Neuroblastoma is an embryonic tumor originating from the neural crest. It accounts for 8–10% of all childhood cancers. Although Cisplatin is used in neuroblastoma treatment, it has many side effects, such as ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and neurotoxicity. One herbal agent that has attracted attention in recent years is oleuropein (OLE), the active component of olive leaf. This component belongs to the polyphenol group and it has antioxidant, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertensive and anti-carcinogenic effects. It has beneficial effects against neurodegeneration in both culture cells and model organisms. Oleuropein has been shown to be increased apoptosis in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line in one study. Cisplatin (cis-diaminedichloroplatinum II (CDDP) is a widely used agent for the treatment of many different human cancers in childhood and adults with antimitotic and antineoplastic properties. CDDP is the most effective chemotherapeutic agent in specially treatment of neuroblastoma. Purpose of this study was to determine whether oleuropein and CDDP have possible anti-proliferative activity in different types of human neuroblastoma cells as representing different clinical features (bone marrow metastatic LAN-5 cells and treated with chemotherapy and beam therapy CHP-134 cells representing late relapse) investigated. Human bone marrow metastatic LAN-5 and treated with chemotherapy and beam therapy CHP-134 neuroblastoma cells representing late relapse were used in this study. The effects of OLE and CDDP on LAN-5 and CHP-134 neuroblastoma cell proliferation and apoptotic cell death was investigated using WST-1 cell proliferation and Annexin-V/PI flow cytometric assays. Oleuropein and CDDP have been shown to inhibit proliferation of LAN-5 and CHP-134 neuroblastoma cells. In further studies, it is planned to investigate different cell death mechanisms by using combination of oleuropein and cisplatin in different kind of human neuroblastoma cells.

Abstract MYCN-amplified (MNA) neuroblastoma is an aggressive neural crest-derived pediatric cancer. However, MYCN is indispensable for development and transcriptionally regulates extensive network of genes. Integrating anti-MYCN ChIP-seq and gene expression profiles of neuroblastoma patients revealed the metabolic enzymes, MTHFD2 and PAICS, required for one-carbon metabolism and purine biosynthesis were concomitantly upregulated, which were more susceptible to metastatic neuroblastoma. Moreover, we found that MYCN mediated the folate cycle via MTHFD2, which contributed one-carbon unit to enhance purine synthesis, and further regulated nucleotide production by PAICS in response to cancer progression. Dual knockdown of the MYCN-targeted gene pair, MTHFD2 and PAICS, in MNA neuroblastoma cells synergically reduced cell proliferation, colony formation, migration ability, and DNA synthesis. By systematically screening the compound perturbagens, the gene expression levels of MTHFD2 and PAICS were specifically suppressed by anisomycin and apicidin across cell lines, and our co-treatment results also displayed synergistic inhibition of MNA neuroblastoma cell proliferation. Collectively, targeting a combination of MYCN-targeted genes that interrupts the interconnection of metabolic pathways may overcome drug toxicity and improve the efficacy of current therapeutic agents in MNA neuroblastoma.
