| Abstract | A novel amidine analogue of chlorambucil N-(2-(4-(4-bis(2-chloroethyl)aminophenyl)butyryl)aminoethyl)-5-(4-amidinophenyl)-2-furanecarboxamide hydrochloride (AB(1)), and the parent drug were compared for their effects on collagen and DNA synthesis in breast cancer MDA-MB 231 cells. IC(50) values for chlorambucil and its amidine analogue for collagen synthesis were found to be about 44 and 19µM, respectively. Increased ability of AB(1) to suppress the protein synthesis, compared to chlorambucil, was found to be related to an inhibition of prolidase activity and expression. The phenomena were probably a result of disruption of ß(1)-integrin and the insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) receptor mediated signaling caused by this compound. Expression of ß(1)-integrin receptor, as well as focal adhesion kinase pp125(FAK) (FAK), growth-factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2), son of sevenless protein 1 (Sos1) and phosphorylated mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPK), extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1 (ERK(1)) and kinase 2 (ERK(2)) but not Src and Shc proteins was significantly decreased in cells incubated for 24h with 10µM AB(1), compared to controls. Chlorambucil in the same conditions did not evoke any changes in expression of all these signaling proteins, as shown by Western immunoblot analysis. In addition, AB(1) revealed a higher antiproliferative activity than chlorambucil, accompanied by a stronger down-regulation of IGF-I receptor expression. The results were confirmed by [(3)H]thymidine incorporation assay. Incubation of the cells with 10µM AB(1) for 12 and 24h contributed to a decrease in DNA synthesis by about 33 and 46% of the control values, respectively, while in case of chlorambucil by about 23 and 29%, respectively. These data suggest that the amidine analogue of chlorambucil (AB(1)) disturbs MDA-MB 231 cell metabolism more potently than does the parent drug, chlorambucil. The mechanism of this phenomenon may be due to its stronger suppression of ß(1)-integrin and IGF-I receptor signaling. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
