Core Tip |
Our study demonstrates for the first tiOur study demonstrates for the first time the complex but selective actions of Food and Drug Administration-approved, well-tolerated antidepressant drug known as fluoxetine (FLX) in malignant triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The significant reduction in cell growth of inflammatory TNBC line SUM149PT was a consequence of unfolded protein response induced by FLX and subsequent induction of autophagy and mitochondrial apoptosis, demonstrating the intricate crosstalk between endop-lasmic reticulum and mitochondria in response to cellular stress. Combination of low dose FLX with existing regimen for TNBC may provide dual benefit of alleviating psychological distress, including depression and anxiety, and inducing death in aggressive tumor cells.
