The Akt/adenosine monophosphate protein kinase (AMPK)/mammalian target of
rapamycin (mTOR) pathway has emerged as a critical signaling nexus for regulating
cellular metabolism, energy homeostasis, and cell growth. Thus, dysregulation of
this pathway contributes to the development of metabolic disorders such as
obesity, type 2diabetes, and cancer. We previously reported that a combination of
grape polyphenols (resveratrol, quercetin and catechin: RQC), at equimolar
concentrations, reduces breast cancer (BC) growth and metastasis in nude mice,
and inhibits Akt and mTOR activities and activates AMPK, an endogenous inhibitor
of mTOR, in metastatic BC cells. The objective of the present study was to
determine the contribution of individual polyphenols to the effect of combined
RQC on mTOR signaling. Metastatic BC cells were treated with RQC individually or
in combination, at various concentrations, and the activities (phosphorylation)
of AMPK, Akt, and the mTOR downstream effectors, p70S6 kinase (p70S6K) and 4E
binding protein (4EBP1), were determined by Western blot. Results show that
quercetin was the most effective compound for Akt/mTOR inhibition. Treatment with
quercetin at 15?M had a similar effect as the RQC combination in the inhibition
of BC cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration. However, cell cycle analysis
showed that the RQC treatment arrested BC cells in the G1 phase, while quercetin
arrested the cell cycle in G2/M. In vivo experiments, using SCID mice with
implanted tumors from metastatic BC cells, demonstrated that administration of
quercetin at 15mg/kg body weight resulted in a ~70% reduction in tumor growth. In
conclusion, quercetin appears to be a viable grape polyphenol for future
development as an anti BC therapeutic.
