Abstract
The expression of P450 enzymes and antioxidative enzymes in tumour tissue can have a major impact on the responsiveness of tumours to cancer chemotherapeutic drugs, therefore such information may be very precious when experiments are designed. The compressive information, concerning the expression of drug metabolism enzymes or antioxidative enzymes is still lacking, therefore in this study the expression of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and mitochondrial superoxide dismutase MnSOD (both mRNA and protein) in a panel of eight commonly used cancer cell lines, representing four tumour tissues was assayed. In the study two ovarian cancer cell lines A2780 and SKOV-3, two colorectal cancer LOVO and DLD-1, two breast cancer derived MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 and two cervical cancer cell lines HeLa and C33A were employed. The relatively high expression of all assayed enzymes was shown in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, lack of cancer cell specific CYP1B1 protein was discovered in LOVO colorectal cells. In order to test possible correlation between expression of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD and modulators of their activity, cytotoxicity of resveratrol and its promising hydroxylated analogue 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-trans-hexahydroxystilbene against cell lines used in experiment was assayed. The relatively high correlation was found between IC50 values calculated for 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-trans-hexahydroxystilbene and expression of MnSOD (r = 0.6562).

Introduction
A cancer cell culture has been used as a valuable tool for discovery and development of new anticancer drugs for decades. They are used for academic, clinical and industrial research. Although, the most commonly used cell lines were applied in experiments described in thousands of papers, even the most important cell culture collections do not provide compressive information describing their biological properties like, e.g. the expression of drug metabolizing enzymes, drug transporters, receptors or antioxidative enzymes. Only few experimental papers describing and comparing the expression and/or activity of crucial for cancer cell enzymes and factors have been published so far, e.g. in a panel of cancer cell lines activity of P450 enzyme was described by Yu et al. [1], microRNA expression profiles were presented by Blower et al. [2], global microRNA analysis was performed by Solkilde et al. [3], while expression of nuclear receptors was described by Holbeck et al. [4]. Compresive analysis of p53 status in cancer cell lines was provided by Berglind et al. [5] using UMD_p53 database available on http://p53.free.fr.
Since the expression of P450 enzymes and antioxidative enzymes in tumour tissue can have a major impact on the responsiveness of tumours to cancer chemotherapeutic drugs, such information may be very precious when experiments are designed. Information regarding expression of key drug metabolizing enzymes and antioxidative enzymes may be also useful when prodrugs activated by cellular metabolic systems are prepared [6–9].
P450 cytochromes are enzymes which catalyse Phase-I metabolism reactions. These family haem-containing enzymes catalyse C-, N- and S-oxidation and dealkylation reactions of both xenobiotics and endobiotics. P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) is, from a pharmacological point of view, one of the most important members of the CYP family. CYP1A1 participates in the metabolism of a large number of xenobiotics, as well as a small number of endogenous substrates. CYP1A1 is responsible for the metabolism of various drugs, food components, and environmental contaminants. At the same time hydroxylation at a vacant position of an aromatic ring belongs to the most important reactions catalysed by this enzyme. This reaction is believed to be a critical step for the initiation of carcinogenesis, through the formation of highly reactive conversion products that can cause oncogenic and teratogenic mutations in experimental animals and humans [10, 11].
Another interesting member of the CYP1 subfamily is P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) cytochrome which is, similarly to CYP1A1, involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics and endobiotics. Similarly to CYP1A1, CYP1B1 activates several environmental mutagens, e.g. polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), heterocyclic amines and aromatic amines [6]. CYP1B1 also catalyses the 4-hydroxylation of estrogens considered to be an important step in hormonal carcinogenesis [6]. Human CYP1B1 protein was detected in a variety of tumours but could not be detected in adjacent to normal tissues, where only mRNA was detected. This suggests that CYP1B1 could activate anticancer agents specifically in the cancer cells. The range of therapeutic strategies including CYP1B1-activated prodrugs as well as CYP1B1 inhibitors are currently tested [8].
The redox cycling of polyhydroxylated compounds catalysed by CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 may result in generation of superoxide radicals. Superoxide radical (O2 · −) plays a central role in oxidative stress and impacts on the production of a plethora of other reactive oxygen species. The cellular and extracellular level of O2 · − is therefore controlled by the family of very efficient enzymes belonging to the superoxide dismutase (SOD) family. Cu, ZnSOD (SOD1) is located in cytosol, MnSOD (SOD2) is located in the mitochondrial matrix, while SOD3 is located in extracellular space [12, 13]. These enzymes catalyse the dismutation (disproportionation) of O2 · − to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen and are essential to protect aerobic life from the toxic effects of oxygen [12, 13]. Some studies reported that MnSOD expression is elevated in cancer cells compared to normal tissue, including gastric and oesophageal [14, 15], colorectal [16], prostate [17] and lung cancer [18]. Moreover, MnSOD was shown in several reports to exert significant effect on growth and survival of cancer cells, for instance, changes in MnSOD levels in the cell affect the transcriptional activity of activator protein-1 (AP-1), dramatically increasing cells proliferation [19, 20]. It was reported by some authors that MnSOD overexpression may suprese tumour growth [21]; on the other hand, significant association between increased MnSOD activity and poor prognosis in cancer can be attributed to alterations in cancer cell migratory and invasive capacity [22]. Some reports describe MnSOD-p53 interactions [23–30]. Our own results suggest that ROS-generating agents may cause p53-mediated MnSOD downregulation and lead to induction of p53-transcriptional functions, which subsequently lead to the activation of mitochondrial driven apoptotic processes. MnSOD is therefore believed a key enzyme involved in the establishment of the cellular redox environment and controlling the biological status of cells.
Inhibition of CYP1 isoenzymes by resveratrol and methoxy- hydroxy- as well as thiomethylstilbenes was shown in several in vitro models [31–37]. This project is kind of pre-study preceding broader project aiming to evaluate relationship between CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD and their effect on cytotoxic activity of resveratrol and its higher hydroxylated analogues. Therefore, as a first step we needed to screen expression of these enzymes in a panel of cancer cells and find possible correlation between their expression and cytotoxicity.
Materials and methods
Chemicals
Resveratrol analogue 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-trans-hexahydroxystilbene (M12), was synthesized as described previously [38]. The RQ-PCR probes were provided by Roche (Mannheim, Germany). Probe numbers: 59, 61, 27, 60 and 23 were used for CYP1A1, CYP1B1, MnSOD, GADPH, and MRPL19 detection, respectively. The monoclonal antibodies were purchased from Santa Cruz Biotechnology (Dallas, TX USA). All other reagents used in experiments (including resveratrol) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA).
Cell culture
The cancer cell lines used in the experiment were purchased from the European Type Culture Collection (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St. Louis, MO, USA). The cell lines are listed in Table 1. The cells were maintained in phenol red-free DMEM medium supplemented with 10 % foetal bovine serum (FBS), 2 mM glutamine, penicillin (100 U/ml), and streptomycin (0.1 mg/ml). The cells were cultivated under standard conditions at 37 °C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5 % CO2 and 95 % air. For RNA isolation and western blot analysis the cells were seeded in a 6-well plates at a density of 1 × 106 cells per well. All the cell culture chemicals were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Co. St. Louis, MO, while all the cell culture consumables were provided by BD Falcon.
Real-time quantitative PCR (RTq-PCR) analysis
Total RNA was isolated according to the method of Chomczynski and Sacchi [39].The RNA concentration was quantified by measuring the optical density (OD) at 260 nm and their integrity was confirmed by denaturing agarose gel electrophoresis. RNA samples were treated with DNAse I and reverse-transcribed into cDNA using oligo-dT primers. Reverse transcription was performed using M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) according to manufacturer instructions.
RQ-PCR was conducted in the Light Cycler real-time PCR detection system Roche Diagnostics GmbH, (Mannheim, Germany) using a LightCycler® 480 Probes Master kit. Target cDNA was quantified using the relative quantification method. The quantity of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD in each sample was standardized by GAPDH and MRPL19 (Table 2). For RTq-PCR analysis of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD mRNA expression, 1 μl of total (20 μl) cDNA solution was added to the mixture of the LightCycler® 480 Probes Master kit (Roche, Mannheim, Germany), primers and probes for CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD respectively. In case of negative control, cDNA was not added.
SDS-PAGE and western blot analysis
The cells were grown in 6 well plates. The cells were collected when they were 60 % confluent and dissolved in a RIPA buffer with proteinase inhibitors (30 min on ice) and centrifuged. The obtained supernatant was used for electrophoresis, protein concentration in supernatant was determined using Qubit fluorometer (Invitrogen) and Quant-iTTM Protein Assay Kit (Invitrogen, Burlington, Ontario,Canada). For electrophoresis, 30 μg of protein were resuspended in sample buffer and separated on 10 % Tris–glycine gel using SDS-PAGE. Gel proteins were transferred to nitrocellulose, which was blocked with 5 % milk in Tris buffered saline/Tween. Immunodetection was performed with rabbit polyclonal anti-CYP1A1 Ab (sc-20772), rabbit polyclonal anti-CYP1B1 Ab (sc-32882), anti-MnSOD Ab (sc-30080) followed by incubation with goat anti-rabbit HRP- conjugated Ab (sc-2004). The membranes were also incubated with anti-actin HRP conjugated Ab (sc-1616) to ensure equal protein loading of the lanes. Bands were revealed using SuperSignal West Femto maximum sensitivity substrate Pierce Biotechnology Inc. (Rockford, IL, USA). Densitometric quantification of band intensity was measured using ImageJ 1.46 software (NIH, USA) and was normalised relatively to the band intensity of the β-actin loading control.
Cytotoxicity study
As recent data showed the MTT-reducing activity can be increased by the polyphenolic antioxidant resveratrol without a corresponding increase in the number of living cells, therefore a protein determination assay was used for the cytotoxicity experiments adapted from Seibert et al. [40]. Briefly, the cells were detached using trypsin, counted using Casy-1 cell counter (Scharfe System, Reutlingen Germany), and seeded into 96 well plates at the density of 10,000 cells/100 μL/well. Cells were allowed to attach overnight and incubated for 24 h with resveratrol and 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-trans-hexahydroxystilbene in concentrations ranging from 1.5 to 100 μM in six replicates. DMSO was used as a control, and the concentration in medium did not exceed 0.1 %.Two groups of six wells receiving 0.1 % DMSO served as a control. After incubation, the medium was aspirated and the cell layers were washed three times with phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Cells were lysed by incubation with 0.5 N NaOH for 45 min at 37 °C. Protein content was determined Bio-Rad Protein Assay Kit (Bio-Rad Hercules, USA) modified for microtiter plates. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) (1.5–24 μg/well) was used to determine the standard curve. Absorption at 750 nm was read with a microtiter plate photometer (ELX800, Bio-TEK). The protein content of culture wells was compared to the mean protein content of the control cultures (12-wells per plate) and expressed as percentage of control. Experiments were replicated at least 2 times with cultures of different passages. The IC50 values were determined from semilogarithmic plots of the mean concentration-effect relationships.
Statistical analysis
One-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test was performed using GraphPad Prism version 6.02 for Windows, GraphPad Software, La Jolla California USA, www.graphpad.com.
Results
In this study expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms CYP1A1, CYP1B1 as well as MnSOD in 8 cell lines representing 4 tumuor tissues is presented. In the tested cells the highest MnSOD mRNA expression was found in MDA-MB-231 cells (RA = 1.79 ± 0.14), while the lowest expression was found in MCF-7 (RA = 0.34 ± 0.09), C33A (RA = 0.32 ± 0.07) and A2780 (RA = 0.31 ± 0.02) cell lines. These results were in agreement with MnSOD protein level measured using the western blot technique. The only exception was LOVO cell line. In this colorectal cell line the level of MnSOD protein was relatively high when compared with mRNA (Fig. 1). The highest level of CYP1A1 mRNA was found in both breast cancer cell lines: MCF-7 (RA = 2.04 ± 0.43) and MDA-MB-231(RA = 1.86 ± 0.30) used in our screening; similarly the highest level of CYP1A1 protein was found in these lines (Fig. 2). The most interesting results were obtained for CYP1B1; the highest level of CYP1B1 protein was again measured in HeLa and SKOV-3 cells followed by MDA-MB-231 cells. CYP1B1 mRNA and protein level in LOVO cells can be presented as the most interesting results obtained in our study. The CYP1B1 mRNA level was very low (RA = 0.05 ± 0.01) while CYP1B1 protein was not present in colorectal LOVO cancer cells (Fig. 3). Detailed statistical analysis is provided in supplementary materials (Tables 1s, 2s, 3s).
In order to test possible relationship between the expression of CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD and cytotoxicity of compounds tested in our laboratory we were able to analyse the relationship between cytotoxic activity of resveratrol (3,4′,5-trans-hydroxystilbene) and 3,3′,4,4′,5,5′-trans-hexahydroxystilbene (M12). The IC50 values obtained in cytotoxicity studies are presented in Table 3. The relatively high correlation (r 2 = 0.6562) between expression of MnSOD and cytotoxicity of M12 was found and presented in Fig. 4, all other relationships are presented in Fig. 1s.
Discussion
Cancer cell lines are extensively used for various experiments in scientific laboratories worldwide. Although, a plethora of data is generated every day in the field of cancer cells research, there is a need for systematization and collation of available information about their properties like expression of enzymes, receptors or transcription factors. The expression of drug metabolizing and antioxidative enzymes is a crucial parameter for designing of anticancer drugs [41, 42]. Differences in the expression of drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters in cancer cells, were shown in several reports and were used to explain diverse effect of several natural products and anticancer agents against different cancer cell lines. For instance, it was shown that the expression of organic anion-transporting polypeptides 1B1 and 1B3 in ovarian cancer OVCAR-3 and SKOV-3 cells may modulate paclitaxel disposition during therapy [43], while the expression of sulfotransferase 1A1 may modify growth of breast cancer cells incubated with resveratrol [44]. The activation of the natural product eupatorin, which is attributed to CYP1A1 expression in MDA-MB-486 cells, but not normal MCF-10A cells, was described by Androutsopoulos and coworkers [45]. It was also suggested that different CYP1B1 expression patterns in ovarian cell lines A2780 and SKOV-3 may affect their sensitivity to cytotoxic activity of 3,4,4′,5-tetramethoxystilbene (DMU-212) [46]. In our opinion data presented in this paper may be very helpful in designing similar experiments. On the other hand, this information may be also useful in designing experiments employing transfection of these cells with siRNA or cDNA targeting CYP1A1, CYP1B1 and MnSOD. For example, such experiments were used for explanation of activation of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine by CYP1A1 on mutagenesis and DNA damage in CHO cells [47], while experiments employing CYP1B1 transfected cells were used to explain its role in activation of docetaxel [48]. As it was shown in our cytotoxicity study, the correlations between the P450 or MnSOD activities and the patterns of toxicity of anticancer agents may also aid in the design of further experiments to evaluate new hypotheses regarding the role of P450 and MnSOD enzymes in the metabolism of selected anticancer agents. The most interesting results of our study showed, that level of MnSOD expression in cancer cells may modulate cytotoxic effect exerted by superoxide generating compounds like, e.g. M12, this hypothesis, however, should be further evaluated using cells stably transfected with MnSOD.
