The effect of sodium butyrate on mouse and human melanoma cell lines was evaluated. Sodium butyrate (0.1-2mM) is shown to reduce the clonogenic potential of several melanoma cell lines. The antiproliferative effect of sodium butyrate is accompanied by a marked increase in the activity of the plasma-membrane bound enzyme gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase. Sodium butyrate treated cells acquire a well developed rough endoplasmic reticulum and accumulate fat droplets. The development of the endoplasmic reticulum is associated with a marked increase in the activity of the enzyme marker NADPH cytochrome c reductase. It is suggested that the phenotypic alterations induced by sodium butyrate may serve as markers for the action of this agent on melanoma cells and other tumours.

Biochemical and ultrastructural alterations accompany the anti-proliferative effect of butyrate on melanoma cells
