Abstract

The study aims to test the effect of different sodium valproate (NaVP) doses on small cell lung cancer NCI-H146 cells tumor in chicken embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. Xenografts were investigated in the following groups: nontreated control and 5 groups treated with different NaVP doses (2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 mmol/L). Invasion of tumors into CAM in the nontreated group reached 76%. Tumors treated with 8 mmol/L NaVP doses significantly differed in tumor invasion frequency from the control and those treated with 2 mmol/L (P < .01). The calculated probability of 50% tumor noninvasion into CAM was when tumors were treated with 4 mmol/L of NaVP. Number of p53-positive cells in tumors was significantly reduced when treated with NaVP doses from 3 to 8 mmol/L as compared with control; number of EZH2-positive cells in control significantly differed from all NaVP-treated groups. No differences in p53- and EZH2-positive cell numbers were found among 4, 6, and 8 mmol/L NaVP-treated groups. Invaded tumors had an increased N-cadherin and reduced E-cadherin expression. The results indicate the increasing NaVP dose to be able to inhibit tumors progression. Expression of p53 and EZH2 may be promising target markers of therapeutic effica...Continue Reading

Cadherins and Catenins

Cadherins (named for "calcium-dependent adhesion") are a type of cell adhesion molecule (CAM) that is important in the formation of adherens junctions to bind cells with each other. Catenins are a family of proteins found in complexes with cadherin cell adhesion molecules of animal cells: alpha-catenin can bind to β-catenin and can also bind actin. β-catenin binds the cytoplasmic domain of some cadherins.
