Thioridazine Enhances Cisplatin-Induced DNA Damage in Cisplatin-Resistant Human Lung Cancer Cells

Thioridazine was used to sensitize cisplatin against cisplatin-resistant human lung cancer cells. Cells received thioridazine, cisplatin, or both drugs (the combination). Thioridazine synergized cisplatin to increase percentages of dead and apoptotic cells. DNA damage was detected using the comet as...

Sumario:Thioridazine was used to sensitize cisplatin against cisplatin-resistant human lung cancer cells. Cells received thioridazine, cisplatin, or both drugs (the combination). Thioridazine synergized cisplatin to increase percentages of dead and apoptotic cells. DNA damage was detected using the comet assays; the combination led to the highest alkaline- and neutral-comet percentages, demonstrating exacerbation of both single- and double-strand breaks. After thioridazine treatment, levels of glutathione, and BRCA2, RAD51, and ERCC1 proteins were decreased. These data manifested that thioridazine decreased the capacities of detoxification and DNA repair, thereby enhancing cisplatin-induced DNA damage in resistant cells.
