Abstract
An alkylating compound, 3-bromopyruvic acid (3-3-bromopyruvic acid (BP)) is a promising anti-cancer agent, potentially able to act on multidrug-resistant cells. Its action has been attributed mainly to inhibition of glycolysis. This compound induces also oxidative stress at a cellular level. The effects of 3-BP on gene expression have not been studied although they may determine the survival of cells exposed to 3-BP. The aim of this paper was to examine the effect 3-BP on gene expression pattern in breast MCF-7 cancer cells. Detection of the differences in gene expression was performed using microarrays and dysregulated genes were validated by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Exposure of cells to 100 µM 3-BP for 6, 12 and 24 increased expression and diminished expression of 39 and 6 genes, respectively. Among the induced genes, 22 belong to general cellular stress response genes, maintenance genes involved in redox homeostasis, responding to oxidative stress (among them metallothioneins, low-molecular-weight thiol homeostasis enzymes and genes coding for NAD(P)H-dependent oxidoreductases operating on complex organic substrates, including aldo-keto reductases). These results demonstrate that transient oxidative stress in cells exposed to 3-BP is followed by antioxidant response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 3-bromopyruvate (3-BrPA) and dichloroacetate (DCA) are inhibitors of cancer-cell specific aerobic glycolysis. Their application in glioma is limited by 3-BrPA's inability to cross the blood-brain-barrier and DCA's dose-limiting toxicity. The safety and efficacy of intracranial delivery of these compounds were assessed. METHODS Cytotoxicity of 3-BrPA and DCA were analyzed in U87, 9L, and F98 glioma cell lines. 3-BrPA and DCA were incorporated into biodegradable pCPP:SA wafers, and the maximally tolerated dose was determined in F344 rats. Efficacies of the intracranial 3-BrPA wafer and DCA wafer were assessed in a rodent allograft model of high-grade glioma, both as a monotherapy and in combination with temozolomide (TMZ) and radiation therapy (XRT). RESULTS 3-BrPA and DCA were found to have similar IC50 values across the 3 glioma cell lines. 5% 3-BrPA wafer-treated animals had significantly increased survival compared with controls (P = .0027). The median survival of rats with the 50% DCA wafer increased significantly compared with both the oral DCA group (P = .050) and the controls (P = .02). Rats implanted on day 0 with a 5% 3-BrPA wafer in combination with TMZ had significantly increased survival over either therapy alone. No statistical difference in survival was noted when the wafers were added to the combination therapy of TMZ and XRT, but the 5% 3-BrPA wafer given on day 0 in combination with TMZ and XRT resulted in long-term survivorship of 30%. CONCLUSION Intracranial delivery of 3-BrPA and DCA polymer was safe and significantly increased survival in an animal model of glioma, a potential novel therapeutic approach. The combination of intracranial 3-BrPA and TMZ provided a synergistic effect.
