The study found that the metallodrugs cisplatin and CasIIgly have different metabolic effects on highly metastatic breast cancer cells. CasIIgly affects carbohydrate and nucleotide metabolism and has a rapid effect, making it a good alternative for treating this type of cancer.
The knowledge of the metabolic processes of designed metallodrugs for cancer treatment is an area that has been not profoundly studied. Casiopeina IIgly (CasIIgly), which belongs to the Casiopeinas(R) family, is a copper (II) coordination compound that has shown good biological activity against several cancer cells, low toxicity in normal cells, and antineoplastic activity in in vivo murine and xenografted models. In this work we employed a triple-negative highly metastatic breast carcinoma line (MDA-MB-231), which is one of the cancer types with a great mortality index, for H-1-NMR metabolomic analysis using cisplatin and CasIIgly, in order to quantify the effect of metallodrugs in the metabolic profile of this cell tumor line as a consequence of treatment at different times. Our findings indicate that cisplatin mainly contributes to phospholipid biosynthesis while CasIIgly affects processes such as carbohydrates and nucleotides metabolism. Also, we observed that CasIIgly treatment has an important and fast effect over MDA-MB-231 cell metabolism, which makes it a good alternative for treatment in this type of cancer.
