Popis: | Cancer is related to the cellular proliferative state. Increase in cell-cycle regulatory function augments cellular folate pool. This pathway is therapeutically targeted. A number of drugs influences this metabolism, that is, folic acid, folinic acid, nolatrexed, and methotrexate. Our previous study showed methotrexate influences on rat/human sulfotransferases. Present study explains the effect of nolatrexed (widely used in different cancers) and some micronutrients on the expressions of rat/human sulfotransferases. Female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with nolatrexed (01-100 mg/kg) and rats of both sexes were treated to folic acid (100, 200, or 400 mg/kg) for 2-weeks and their aryl sulfotransferase-IV (AST-IV; β-napthol sulfation) and sulfotransferase (STa; DHEA sulfation) activities, protein expression (western blot) and mRNA expression (RT-PCR) were tested. In human-cultured hepatocarcinoma (HepG2) cells nolatrexed (1 nM-1.2 mM) or folinic acid (10 nM-10 μM) were applied for 10 days. Folic acid (0-10 μM) was treated to HepG2 cells. PPST (phenol catalyzing), MPST (dopamine and monoamine), DHEAST (dehydroepiandrosterone and DHEA), and EST (estradiol sulfating) protein expressions (western-blot) were tested in HepG2 cells. Present results suggest that nolatrexed significantly increased sulfotransferases expressions in rat (protein, STa, F = 4.87, P |
