项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) has been shown to be a tumor suppressor in a wide variety of different cancer cell types. In this application, we propose to examine the mechanism of tumor suppression by MnSOD. We will examine which reactive oxygen or nitrogen species is involved. We propose that there are only three logical possibilities: superoxide radical, hydrogen peroxide, or nitric oxide radical. We will transfect the cDNA for proteins that affect these molecules into MnSOD over-expressing human breast cancer and glioma cell lines and determine the effect on the malignant phenotype. The other proteins that will be over-expressed include two forms of glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and nitric oxide synthase. Moreover, the effect of inhibiting the activity of these proteins will be determined. Inhibition of glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and nitric oxide synthase will be accomplished by chemical inhibitors as well as antisense oligodeoxynucleotides and siRNAs. We will also transfect glucose oxidase into cancer cells and examine the effect on the malignant phenotype. Glucose oxidase produces hydrogen peroxide when glucose is present as substrate and thus this experiment will examine further if hydrogen peroxide is the effector molecule. If we can determine the molecular effector of the growth inhibitory effect of MnSOD over-expression, then we can use that knowledge to develop new anticancer treatments based on MnSOD over-expression and inhibition of the effector removal pathway. For example, we already have data showing hydrogen peroxide is involved in the growth suppressive effect of MnSOD over-expression and so we plan to study the antitumor effect of MnSOD over-expression combined with inhibitors of hydrogen peroxide removal. In this way, we hope to be able to develop exciting new cancer therapies.

描述（由申请人提供）：线粒体抗氧化酶含有锰的超氧化物歧化酶（MNSOD）已被证明是多种不同癌细胞类型中的肿瘤抑制剂。在此应用中，我们建议检查MNSOD抑制肿瘤的机制。我们将检查涉及哪种活性氧或氮。我们建议只有三种逻辑可能性：超氧化物自由基，过氧化氢或一氧化氮自由基。我们将转染影响这些分子的蛋白质cDNA过度表达人类乳腺癌和神经胶质瘤细胞系，并确定对恶性表型的影响。其他将过表达的蛋白质包括两种形式的谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶，过氧化氢酶和一氧化氮合酶。此外，将确定抑制这些蛋白质活性的作用。谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶，过氧化氢酶和一氧化氮合酶的抑制作用将通过化学抑制剂以及反义寡脱氧核苷酸和siRNA来实现。我们还将将葡萄糖氧化酶转染到癌细胞中，并检查对恶性表型的影响。当存在葡萄糖作为底物时，葡萄糖氧化酶会产生过氧化氢，因此该实验将进一步检查过氧化氢是否是效应分子。如果我们可以确定MNSOD过表达的生长抑制作用的分子效应因子，那么我们可以使用该知识来开发基于MNSOD过表达和抑制效应子去除途径的新抗癌处理。例如，我们已经有数据表明，过氧化氢与MNSOD过表达的生长抑制作用有关，因此我们计划研究MNSOD过表达的抗肿瘤作用，并结合了过氧化氢的抑制剂。这样，我们希望能够开发令人兴奋的新癌症疗法。
