Prostate cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide, even when diagnosed at an early stage in humans and dogs. Dogs have a significant incidence of spontaneous prostate cancer, which is highly similar to human androgen-independent prostate cancer and represents a valuable model for comparative studies. Cannabidiol (CBD) and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are the two main cannabinoids extracted from and have demonstrated antiproliferative and anti-invasive properties in different tumor types. In this study, CBD or THC-rich extracts inhibited the proliferation of two canine prostatic carcinoma cell lines, PC1 and PC2, showing an IC50 of 3.43 and 3.57 μM for CBD rich extracts, and 4.90 and 4.48 μM THC rich extracts, respectively. Cell death was also observed with both Annexin V and Propidium iodide staining for the canine cell lines. These results provide new information concerning the use of rich oil in canine PC and open a promising opportunity for further in vitro and in vivo studies to establish the mechanisms of action of these compounds using dogs as a natural model for prostatic carcinoma.
前列腺癌是全球癌症相关死亡的主要原因之一,即便在人类和犬类中早期诊断出来也是如此。犬类自发性前列腺癌的发病率很高,与人类雄激素非依赖性前列腺癌高度相似,是比较研究的宝贵模型。大麻二酚(CBD)和Δ9-四氢大麻酚(THC)是从大麻中提取的两种主要大麻素,已在不同肿瘤类型中显示出抗增殖和抗侵袭特性。在本研究中,富含CBD或THC的提取物抑制了两种犬前列腺癌细胞系PC1和PC2的增殖,富含CBD的提取物对PC1和PC2的IC50分别为3.43和3.57 μM,富含THC的提取物对PC1和PC2的IC50分别为4.90和4.48 μM。对犬类细胞系进行膜联蛋白V和碘化丙啶染色时也观察到了细胞死亡。这些结果提供了有关富含大麻素油在犬前列腺癌中应用的新信息,并为进一步的体外和体内研究开辟了一个有前景的机会,以便利用犬作为前列腺癌的天然模型来确定这些化合物的作用机制。
