Popis: Objective: Cervical cancer is one of the most common and deadly cancers among women worldwide and is associated with persistent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Human papilloma virus (HPV) expressing E6 and E7 oncoproteins involved in carcinogenesis through their interactions with the p53 and pRB pathways, respectively. Therefore, non-toxic agents that have potential to inhibit the expression of E6 and E7 oncoproteins and their regulated oncogenic signaling pathways could be used in the management of cervical cancer. Microtubule targeting agents including paclitaxel, colchicine and vinca alkaloids are widely used in the treatment of various cancers but most of these agents have toxic side effects and develop chemoresistance. Herein, we investigated the potential anti-cancer effects of a novel tubulin targeting agent (ABI-231) in in vitro and in vivo model systems. Method: ABI-231 ((2-(1H-indol-3-yl)-1H-imidazol-4-yl)(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl))- methanone was synthesized in our home institution. Human cervical cancer cells (CaSki and SiHa) were used as in vitro model system. To determine the effect of ABI-231 on cell proliferation, migration and invasion, we performed MTS and wound healing assays. Effect of ABI-231 on the expression of HPV E6/E7 was determined by Western blot, qRT-PCR, and confocal microscopy. Xenograft study was performed to determine the effect of ABI-231 on cervical tumor growth. Results: ABI-231 treatment significantly (P Conclusions: Taken together, our results demonstrate the potential anti-cancer efficacy of ABI-231 in in vivo and in vivo. ABI-231 can be explored as a potent therapeutic agent for the treatment of cervical cancer. Citation Format: Vivek K. Kashyap, Bilal B. Hafeez, Qinghai Wang, Neeraj Chauhan, Prashanth K.
