Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most common types of brain tumor in adults. Despite the availability of treatments for this disease, GBM remains one of the most lethal and difficult types of tumors to treat, and thus, a majority of patients die within 2 years of diagnosis. Infection with Zika virus (ZIKV) inhibits cell proliferation and induces apoptosis, particularly in developing neuronal cells, and thus could potentially be considered an alternative for GBM treatment. In the present study, two GBM cell lines (U-138 and U-251) were infected with ZIKV at different multiplicities of infection (0.1, 0.01 and 0.001), and cell viability, migration, adhesion, induction of apoptosis, interleukin levels and CD14/CD73 cell surface marker expression were analyzed. The present study demonstrated that ZIKV infection promoted loss of cell viability and increased apoptosis in U-138 cells, as measured by MTT and triplex assay, respectively. Changes in cell migration, as determined by wound healing assay, were not observed; however, the GBM cell lines exhibited an increase in cell adhesion when compared with non-tumoral cells (Vero). The Luminex immunoassay showed a significant increase in the expression levels of IL-4 specifically in U-251 cells (MOI 0.001) following exposure to ZIKV. There was no significant change in the expression levels of IFN-γ upon ZIKV infection in the cell lines tested. Furthermore, a marked increase in the percentage of cells expressing the CD14 surface marker was observed in both GBM cell lines compared with in Vero cells; and significantly increased CD73 expression was observed particularly in U-251 cells, when compared with uninfected cells. These findings indicate that ZIKV infection could lead to reduced cell viability, elevated CD73 expression, improved cellular adherence, and higher rates of apoptosis in glioblastoma cells. Further studies are required to explore the potential use of ZIKV in the treatment of GBM.

Abstract
PURPOSE As the 'de novo' drug discovery faces a highly attrition rates, drug repositioning procures a heighten concern in identifying novel uses for existing medications. This study aimed to fabricate radioiodinated resveratrol as a potent microtubules interfering agent for cancer theragnosis. METHODS Resveratrol was radiolabeled with radioactive iodine where the radioiodination efficiency was enlightened and the computational approaches were employed to investigate the affinity and specificity with tubulins. Furthermore, the in-vivo distribution and pharmacokinetic studies in normal and tumor induced mice were investigated. RESULTS The maximum radioiodination yield (94.6 ± 1.66) was achieved at optimum preparation parameters stated as 100 μg/mL of oxidizing agent, 100 μg/ml of resveratrol, reaction time of 30 min and reaction pH 5. The in silico studies showed that di-iodinated resveratrol (compound 6) exhibited the best binding score (-34.46) and interaction with the β-tubulin binding site. The in vivo distribution in tumor models revealed a significant accumulation (4.02% ID/g) in tumor lesion at 60 min p.i. The rate of drug elimination demonstrated a mono-exponential decline of radioactivity versus time in the blood. CONCLUSION Radioiodinated resveratrol revealed good microtubules targeting which render it as a novel theranostic probe for cancer management.

Comparative Analysis of the Antitumor Activity of Cis- and Trans-Resveratrol in Human Cancer Cells with Different p53 Status. Molecules 2021; 26:5586. [PMID: 34577057 PMCID: PMC8466563 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26185586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Resveratrol, a natural plant phytoalexin, is produced in response to fungal infection or- UV irradiation. It exists as an isomeric pair with cis- and trans-conformation. Whereas multiple physiological effects of the trans-form, including a pronounced anti-tumoral activity, are nowadays elucidated, much less knowledge exists concerning the cis-isomer. In our work, we analyzed the antiproliferative and cytotoxic properties of cis-resveratrol in four different human tumor entities in direct comparison to trans-resveratrol. We used human cell lines as tumor models for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC; HepG2, Hep3B), colon carcinoma (HCT-116, HCT-116/p53(-/-)), pancreatic carcinoma (Capan-2, MiaPaCa-2), and renal cell carcinoma (A498, SN12C). Increased cytotoxicity in all investigated tumor cells was observed for the trans-isomer. To verify possible effects of the tumor suppressor p53 on resveratrol-induced cell death, we used wild type and p53-deleted or -mutated cell lines for every tested tumor entity. Applying viability and cytotoxicity assays, we demonstrated a differential, dose-dependent sensitivity towards cis- or trans-resveratrol among the respective tumor types.

Abstract
Resveratrol is a natural polyphenolic stilbene isolated from various plants, foods and beverages with a broad spectrum of biological and pharmacological properties through modulating diverse targets and signaling pathways. Particularly, it has attracted a great deal of attention as a promising and multitarget anticancer agent due to its potential use in chemoprevention and chemotherapy of various tumors. However, unfavorable pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics profile such as poor bioavailability restricted its applications. Therefore, medicinal chemists have synthesized a lot of novel derivatives and analogues of resveratrol using different modification strategies to overcome these limitations and improve anticancer efficacy. Herein, we reviewed the design, synthesis, structure-activity relationship and mechanism of the most potent and privileged resveratrol-based compounds that showed promising anticancer activities in the last five years. We classified these compounds into the ten different categories based on their chemical structure similarities.
