Abstract

Abstract Background: Local anesthetics (LAs) are generally considered as safe, but cytotoxicity has been reported for several local anesthetics used in humans, which is not well investigated. In the present study, the cytotoxicity of lidocaine, ropivacaine and the combination of lidocaine and ropivacaine were evaluated on human melanoma cell lines. Melphalan, a nitrogen mustard alkylating agent, was used as a control agent for comparison of cytotoxic activity. Methods: Melanoma cell lines, A375 and Hs294T, were exposed to 1 h to different concentrations of above agents. Cell-viability after exposure was determined by flow cytometry. Results: Investigated LAs showed detrimental cytotoxicity on studied melanoma cell lines in time- (p < 0.001), concentration- (p < 0.001), and agent dependant. In both A375 and Hs294T cell lines, minimum cell viability rates were found after 72 h of exposure to these agents. Lidocaine 2% caused a reduction of vital cells to 10% ± 2% and 14% ± 2% in A375 and Hs294T, respectively after 72 h of exposure. Ropivacaine 0.75% after 72 h reduced viable cells to 15% ± 3% and 25% ± 3% in A375 and Hs294T, respectively. Minimum cell viability after 72 h exposure to the combination was 10% ± 2% and 18% ± 2% in A375 and Hs294T, respectively. Minimum cell viability after 72 h exposure to melphalan was 8% ± 1% and 12% ± 2%, in A375 and Hs294T, respectively. Conclusion: LAs have cytotoxic activity on human melanoma cell lines in a time-, concentration- and agent-dependant manner. Apoptosis in the cell lines was mediated through activity of caspases-3 and caspases-8.

Resumo

Resumo Justificativa: Os anestésicos locais (ALs) são geralmente considerados como seguros, mas citotoxicidade foi relatada em vários anestésicos locais usados em seres humanos, a qual não é bem investigada. No presente estudo, a citotoxicidade de lidocaína e ropivacaína e da combinação de lidocaína e ropivacaína foi avaliada em linhagens celulares de melanoma humano. Melfalano, um agente alquilante de mostarda nitrogenada, foi usado como um agente de controle para a comparação da atividade citotóxica. Métodos: Linhagens celulares de melanoma, A375 e Hs294T foram expostas por uma hora a concentrações diferentes dos agentes mencionados acima. A viabilidade celular após a exposição foi determinada por citometria de fluxo. Resultados: Os ALs investigados mostraram citotoxicidade prejudicial nas linhagens celulares de melanoma estudadas dependente do tempo (p < 0,001), da concentração (p < 0,001) e do agente. Em ambas as linhagens de células A375 e Hs294T, níveis mínimos de viabilidade celular foram encontrados após 72 horas de exposição a esses agentes. Lidocaína a 2% provocou uma redução das células vitais para 10% ± 2% e 14% ± 2% em A375 e Hs294T, respectivamente, após 72 horas de exposição. Ropivacaína a 0,75% após 72 horas reduziu as células viáveis para 15% ± 3% e 25% ± 3%, em A375 e Hs294T, respectivamente. A viabilidade celular mínima após exposição de 72 horas para a combinação foi de 10% ± 2% e 18% ± 2% em A375 e Hs294T, respectivamente. A viabilidade celular mínima após exposição de 72 horas ao melfalano foi de 8% ± 1% e 12 ± 2, em A375 e Hs294T, respectivamente. Conclusão: Os ALs têm atividade citotóxica em linhagens de celulares de melanoma humano de modo dependente do tempo, da concentração e do agente. A apoptose nas linhagens celulares foi mediada por meio da atividade das caspases-3 e caspases-8.
