Targeted Inhibition of Snail Activity in Breast Cancer Cells by Using a CoIII‐Ebox Conjugate

Abstract: The transition from a non-invasive to an invasive phenotype is an essential step in tumor metastasis. The Snail family of transcription factors (TFs) is known to play a significant role in this transition. These TFs are zinc fingers that bind to the CAGGTG Ebox consensus sequence. CoIII-Ebox is a cobalt(III) complex attached to an Ebox oligonucleotide that confers specificity towards Snail TFs. CoIII-Ebox has been shown to inhibit Snail-mediated embryonic neural crest development in Xenopus laevis, but its eff… Show more

“…Among new predictive biomarkers of aggressive DCIS, Snail1 seems a promising one. Most recent studies suggest that Snail1 suppression can reduce invasive propensity of breast cancer cells . Moreover, some drugs and anti‐tumor agents have been reported to inhibit EMT by down‐regulation of Snail1 signaling pathway, which results in anti‐metastatic effect .…”

“…A Co(III) complex conjugated to a CAGGTG hexanucleotide was synthesized. This complex binds to SNAI1 and prevents any interaction with DNA, thus reducing the invasive potential of tumor cells [93]. Second, the SNAI1-p53 complex acts as a target.…”

“…Furthermore, Snail expression is decidedly associated with tumor grade, nodal metastasis of invasive ductal carcinoma, and outcome prediction of breast cancer [48,51,52]. Blockade of Snail expression or activity is targeted to restrain EMT and cancer metastasis [53][54][55]. The role of Snail in propolin G-suppressed migration and invasion in MDA-MB-231 cells was appraised because propolin G-inhibited Snail expression had been observed in MDA-MB-231 cells through a dose-and time-dependent model (Figure 3 A,B).…”
