Objective: To determine the combination effect of celecoxib and gemcitabine-carboplatin chemotherapy to the apoptosis of cultured-urothelial cancer cell line. Material & Methods: Urothelial carcinoma cell line originating from Bladder Ca 5637 was cultured and used in this in vitro study. Three-groups of cultured-urothelial cancer cell line consisted of (1) control (C), (2) gemcitabine-carboplatin treated group (GC) and (3) gemcitabine-carboplatin and celecoxib treated group (GCC) were treated with 0.086 µM gemcitabine, 290 µM carboplatin and 25 µM celecoxib. All groups were evaluated at 24 hours following treatment, and the apoptotic index (AI) measured accordingly. Results: Significant mean apoptotic index differences were found between the C and GC group; and between C and GCC groups at 24 hours following treatment. However, the AI of GCC was lower than the GC group although not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: Our study have shown that gemcitabine-carboplatin and the combination of both with celecoxib may increase the apoptosis of urothelial cancer cell line. The role of celecoxib in the addition of gemcitabine-carboplatin to treat urothelial cancer cell line needs to be elucidated further.

The P2X7 receptor is an ATP-gated cation channel with a still ambiguous role in cancer progression, proposed to be either pro- or anti-cancerous, depending on the cancer or cell type in the tumour. Its role in mammary cancer progression is not yet defined. Here, we show that P2X7 receptor is functional in highly aggressive mammary cancer cells, and induces a change in cell morphology with fast F-actin reorganization and formation of filopodia, and promotes cancer cell invasiveness through both 2- and 3-dimensional extracellular matrices in vitro. Furthermore, P2X7 receptor sustains Cdc42 activity and the acquisition of a mesenchymal phenotype. In an immunocompetent mouse mammary cancer model, we reveal that the expression of P2X7 receptor in cancer cells, but not in the host mice, promotes tumour growth and metastasis development, which were reduced by treatment with specific P2X7 antagonists. Our results demonstrate that P2X7 receptor drives mammary tumour progression and represents a pertinent target for mammary cancer treatment.
