| Objective: Prevention by antioxidant agents including vitamin C (VC) and quercetin (QU), which are nontoxic, cost effective, and physiologically bioavailable, is a promising approach in breast cancer handling. The aim of this work is to investigate the influence of VCCQU on cytotoxicity profile of doxorubicin (DOX) plus paclitaxel (PAC) in breast cancer cells. Methods: The effect of each drug on its own or in combination was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Combination indexes were calculated using the Chou–Talalay method. Apoptosis and cell cycle analysis was investigated by flow cytometric assays. Results: Combination treatment with VCCQU plus drugs diminished IC50 value 2.28–7.7 and 10.5–66.6 fold in comparison with the drugs and PAC treatment alone, respectively, in all breast cancer cells and induced apoptosis at the early stages more than the treatment with the drugs alone (P<0.01). A marked reduction in Go/G1 and S phases was reported after combination therapy in MDA-MB 231 and MDA-MB 468 cells. MCF-7 cells demonstrated lower fractions of cells in S phase with no significant changes in G2/M phase (P < 0.01). The same treatment produced a significant increase in S and G2/ M phases in A549 cells (P < 0.001). Conclusion: Our results emphasized the importance of VCCQU in combination with the drugs to produce a synergistic antitumor effect in breast cancer cells. |
