Özet
Natural compounds from venomous animals have a big potent in cancer drug discovery. This study aimed to investigate the apoptotic potential of Theranekron D6, an alcoholic extract of the venom from the whole spider Tarantula cubensis, in cells derived from breast (MCF-7), lung (A549), and bone (Saos-2) cancer. TD6 stimulated a significant increase in the oxidative stress and stimulated apoptosis in cancer cells. To understand the molecular mechanism for the induction of cell death by TD6, fluorometric apoptosis/necrosis and RT-PCR assays were performed. In MCF-7 cell line, TD6 increased CAS-9 expression, as well as the mRNA and protein expression ratio of BAX/BCL-2. Furthermore, protein expression level of the Pro-CAS-9 was decreased in TD6-treated MCF-7 cells. TD6 increased CAS-9 and CAS-3 expressions in A549 and Saos-2 cell lines, but the expression ratio of the BAX/BCL-2 did not increase …
