- Abstract
- (EP1-4), cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), and COX-2 in nontumor and tumor human liver tissues,
and also to evaluate the antitumor activity of selective EP1 receptor antagonist
used alone or in combination with COX-1 and COX-2 selective inhibitors. Semiquantitative
PCR analyses revealed that EP1-4, COX-1, and COX-2 mRNA expression was detected
in nearly all the tissue samples assayed, although with a high variability between
nontumor and tumor tissues. In vitro EP1 receptor antagonist inhibited anchorageindependent
cell growth and reduced the viability of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
cells in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, treatment with the combination of EP1
receptor antagonist and COX inhibitors produced a significantly greater cell growth
inhibition than the single agent alone. These findings suggest that the EP1 receptor may
represent an important target for HCC treatment, and in addition they could provide
preclinical support for a combined chemotherapeutic approach with EP1 antagonists
and COX inhibitors in the treatment of liver cancer. (literal)
