Impact of calcium ion on cytotoxic effect of the boroxine derivative, K2[B3O3F4OH]
The effect of Ca2+ ions on the cytotoxic ability of boron heterocyclic compound dipotassium trioxohydroxytetrafluorotriborate(K2[B3O3F4OH]), on in vitro tumor cells (mammary adenocarcinoma 4T1, melanoma B16F10 and squamous cell carcinoma SCCVII) and non-tumoral fibroblast cells (mouse dermal L929 and hamster lung V79) was examined. At small concentrations of Ca2+ ions (0.42 mM), K2[B3O3F4OH] (3.85 mM) has a very strong cytotoxic effect on all cancer cells tested (89.1, 85.6 and 84.6%) and significantly less effect on normal cells (19.5 and 24.2%), respectively. Applying larger concentrations of Ca2+ ions (9.42– 72.42 mM), at the same concentration of K2[B3O3F4OH], no significant cytotoxic effect was detected on cancer cells and normal cells investigated. The selective ability of K2[B3O3F4OH], in the medium with a low concentration of Ca2+ ions has a strong cytotoxic effect on cancer cells and very weak effect in normal cells, opens up the possibility of its application in antitumor therapy.
