Annotation: To analyze the survival of patients with breast cancer (BC) depending on age, molecular subtype of the tumor and the presence of metabolic syndrome. Patients and Methods: We have analyzed the results of examination and treatment of 202 patients with BC of stages I–III. The patients were distributed by age into 2 groups. The group 1 included 86 elderly patients (from 65 to 84 years old), the group 2 — 116 younger patients (from 32 to 64 years). An overall 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates of the treated patients were assessed. The significance of factors influencing the overall survival (OS) of patients with BC was determined using the methods of statistical analysis. Results: Molecular subtype of BC significantly affects survival rates: in a case of a luminal B subtype the 5-year OS was 71.6 vs 80% (p 0.05) in groups 1 and 2, respectively while in a case of a basal-like subtype it was 60.2% and 71.6% (p 0.05). The presence of metabolic syndrome significantly reduced the 5-year OS (up to 70.7% and 80.6%, p 0.05 in groups 1 and 2, respectively). Conclusion: The OS is lower in elderly patients with BC compared with younger patients, especially in those who suffer from metabolic syndrome. Key Words: breast cancer, elderly age, metabolic syndrome, receptor status, 1-, 3-, 5-year overall survival

Annotation: To investigate the influence of exogenous lactoferrin (LF) on tumor growth, energy and lipid metabolism of Walker-256 carcinosarcoma and to assess genotoxic effects of LF. Materials and Methods: The study was performed on Walker-256 tumor-bearing rats. Total lipids and phospholipids were determined by thin-layer chromatography. Comet assay was used to investigate the genotoxic effects of LF. Results: Daily i.p. administrations of exogenous LF at concentrations of 1 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg starting from the 4th day after tumor transplantation suppressed growth of Walker-256 carcinosarcoma by almost 44%. After treatment with recombinant LF in both doses, the phospholipid composition of Walker-256 carcinosarcoma cells was changed (3-fold increase of phosphatidylethanolamine, 3.4-fold increase of phosphatidylcholine, and 1.8-fold increase of sphingomyelin, while the cardiolipin content decreased by 67%. Exogenous LF was not genotoxic for bone marrow cells (as assessed by the ratio of PCE/NCE, number of micronuclei) and peripheral blood lymphocytes (percentage of DNA in the tail of a comet) in Walker-256 carcinosarcoma-bearing rats. Conclusion: Exogenous LF caused the inhibition of Walker-256 carcinosarcoma growth and a decrease in the microviscosity of plasma cell membranes, and exerted no genotoxicity toward bone marrow cells and peripheral blood of experimental animals. Key Words: lactoferrin, breast cancer, Walker-256 carcinosarcoma, phospholipid content, genotoxicity

АРТЕМИЗИНИНЫ -- ARTEMISININS
ЛЕКАРСТВЕННАЯ УСТОЙЧИВОСТЬ -- DRUG RESISTANCE
Annotation: To explore effects of Artemisinin on a series of breast cancer cells with different sensitivity to typical cytotoxic drugs (doxorubicin — Dox; cisplatin — DDP) and to investigate possible artemisinin-induced modification of the mechanisms of drug resistance. Materials and Methods: The study was performed on wild-type breast cancer MCF-7 cell line (MCF-7/S) and its two sublines MCF-7/Dox and MCF-7/DDP resistant to Dox and DDP, respectively. The cells were treated with artemisinin and iron-containing magnetic fluid. The latter was added to modulate iron levels in the cells and explore its role in artemisinin-induced effects. The MTT assay was used to monitor cell viability, whereas changes of expression of selected proteins participating in regulation of cellular iron homeostasis were estimated using immunocytochemical methods. Finally, relative expression levels of miRNA-200b, -320a, and -34a were examined by using qRT-PCR. Results: Artemisinin affects mechanisms of the resistance of breast cancer cells towards both Dox and DDP at sub-toxic doses. The former drug induces changes of expression of iron-regulating proteins via different mechanisms, including epigenetic regulation. Particularly, the disturbances in ferritin heavy chain 1, lactoferrin, hepcidin (decrease) and ferroportin (increase) expression (р ≤ 0.05) were established. The most enhanced increase of miRNA expression under artemisinin influence were found for miRNA-200b in MCF-7/DDP cells (7.1 ± 0.98 fold change), miRNA-320a in MCF-7/Dox cells (2.9 ± 0.45 fold change) and miRNA-34a (1.7 ± 0.15 fold change) in MCF-7/S cells. It was observed that the sensitivity to artemisinin can be influenced by changing iron levels in cells. Conclusions: Artemisinin can modify iron metabolism of breast cancer cells by its cytotoxic effect, but also by inducing changes in expression of iron-regulating proteins and microRNAs (miRNAs), involved in their regulation. This modification affects the mechanisms that are implicated in drug-resistance, that makes artemisinin a perspective modulator of cell sensitivity towards chemotherapeutic agents in cancer treatment

Annotation: To search for additional molecular-biological markers of cancer stem cell (CSC) involved in the development of intra-tumor heterogeneity for the detection of features of the breast cancer (BC) pathogenesis. Materials and methods: Expression of estrogen receptors (ER), progesterone receptors (PR), Her2/neu, E- and N-cadherin, CD24, CD44, Bcl-2, Bax, Slug, P-gp, glutathione-S-transferase (GST) and metallothionein in cell lines was determined by the immunocytochemical method. Expression of ER, PR, Her2/neu, CD24 and CD44 in the surgical material of BC patients were determined by the immunohistochemical method. The levels of the miRNA were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results: Cells of high-grade malignancy (HGM), MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 are characterized by high expression of stem cell markers compared to the cells of low-grade malignancy (LGM), T47D and MCF-7: CD44 levels in T47D and MCF-7 cells were in range of 72-79 points, which is significantly lower than in HGM cells (p 0.05). Also, HGM cells with the properties of CSC were characterized by high expression of antiapoptotic proteins, the transcription factor Slug, and low levels of proapoptotic protein Bax (p 0.05) compared to LGM cells. In cells with CSC characteristics an increased expression of transferrin and its receptor, ferritin, fentorin and hepcidin was revealed indicating activation of the endogenous iron metabolism. The characteristic feature of HGM cells with CSC phenotype were the increased levels of oncogenic miR-221, -155 and -10b by 60%, 92% and 78%, respectively, and decreased levels of oncosuppressive miR-29b, -34a and -200b by 8.4 ± 0.3, 4.6 ± 0.2, and 3.4 ± 0.6 times compared to MCF-7 line cells. It has been established that the development of resistance to cytostatics is accompanied by increased aggressiveness of tumor cells, loss of expression of hormonal receptors and acquiring of stem phenotype. In particular, increased expression of P-gp was observed in BC cells during the development of resistance to doxorubicin, of GST during the development of resistance to cisplatin along with increased CD44 expression (p 0.05). We have revealed the relation between the presence of cells with the CSC phenotype (CD44+CD24-/low) and clinical and pathological characteristics of BC patients, their survival and BC sensitivity to neoadjuvant therapy (p > 0.05). Conclusions: The dependence between the expression of CSC markers and the degree of malignancy of tumor cells, development of resistance to cytostatics in vitro was established as well as the predictive value of the detection of the CSC for the individual prognosis of the BC course and sensitivity of the tumors to the treatment

Annotation: To identify the association of serum miRNAs with neoadjuvant polychemotherapy response in patients with breast cancer of luminal A and B subtypes. Materials and Methods: We analyzed the expression levels of circulating miR-21, -155, -182, -373, -199a, -205, -375 in serum of 182 breast cancer patients using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Each case was characterized by TMN criteria using morphological and immunohistochemical analyses. Results: Serum levels of miR-205 and -375 are associated with the response of luminal A tumors and miR-205 and -21 with the response of luminal B tumors to neoadjuvant polychemotherapy in fluorouracil + doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide regimens. In addition, we found correlation of miR-155, -182, -199a, -375 with 3-year relapse-free survival of patients. Based on the obtained data, we developed innovative prognostic and predictive panels to assess the drug sensitivity of tumors and lower the risk of breast cancer recurrence, which would significantly improve the treatment outcomes and the quality of life of patients. Conclusions: Serum levels of miR-155, -182, -199a, -205, -375 can be used as predictive and prognostic panel for monitoring BC course in Ukrainian population

Annotation: In order to develop fundamentally new technologies for non-invasive and safer diagnosis of cancer, we aimed to detect non-contact magnetic signals from a malignant tumor in animals treated or not-treated with the ferromagnetic nanocomposite Ferroplat. Materials and Methods: Guerin’s carcinoma was used as a model of tumor growth. The biomagnetism of the tumor was evaluated in the dynamics of its growth. Ten days after tumor transplantation, Ferroplat was administered intravenously to half of the animals with the tumor and to half of the control animals. The magnitude of the magnetic signals was determined 1 h and every two days after administration of the nanocomposite using a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device magnetometer of the original design. Results: We have found that the magnetic signals coming from the tumor are significantly higher compared to control tumor-free animals. Intravenous administration of a ferromagnetic nanocomposite (Ferroplat: Fe3O4 + cisplatinum) led to a significant increase of the magnetic signal, especially in the tumor tissue, and inhibition of Guerin’s carcinoma growth. Ferromagnetic nanoparticles (32.7 nm) are retained in malignant cells for a longer time than in normal ones. Conclusion: Tumor cells accumulate iron nanoparticles more intensively than normal ones. Nanocomposite Ferroplat can be used for a targeted delivery of cisplatin to malignant cells

Can SARS-CJV-2 change individual radiation sensitivity of the patients recovered from COVID-19? (experimental and theoretical backlground) / V. F. Chekhun, E. A. Domina // Experimental Oncology. - 2021. - Том 43, N 3. - P277-280

КОРОНАВИРУСНЫЕ ИНФЕКЦИИ -- CORONAVIRUS INFECTIONS (осложнения)
РАДИОТОЛЕРАНТНОСТЬ -- RADIATION TOLERANCE
Annotation: R.E. Kavetsky Institute of Experimental Pathology, Oncology and Radiobiology of the National Academy of Science of Ukraine has been studying the mechanisms and specificities of individual radiation sensitivity (IRS) formation in professionals who work in the field of ionizing radiation, cancer patients and representatives of other population groups. Our data based on the use of G2-test in in vitro irradiated blood lymphocytes in late G2-period of cell cycle indicated an increased carcinogenic risk in professionals with high IRS. We suggest that the COVID-19 pandemic could make significant adjustments in the formation of IRS in professionals who have survived the disease and continue to work with ionizing radiation (IR). Increased systemic inflammatory activity, which persists for a long time in COVID-19 patients, in combination with low-dose range irradiation (professionals who continue to work with IR) and with local irradiation in the high-dose range (radiation therapy for cancer patients) may affect IRS. Repeated determination of IRS in professionals who have had COVID-19 infection, using chromosomal G2-radiation sensitivity assay will answer the question: can SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus affect the IRS? The proposed hypothesis of the radiosensitivity evolution needs further experimental validation using a set of radiobiological indices to clarify the mechanism of IRS formation following COVID-19 infection. The detected changes (increase) of human IRS after COVID-19 must be taken into account for personalized planning of radiotherapy of COVID-19 cancer patients

Annotation: Complex formation of K₂[PdCl₄] with 1-phenyl-1-hydroxymethylene bisphosphonic acid (PhHMBP, H₄L) has been studied by pH potentiometry, electron and NMR spectroscopy. It was found that in aqueous solution with physiological concentration of chlorine anions (0.15 mol/l KCl), anionic complexes of the equimolar compositions [PdHLCl₂]^3- (lgβ = 24.51 (0.3)) and [PdLCl₂]^4-(lgβ = 20.74 (0.02)) are formed. In the first coordination sphere palladium was surrounded by two oxygen atoms of two phosphonic groups of the bidentately coordinated ligand with closure of six-membered [O, O] ring, and two chlorine anions. The formation of palladium(II) equimolar complexes with PhHMBP and bidentate coordination of the ligand to the central metal cation was confirmed by³¹P NMR spectroscopy. Cytotoxic activity (IC₅₀ based on metal content) of the synthesized Pd(II) complexes with PhHMBP against human MG-63 osteosarcoma and MCF-7 mammary tumor cells was compared with cisplatin on in vitro models. It was established that cytotoxic activity of the Pd complexes was lower than that of cisplatin. The acute toxicity (LD₅₀ based on metal content) of solutions of Pd(II) complexes with PhHMBP was found to be lower compared to cisplatin. It was shown that the use of solutions of palladium(II) complexes with PhHMBP inhibited tumor growth in mice with sarcoma 180

Annotation: To investigate the biological effects of exogenous lactoferrin (LF) on phenotypic profile and invasiveness of human prostate cancer (PC) cells in vitro. Materials and Methods: Human PC cell lines (LNCaP, DU-145) were cultured with an exogenous LF at a dose corresponding to IC30. The expression levels of steroid hormone receptors (androgen receptor, estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor), Her2/neu, Ki-67, E- and N-cadherin, were monitored by immunohistochemical analysis. The levels of miRNAs were assessed using q-PCR. The invasive activity of the cells was examined in a standard invasion test. Results: Exogenous LF reduced expression of steroid hormone receptors (ERα and PR) and Ki-67 in both PC cell lines. The expression of E-cadherin increased significantly in LF-treated DU-145 cells. Also, we established the decrease in invasive activity upon LF treatment by 40% and 30% in DU-145 and LNCaP cells, respectively. In DU-145 cells, incubation with exogenous LF resulted in an increase in the expression of oncosuppressive (miR-133a and miR-200b) miRNAs. Conclusions: Exogenous LF causes the changes in phenotypic characteristics of PC cells and levels of oncogenic and oncosuppressive miRNAs involved in the regulation of key cellular processes.

Annotation: The impact of growing tumor on polarization and functions of tumor-associated macrophages is well known while its influence on residential macrophages occupying different anatomical niches reminds to be elucidated. Aim: To study changes in polarization and functions of macrophages isolated from discrete anatomical niches in tumor-bearing mice at different stages of tumor growth. Materials and Methods: Ehrlich carcinoma was transplanted intramuscularly to Balb/c male mice. On days 7, 14, 21 and 28 after tumor transplantation, macrophages from tumor tissue, peritoneal cavity and spleen were isolated and analyzed. Nitric oxide production was measured by standard Griess reaction, arginase activity was determined by the measurement of urea, reactive oxygen species production was checked using NBT dye reduction assay and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, cytotoxic activity was estimated in MTT-assay. Results: Independently of their localization in different anatomic niches, macrophages in mice with transplanted Ehrlich carcinoma gradually lose their tumoricidal activities while arginase activity is upregulated. This indicates the shift of polarization from M1-like towards M2-like phenotype. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that growing tumor could be able to subvert functioning of macrophages at the systemic level
