The adhesion of cancer cells to vascular endothelium is a critical process in hematogenous metastasis and might be similar to the recruitment of leukocytes at the site of inflammation. It is mediated by E-selectin and its ligands, of which the most stereospecific is a glycoconjugate sialyl Lewis x (CD15s), which may be expressed as an oligosaccharide branch of the CD44 glycoprotein, as well as a self-contained glycosphingolipid. It is also known that increased sialylation of glycoconjugates is a feature of malignant cells. The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of a novel thieno[2,3-b]pyridine, compound 1, in MDA-MB-231 triple-neg. breast cancer cells (TNBCs) upon CD15s and CD44 expression in different cell subpopulations using flow cytometry. CD15s expression was compared between mesenchymal-like cancer stem cells (CSC, CD44+CD24-), epithelial cells without CD44 (CD44-CD24+ and CD44-CD24-), and CD44+CD24+ cells that exhibit mesenchymal and epithelial features. In addition, expression of CD44 in CD15s+CSC and CD15s-CSC was determined Compound 1 significantly decreased the percentage of CD15s+CSC, CD15s+CD44+CD24+, and CD15s+CD44- subpopulations, as well as the expression of CD15s in CD44+CD24+ and CD44- cells, and therefore shows potential as a treatment for TNBC. The experimental part of the paper was very detailed, including the reaction process of N,N-Dimethylformamide Dimethyl Acetal(cas: 4637-24-5COA of Formula: C5H13NO2)
N,N-Dimethylformamide Dimethyl Acetal(cas: 4637-24-5) belongs to anime. Milder oxidation, using reagents such as NaOCl, can remove four hydrogen atoms from primary amines of the type RCH2NH2 to form nitriles (R―C≡N), and oxidation with reagents such as MnO2 can remove two hydrogen atoms from secondary amines (R2CH―NHR′) to form imines (R2C=NR′). Tertiary amines can be oxidized to enamines (R2C=CHNR2) by a variety of reagents.COA of Formula: C5H13NO2
