Abstract:
:We demonstrate that neurokinin A (NKA) and substance P (SP) play a role in the proliferation of the estrogen receptor-negative (ER-) cell line MDA-MB-231, a human breast carcinoma expressing both NK-1 and NK-2 receptors. In vitro experiments showed that the specific receptor antagonists MEN 11,467 (NK-1) and nepadutant (MEN 11,420; NK-2) inhibited tumor cell proliferation, and blocked the stimulatory effect of SP and NKA. Anti-tumoral activity of NK-1 and NK-2 receptor antagonists was demonstrated in nude mice, measuring growth inhibition of MDA-MB-231 tumor cells xenografted s.c. and by using the hollow-fiber assay. In both systems a significant inhibition was found when compounds were administered at 5 mg/kg i.v. every day for 2 weeks. Results obtained from both these models suggest that the in vivo activity of NK-1 and NK-2 antagonists may be a result of a cytostatic effect rather than a cytotoxic effect. Our results suggest that the control of breast carcinoma (ER-) growth by tachykinin receptor antagonists may become a new form of targeted therapy for these human tumors.
