Popis: Our work aimed at identifying the antitumoral potential of new nitric oxide (NO)-releasing non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) derivatives on human prostate and bladder carcinoma cell lines. Among all molecules tested, two sulindac derivatives, NCX 1102 ((Z)-5-fluoro-2-methyl-1-[[4-(methylsulfinyl)phenyl] methylene]-1H-indene-3-acetic acid 4-(nitrooxy)butyl ester) and NCX 1105 ((Z)-5-fluoro-2-methyl-1-[[4-(methylsulfinyl)phenyl] methylene]-1H-indene-3-acetic acid 6-(nitrooxymethyl)-2-methylpyrydyl ester hydrochloride), were the most cytotoxic compounds. In contrast to its parent molecule sulindac, cell cycle analysis showed that NCX 1102 led to cell accumulation in the G2-M transition stage in all cell lines, and induced apoptosis in five out of the six cell lines. Thus, NO-NSAIDs may be useful for the elaboration of new therapeutic strategies in the management of bladder and prostate cancer.
