| Popis: | Background. Mitochondria can influence cancer cells both indirectly via reactive oxygen species mediation and directly through mitochondrial biogenesis. Energy production in mitochondria is crucial as it facilitates the synthesis of essential molecules needed for cellular biosynthesis, growth, and proliferation. The development of new anticancer drugs that target the energy metabolism of tumor cells shows promise in cancer treatment. Our study aimed to investigate how the thiazole derivative N-(5-benzyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-3,5-dimethyl-1-benzofuran-2-carboxamide (BF1), the polymeric nanoparticles based on the polyethylene glycol (PEG-PN, Th5), and their complex with BF1 (Th6) affect respiration and mitochondrial membrane potential in murine NK/Ly tumor cells. Materials and Methods. The study was performed on white wild-type male mice with grafted NK/Ly lymphoma. The test substances were added to the cell suspension at a final concentration of 10 μM and incubated for 15 min at 37 °C. Oxygen uptake rates in NK/Ly cells were measured using a polarographic method with Clark electrode. Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were assessed using the tetramethylrhodamine methyl ester fluorescence dye. The fluorescence intensity was evaluated using the ImageJ computer program. Results. After incubating NK/Ly cells with BF1 (10 µM), Th5, or the BF1 + PEG-PN complex (Th6) for 15 min, no changes were observed in glucose-fueled basal respiration. However, the Th6 complex significantly activated FCCP-stimulated respiratory processes in NK/Ly lymphoma cells. Fluorescent microscopy data indicated that BF1 or Th5 alone did not affect mitochondrial membrane potential values. However, the Th6 complex significantly decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, suggesting a reduction in NK/Ly cell viability. Conclusions The investigated complex of thiazole derivative BF1 with PEG-based polymeric nanoparticles may realize its cytotoxic effect by depolarization of mitochondrial membrane in NK/Ly lymphoma cells. |
