Inhibitory Effect of Minocycline on in Vitro Invasion and Experimental Metastasis of Mouse Renal Adenocarcinoma

Abstract: Degradation of the extracellular matrix by metalloproteinases is a critical phenomenon in cancer invasion and metastasis. Recent studies have revealed that minocycline (minocycline hydrochloride, a tetracycline) suppresses in vivo and in vitro mammalian collagenolytic activity. We investigated whether minocycline inhibited in vitro invasion and experimental pulmonary metastasis in subline-2 of streptozotocin-induced mouse renal adenocarcinoma (MRAC-PM2) cells. In vitro invasion assay demonstrated that treatmen… Show more

“…Our previous study showed that minocycline inhibits experimental metastasis of mouse renal adenocarcinoma (Masumori et al, 1994). In addition, minocycline inhibits angiogenesis in vivo and in vitro (Tamargo et al, 1991;Gilbertson-Beadling et al, 1995).…”

“…Considering the potent inhibitory effects of tetracyclines against MMPs, their anti-cancer potential has been studied in a variety of cancers, including melanoma, lung, breast and prostate cancers (Lokeshwar, 2011). Minocycline has been shown to inhibit in vitro invasion and experimental pulmonary metastasis in mouse renal adenocarcinoma (MRAC-PM2) cells (Masumori et al, 1994). In addition, the i.p.…”

“…During recent years, doxycycline and minocycline have been shown to exert biological effects that are completely separate and distinct from their antimicrobial action. These effects include: inhibition of matrix metalloproteases (7), tumor-induced angiogenesis (8), malignant cell growth (9), and bone resorption (10) and depression of oxygen radical release from polymorphonuclear neutrophils (11,12), inhibition of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) [a putative mediator of inflammation (13,14)], and inhibition of protein tyrosine nitration by scavenging peroxynitrite (15). Experimental and clinical studies indicate that minocycline and doxycycline may be beneficial in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and potentially in other inflammatory diseases (16)(17)(18).…”
