2.8-fold increase in damage index compared to the negative control), but not in PBMC. CONCLUSION: Compound 5 presented selective cytotoxic and genotoxic activity against pulmonary carcinoma (NCI-H292 cells).

RESUMO

This study aimed to evaluate the mechanism associated with cytotoxic activity displayed by the drug 5-fluorouracil incorporated in Cu-BTC MOF and its slow delivery from the Cu-BTC MOF. Structural characterization encompasses elemental analysis (CHNS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTG), Fournier transform infrared (FIT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) was performed to verify the process of association between the drug 5-FU and Cu-BTC MOF. Flow cytometry was done to indicate that apoptosis is the mechanism responsible for the cell death. The release profile of the drug 5-FU from Cu-BTC MOF for 48 hours was obeisant. Also, the anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated by the peritonitis testing and the production of nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines were measured. The chemical characterization of the material indicated the presence of drug associated with the coordination network in a proportion of 0.82 g 5-FU per 1.0 g of Cu-BTC MOF. The cytotoxic tests were carried out against four cell lines: NCI-H292, MCF-7, HT29 and HL60. The Cu-BTC MOF associated drug was extremely cytotoxic against the human breast cancer adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) cell line and against human acute promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL60), cancer cells were killed by apoptosis mechanisms. The drug demonstrated a slow release profile where 82% of the drug was released in 48 hours. The results indicated that the drug incorporated in Cu-BTC MOF decreased significantly the number of leukocytes in the peritoneal cavity of rodents as well as reduced levels of cytokines and nitric oxide production.
