Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) is isolated fromLinum usitatissimumseeds. The antiproliferative effects of SDG(1)and its derivatives secoisolariciresinol(2)and secoisolariciresinol-4 ', 4 ''-diacetate (3)have been evaluated on MCF-7 breast cancer cells and normal breast epithelial line MCF-10A. Lignan1has not shown cytotoxic effects on MCF-7 cells, while derivatives2and3have inhibited cell growth with IC(50)values of 25 and 11 mu M, respectively. Estrogen receptor alpha is a key growth driver in MCF-7 cells. Compound1did not affect the activity of ER alpha, while derivatives2and3showed significant antiestrogenic effects. Compounds2and3caused apoptosis in the MCF-7 line, determined by the cleavage of PARP. SDG derivative3enhanced the effect of doxorubicin. SDG derivatives can be considered as promising agents that exhibit a combined antiestrogen and proapoptotic effect in hormone-dependent breast cancer cells.
