() has been used as a medicinal plant in Asia for its effects on digestive system for the last 2000 years. To investigate the anti-cancer activity of rhizome of , the ethanolic and methanolic extracts and essential oil of the rhizome were prepared and their effects were assessed on human gastric cancer cell line (AGS).
The viability of cells which were treated with the extracts and the essential oil was assessed by MTT assay. To evaluate the anti-angiogenic property of the extracts, tube formation assay was done. Cell cycle distribution and the expression of Oct4 and Nucleostemin, after treatments, were checked by flowcytometry and quantitative RT-PCR, respectively. Furthermore, analysis of essential oil from was done by GC-MS.
Our results showed that the growth of AGS cells was inhibited by the extracts and essential oil and the extracts inhibited the angiogenesis in HUVEC cells. Our data revealed that the extracts and essential oil of caused G1 arrest in AGS cells and downregulation of Oct4 and NS after treatment. By GC-MS analysis, we found new compounds such as epiprezizaene, valencene and isocyclocitral in essential oil of
All together, our results showed that the extracts of have anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic effects on cancer cells.
在过去2000年里,()作为一种药用植物因其对消化系统的作用而在亚洲被使用。为了研究()根茎的抗癌活性,制备了根茎的乙醇提取物、甲醇提取物和精油,并评估了它们对人胃癌细胞系(AGS)的影响。
用MTT法评估用提取物和精油处理后的细胞活力。为了评估提取物的抗血管生成特性,进行了管形成试验。处理后,分别通过流式细胞术和定量RT-PCR检查细胞周期分布以及Oct4和核干细胞素的表达。此外,对()的精油进行了GC-MS分析。
我们的结果表明,提取物和精油抑制了AGS细胞的生长,且提取物抑制了人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVEC)的血管生成。我们的数据显示,()的提取物和精油导致AGS细胞G1期阻滞,并在处理后下调Oct4和核干细胞素。通过GC-MS分析,我们在()的精油中发现了新的化合物,如表普雷齐烷、瓦伦烯和异环柠檬醛。
总之,我们的结果表明,()的提取物对癌细胞具有抗增殖和抗血管生成作用。
