Vitamin D3 derivatives and retinoids can induce cell cycle arrest, differentiation and cell death in many cell lines. These compounds can act cooperatively in some of their functions and may be of potential use either individually or in combination in the treatment of breast cancer. The effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and several analogues were evaluated on malignant phenotypic traits of breast cancer cell lines MCF-7, T-47D and MDA-MB-231. Both 1,25(OH)2D3 and ATRA caused a decrease in anchorage independent colony formation in MCF-7 and T-47D cells in a dose-dependent manner. The effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 10(-10) and 10(-9) M were synergistic with ATRA 10(-8) M in T-47D cells but were antagonistic in both MCF-7 and in T-47D cells at most concentrations. Both 1,25(OH)2D3 and ATRA individually induced an accumulation of MCF-7 cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle and an associated increase in p21WAFI/CiP1, p27KiP1 and a dephosphorylation of Rb but the effects were not additive. Both compounds inhibited the invasive capacity of MDA-MB-231 cells. 1,25(OH)2D3 but not ATRA caused an increase in E-cadherin levels in MDA-MB-231 cells. These two functions were not additive. The compounds 1,25(OH)2D3, a noncalcemic analogue 1,25(OH)2-16-ene-23-yne-D3, ATRA, AGN195183, an RARalpha-specific agonist, and AGN190168 (tazarotene), an RARbeta/gamma-selective agonist, induced differentiation as determined by measurements of lipid droplet formation. The individual effects of 1,25(OH)2-16-ene-23-yne-D3 combined with ATRA or with tazarotene at 10(-9) M each were additive in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells on lipid formation. The data demonstrate that both 1,25(OH)2D3, ATRA, and selected analogues induce a more differentiated phenotype in breast cancer cells with additive effects that are function- and cell-specific.
