Cell viability was assessed using a Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) colorimetric assay, while apoptotic cell death was confirmed using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Initial viability screening revealed significant cytotoxic activity from BisP4 treatment (1 µM⁻100 µM) on all three cell lines, with IC50 values for MiaPaca-2, BxPC-3, and CFPAC-1 16.9 µM, 23.7 µM, and 36.3 µM, respectively. Cytotoxic treatment time-response (4 h, 24 h, and 48 h) revealed a 24 h treatment time was sufficient to produce a cytotoxic effect on all cell lines. Light microscopy evaluation (DAPI staining) of BisP4 treated MiaPaca-2 PC cells revealed dose-dependent characteristic apoptotic morphological changes. In addition, flow cytometry confirmed BisP4 induced apoptotic cell death induction of activated caspase-3/-7. The bispidinone derivative BisP4 induced an apoptosis-mediated cytotoxic effect on MiaPaca-2 cell lines and significant cytotoxicity on CFPAC-1 and BxPC-3 cell lines. Further investigations into the precise cellular mechanisms of action of this class of compounds are necessary for potential development into pre-clinical trials.]]> Thu 17 Mar 2022 14:34:42 AEDT ]]> Phosphorylation of calcium/calmodulin-stimulated protein kinase II at T286 enhances invasion and migration of human breast cancer cells https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30150 Thu 17 Feb 2022 09:30:37 AEDT ]]> Lipidomic profiling of extracellular vesicles derived from prostate and prostate cancer cell lines https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43246 Thu 15 Sep 2022 10:17:31 AEST ]]> Identification of biomarkers and novel targets for prostate cancer from extracellular vesicles https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35516 Thu 11 Feb 2021 09:22:18 AEDT ]]> Extracellular vesicles with altered tetraspanin CD9 and CD151 levels confer increased prostate cell motility and invasion https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33473 Thu 09 Dec 2021 11:01:36 AEDT ]]> Tetraspanin CD9 is regulated by MiR-518f-5p and functions in breast cell migration and in vivo tumor growth https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44184 Mon 10 Oct 2022 10:48:32 AEDT ]]>
