Fluopsin C, an antibiotic compound derived from microorganisms, has exhibited antitumor, antibacterial, and antifungal activities. This study investigated the mechanisms of fluopsin C's antiproliferative effects, including cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, cell cycle arrest, apoptosis induction, mitochondrial membrane potential change, and modulation of mRNA expression of genes involved in stress response and cell death. The results demonstrated that fluopsin C interferes with tumor spheroid growth and regulates essential molecular processes associated with stress and cell death.
Fluopsin C is an antibiotic compound derived from secondary metabolism of different microorganisms, which possesses antitumor, antibacterial, and antifungal activity. Related to fluopsin C antiproliferative activity, the aim of this study was to examine the following parameters: cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, cell cycle arrest, cell death induction (apoptosis), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), colony formation, and mRNA expression of genes involved in adaptive stress responses and cellular death utilizing a monolayer. In addition, a three-dimensional cell culture was used to evaluate the effects on growth of tumor spheroids. Fluopsin C was cytotoxic (1) producing cell division arrest in the G(1) phase, (2) elevating expression of mRNA of the CDKN1A gene and (3) decrease in expression of mRNA H2AFX gene. Further, fluopsin C enhanced DNA damage as evidenced by increased expression of mRNA of GADD45A and GPX1 genes, indicating that reactive oxygen species (ROS) may be involved in the observed genotoxic response. Reticulum stress was also detected as noted from activation of the ribonuclease inositol-requiring protein 1 (IRE1) pathway, since a rise in mRNA expression of the ERN1 and TRAF2 genes was observed. During the cell death process, an increase in mRNA expression of the BBC3 gene was noted, indicating participation of this antibiotic in oncotic (ischemic) cell death. Data thus demonstrated for the first time that fluopsin C interferes with the volume of tumor spheroids, in order to attenuate their growth. Our findings show that fluopsin C modulates essential molecular processes in response to stress and cell death.
