Abstract

Background: Breast cancer cell's growth and survival are supported by breast cancer stem cells (bCSCs) mammosphere formation. bCSCs represent a subpopulation of undifferentiated cancer cells which associated with self-renewing abilities, tumor initiation, drug resistance, and metastasis. Overexpression of the B Cell Lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) family in many tumor cells contributes to apoptosis resistance. Trisindoline is an indole trimer alkaloid natural compound that provides a cytotoxic effect on cancer cells. A new modification of trisindoline has been synthesized into trisindoline 5 in 2021. Objective: This study purposed to investigate the effect of trisindoline 5 compounds against BCL-2 gene expression in bCSCs in vitro. Methods: The bCSCs MDA-MB-231 were divided into control and treatment groups which were further analyzed in gene expression using the qPCR Livak method. Results: Based on gene expression analysis, the results showed that trisindoline 5 may decrease the expression of BCL-2 in MDA-MB-231 cells. Conclusion: This study concludes that trisindoline 5 could downregulate the antiapoptotic BCL-2 gene expression in bCSCs in vitro.

Abstract

Background: Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the subpopulation of cancer cells that have been demonstrated as the cause of tumor formation. The most common cancer for women and the second leading cause of death in breast cancer. Numerous genes have been involved in breast cancers, including p53. In cancer cells, p53 as well-known as the tumor suppressor gene plays an important role in directing cells with DNA damage into apoptosis. Trisindolines are heterocyclic nitrogen compounds consisting of an isatin core bearing two indole moieties that provide cytotoxic effects on cancer cells. Recently research had led to the development of the new modification of trisindoline compound into trisindoline 5. Objective: This study aims to investigate the effect of trisindoline 5 compounds against p53 gene expression in CSCs MDA-MB-231 in vitro. Methods: CSCs MDA-MB-231 were divided into control and treatment groups which were further analyzed in gene expression using the qPCR Livak method. Results: Based on gene expression analysis, trisindoline 5 increases the expression of p53 in CSCs MDA-MB-231. Conclusion: This study informed that trisindoline 5 could upregulate the expression of tumor suppressor gene p53 in CSCs MDA-MB-231 in vitro.
