TI - Manganese Inhibits Viability of Prostate Cancer Cells.
PG - 137-145
AB - BACKGROUND/AIM: Androgen deprivation therapy is usually in the initial phase a
successful treatment for prostate cancer but eventually most patients develop
androgen-independent metastatic disease. This study investigated if manganese
(Mn) reduces viability of prostate cancer via induction of apoptosis. MATERIALS
AND METHODS: The prostate cancer cell lines PC3, DU145 and LNCaP underwent dose-
and time-dependent screening of viability, analyzed by the
3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assay. Flow
cytometry was used for the cell-cycle and apoptosis analyses. Intracellular Mn
concentration was measured using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry.
RESULTS: At Mn concentrations of 200-1000 muM, the effect on viability was most
pronounced in PC3 followed by LNCaP cells. These cell lines also showed higher
intracellular concentration of Mn compared to DU145. In all cell lines, Mn
increased the proportion of cells arrested in the G0/G1 phase and induced
apoptosis. CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating
Mn as a potential agent in prostate cancer therapy.
