| Popis: | Human 2008 ovarian carcinoma cells and the C13 CDDP-resistant subline and human MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells and the MCF-7/CDDP CDDP-resistant subline were exposed to L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (50 microM) for 48 h prior to and during exposure for 1 h to the antitumor platinum complexes, cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), carboplatin or D,L-tetraplatin and/or to etanidazole (1 mM) for 2 h prior to and during exposure for 1 to the antitumor platinum complexes. These modulators alone did not significantly alter the cytotoxicity of CDDP toward either parental line. A twofold enhancement in cytotoxicity was observed with carboplatin in the 2008 cells and with D,L-tetraplatin in both parental lines with the single modulators. The modulator combination (buthionine sulfoximine/etanidazole) was very effective along with D,L-tetraplatin in both the MCF-7 parent and MCF-7/CDDP cell lines where at the higher platinum complex concentrations there was 1.5 to 3 logs increased killing of cells by the drug plus the modulators compared with the drug alone. Similarly, when C13 cells were exposed to CDDP (100 microM) or D,L-tetraplatin (100 microM) along with buthionine sulfoximine and etanidazole there was a 2-log increase in cell killing compared with exposure to the platinum complex alone. Treatment of each of the four cell lines with buthionine sulfoximine decreased both the non-protein and total sulfhydryl content of the cells. Treatment with the combination of modulators did not produce a further decrease in cellular sulfhydryl content compared with buthionine sulfoximine alone. The total sulfhydryl content in MCF-7 cells and 2008 cells exposed to buthionine sulfoximine and etanidazole was 58% and 31% of normal and the total sulfhydryl content of MCF-7/CDDP cells and C13 cells treated the same way was 54% and 23% of normal, respectively. DNA alkaline elution was used to assess the impact of exposure to the modulators, buthionine sulfoximine and etanidazole, alone and in combination on the cross linking of DNA by the antitumor platinum complexes in the MCF-7 and MCF-7/CDDP cell lines. Overall, the increases in DNA cross linking factors were greater in the MCF-7 cells than in the MCF-7/CDDP cells. These results indicate a possible clinical potential for this modulator combination. |
