Abstract |
Introduction |
Heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) chaperones are indispensable to lung cancer cells for their survival and proliferation. In this study we evaluated and compared anticancer potential of methylene blue (MB) as an Hsp70 inhibitor, novobiocin (NB) a well-known Hsp90 inhibitor and their combination.
Methods |
In vitro evaluation was done by cell viability assays, fluorescent staining, and flow cytometry analysis using A549 non-small cell lung cancer cells. In vivo anticancer activity was investigated by evaluating oxidative stress, tumor biomarkers, weight, lung microarchitecture, and Hsp70 and Hsp90 inhibitions via immunoblotting in benzo[a]pyrene induced lung carcinogenesis mice model.
Results |
Using A549 NSCLC cells, we found MB demonstrated lower cell viability versus NB. Together, MB + NB resulted in further decrease in cell viability. SRB assay revealed significantly superior and similar potency for MB versus NB and MB + NB (1:1) versus MB, respectively. Fluorescent staining and flow cytometry analysis displayed early apoptosis by MB (11.4%); early and late apoptosis by MB + NB (13.8%). In vivo, MB significantly inhibited Hsp70. Furthermore, MB significantly alleviated tumor biomarkers (ADA and LDH) and improved lung histopathological features more than NB. Additionally, MB significantly improved SOD, not more than MB + NB or NB and improved LPO.
Conclusion |
MB demonstrated potent anticancer activity in vitro and in vivo via inhibition of Hsp70 in benzo[a]pyrene induced lung carcinogenesis in mice.
