“…Likewise, a 50% inhibition of A549 cells was observed after curcumin treatment for 48 hours at 16.28 μM. 34 A similar outcome was shown for H460 cells after treatment with 5-50 μM curcumin for 24 hours. 35 Comparatively, the IC 50 values of A549 and H460 cells were much lower in our study than those reported in the literature, which could be due to the presence of bisdemethoxycurcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and curcumin in both nanoemulsion and extract.…”

The objectives of this study were to explore the inhibition mechanism of lung cancer cells A549 and H460 by curcuminoid extracts and nanoemulsions prepared from Curcuma longa Linnaeus. In addition, human bronchus epithelial cell line BEAS-2B (normal cell) was selected for comparison. A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed to separate and quantify the various curcuminoids in C. longa extract, including curcumin (1,714.5 μg/mL), demethoxycurcumin (1,147.4 μg/mL), and bisdemethoxycurcumin (190.2 μg/mL). A high-stability nanoemulsion composed of Tween 80, water, and curcuminoid extract was prepared, with mean particle size being 12.6 nm. The cell cycle was retarded at G2/M for both the curcuminoid extract and nanoemulsion treatments; however, the inhibition pathway may be different. H460 cells were more susceptible to apoptosis than A549 cells for both curcuminoid extract and nanoemulsion treatments. Growth of BEAS-2B remained unaffected for both the curcuminoid extract and nanoemulsion treatments, with a concentration range from 1 to 4 μg/mL. Also, the activities of caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 followed a dose-dependent increase for both A549 and H460 cells for both the treatments, accompanied by a dose-dependent increase in cytochrome C expression and a dose-dependent decrease in CDK1 expression. Interestingly, a dose-dependent increase in cyclin B expression was shown for A549 cells for both the treatments, while a reversed trend was found for H460 cells. Both mitochondria and death receptor pathways may be responsible for apoptosis of both A549 and H460 cells.

“…Moreover, curcumin has been shown to suppress the self-renewal of breast TICs (25), reduce the side population of rat glioma cell lines (23), and promote the differentiation of glioma TICs by inducing autophagy (28). Recently, curcumin-regulated miRNAs have been shown to be involved in the epigenetic regulation of TICs properties in several types of malignant cancers (29)(30)(31)(32). However, the miRNAs that mediate curcumin-dependent regulatory mechanisms in HNCTICs remain unclear.…”

miR145 Targets the SOX9/ADAM17 Axis to Inhibit Tumor-Initiating Cells and IL-6–Mediated Paracrine Effects in Head and Neck Cancer

et al. 2013

ALDH1þ CD44 þ cells are putative tumor-initiating cells (TIC) in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNC). miR-145 regulates tumorigenicity in various cancers but the breadth of its mechanistic contributions and potential therapeutic applications are not completely known. Here, we report that ALDH1 þ CD44 þ -HNC cells express reduced levels of miR145. SPONGE-mediated inhibition of miR-145 (Spg-miR145) was sufficient to drive tumor-initiating characteristics in non-TICs/ALDH1 À CD44-negative HNC cells. Mechanistic analyses identified SOX9 and ADAM17 as two novel miR145 targets relevant to this process. miR-145 expression repressed TICs in HNC in a manner associated with SOX9 interaction with the ADAM17 promoter, thereby activating ADAM17 expression. Notably, the SOX9/ADAM17 axis dominated the TIC-inducing activity of miR-145. Either miR-145 suppression or ADAM17 overexpression in non-TICs/ALDH1À CD44 À -HNC cells increased expression and secretion of interleukin (IL)-6 and soluble-IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R). Conversely, conditioned medium from SpgmiR145-transfected non-TICs/ALDH1 À CD44 À -HNC cells was sufficient to confer tumor-initiating properties in non-TICs/ALDH1À CD44 À -HNC and this effect could be abrogated by an IL-6-neutralizing antibody. We found that curcumin administration increased miR-145 promoter activity, thereby decreasing SOX9/ADAM17 expression and eliminating TICs in HNC cell populations. Delivery of lentivral-miR145 or orally administered curcumin blocked tumor progression in HNC-TICs in murine xenotransplant assays. Finally, immunohistochemical analyses of patient specimens confirmed that an miR-145 low /SOX9 high /ADAM17 high phenotype correlated with poor survival. Collectively, our results show how miR-145 targets the SOX9/ADAM17 axis to regulate TIC properties in HNC, and how altering this pathway may partly explain the anticancer effects of curcumin. By inhibiting IL-6 and sIL-6R as downstream effector cytokines in this pathway, miR-145 seems to suppress a paracrine signaling pathway in the tumor microenvironment that is vital to maintain TICs in HNC.

“…There is increasing evidence that chemotherapy treatment with various anticancer drugs such as curcumin (a naturally occurring flavinoid), gemcitabine, 5-FU, capecitabine or fludarabine affects miRNA expression in a number of cancers including lung adenocarcinoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, pancreatic and colorectal cancer (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14). Our current study presents the first evidence that chemotherapy affects miRNA expression in esophageal cancer cells.…”

Abstract. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is often used in the treatment of advanced esophageal cancer. In this study, we determined the impact of chemotherapy on microRNA (miRNA) expression in esophageal cancer cells, and whether identified changes might have biological relevance. Two esophageal carcinoma cell lines (one adenocarcinoma and one squamous cell carcinoma) were treated with cisplatin or 5-fluorouracil for 24 or 72 h. RNA was extracted from cells following 24-h treatment, and used for microarray studies. Promising miRNA candidates were selected for RT-PCR validation. Target prediction using TargetScan, combined with bioinformatic analysis (Ingenuity Pathway Analysis, IPA), was performed to evaluate the implications of the altered miRNA expression. Thirteen miRNAs
