SummaryThe potent anti-cancer agent doxorubicin (DOX) induces apoptosis of rapidly proliferating cells by inhibiting cellular proteasomes. The aim of the present study was to determine whether DOX modulates the level of expression and function of proteasomes in feline injection-site sarcoma (FISS). Tissue extracts from primary sarcoma lesions and the related healthy subcutis of 18 cats affected by FISS were investigated. Nine of these cats had received neoadjuvant DOX treatment and nine cats did not receive this therapy. There was enhanced proteasome expression in FISS, but this was not affected by administration of DOX. This finding may account for the low clinical effectiveness of DOX therapy in FISS and provides the rationale for developing new therapeutic protocols aimed at achieving better proteasomal inhibition in FISS and other tumours that respond poorly to DOX therapy.
