An Organofluorine Isoselenocyanate Analogue of Sulforaphane Affects Antimetabolite 5-Fluorouracil's Anticancer Activity: A Perspective for New Combinatory Therapy in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
Antimetabolites, especially 5-fluorouracil, are commonly used clinically to treat breast, colon, and other cancers. However, their side effects and inefficiency in monotherapy have prompted further searches for new combinations. Thus, the anticancer effect of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and the sulforaphane analogue, 4-isoselenocyanato-1-butyl 4'-fluorobenzyl sulfoxide (ISC), were tested in in vitro and in vivo models of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) as a new option for this treatment-resistant and aggressive type of breast cancer. A synergic interaction between 5-FU and ISC was observed in the TNBC in vitro model MDA-MB-231 cell line, which led to enhanced antiproliferative effects. The results of in vitro studies were confirmed by in vivo tests, which demonstrated stronger tumor growth inhibition and additive interactions between 5-FU and ISC in the murine TNBC model. Moreover, the results of the body mass and blood analysis showed the safety of the tested combination. The mechanistic study revealed that the combined treatment triggered apoptosis and necrosis, as well as inhibited cell migration.

In vitro antiproliferative and cytotoxic activities of novel triphenyltin isoselenocyanate in human breast carcinoma cell lines MCF 7 and MDA-MB-231.
Intensive investigation for novel antiproliferative and cytotoxic effective chemical compounds is currently concentrated on structurally modified agents of natural or synthetic source. The selenium derivative of triorganotin compound, triphenyltin isoselenocyanate (TPT-NCSe) caused higher cytotoxicity in hormone sensitive MCF 7 (IC 50-250 nM) in comparison with triple-negative MDA-MB-231 breast carcinoma cell line (IC 50-450 nM) as determined by MTT assay. Measurement of DNA damage showed presence of crosslinks in both cell lines treated by increasing TPT-NCSe concentrations. This compound decreased mitochondrial membrane potential shown by JC-1 staining in a concentration-dependent manner in both cell lines. Activation of caspases-3/7 was observed in MDA-MB-231 cells and was significant only by concentrations causing significant level of crosslinks. On the other hand, migration assay revealed inhibitory effect of viability keeping 100 nM concentration of TPT-NCSe on migration of MDA-MB-231 cells. Our data has shown that this selenium containing triorganotin molecule exerts DNA damage-linked antineoplastic activity in breast carcinoma cell lines studied.
