Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Novel moxifloxacin-copper complexes were synthesized, characterized and screened for anti-proliferative and apoptosis-inducing activity against multiple human breast cancer cell lines (hormone-dependent MCF-7 and T47D as well as hormone-independent MDA-MB-231 and BT-20). The results indicated that the parent compound moxifloxacin (1) does not exert any inhibitory activity against breast cancer cell lines examined. On the other hand, the copper conjugate 2 and its nitrogen adducts 3-5 exerted growth inhibitory and apoptosis-inducing activity against breast cancer cell lines without any substantial effect on non-tumorigenic breast epithelial cells MCF-10A at equimolar concentration, suggesting a cancer cell-specific activity. BT-20 cells were more sensitive to compounds 2 and 3, while compounds 4 and 5 exerted significant anti-proliferative and apoptosis-inducing effects on T47D, MDA-MB-231 and BT-20 cell lines. Our results suggest that these novel compounds could be useful for the treatment of breast cancer in the future.
