Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Increasing evidence suggests that a pro-inflammatory microenvironment affects distant metastasis of breast cancer cells, in particular by favoring tumor cell adhesion to endothelium. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of different anti-inflammatory drugs to inhibit this effect in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Breast cancer cells from the metastatic cell line KM22 were incubated with activated Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Tumor cell adhesion was quantified by fluorescence microscopy. The anti-inflammatory drugs ibuprofen, aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid), diclofenac, and dexamethasone were used as inhibiting agents. RESULTS:Aspirin and dexamethasone significantly reduced breast cancer cell adhesion to HUVECs (20.3%, p<0.000; and 25%, p<0.05, respectively). Ibuprofen and diclofenac did not significantly reduce tumor cell adhesion. CONCLUSION:Aspirin and dexamethasone seem to be able to partly inhibit adhesion of breast cancer cells to endothelium. Future studies should attempt to optimize this effect in vitro, in preparation for potential in vivo trials.
