Abstract

Chemoradiotherapy with temozolomide is the current standard treatment option for patients with glioblastoma. However, the majority of patients with glioblastoma survive for <2 years. Therefore, it is necessary to develop more effective therapeutic strategies for the treatment of glioblastoma. 7‑O‑succinyl macrolactin A tromethamine salt (SMA salt), a macrolactin compound, is known to possess an antiangiogenic activity. The present study investigated the antitumor effects of SMA salt in the treatment of glioblastoma by evaluating in vitro and in vivo antitumor effects of SMA salt in an experimental glioblastoma model. The antitumor effects of the drug on human glioblastoma U87MG, U251MG and LN229 cell lines were assessed using in vitro cell viability, migration and invasion assays. Nude mice with established U87MG glioblastoma were assigned to either the control or SMA salt treatment group. The volume of tumors and the duration of survival were also measured. SMA salt affected cell viability and caused a concentration‑dependent inhibition effect on the migration and invasion of glioblastoma cell lines. Animals in the SMA salt treatment group demonstrated a significant reduction in tumor volume and an increase in survival (P<0.05). Treatment with SMA salt presented more cytotoxic effects as well as anti‑migration and anti‑invasion activity compared with the control group in vitro and in vivo. These results suggest that SMA salt has significant antitumor effects on glioblastoma.
