Lung cancer continues to be the world's leading cause of cancer death and the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has attracted much attention. The tubers of are regarded as "an excellent medicine for lung diseases" and as the first choice to treat several lung diseases. In this study, seventeen phenanthrene derivatives, including two new compounds ( and ), were isolated from the tubers of . Most compounds showed cytotoxicity against A549 cells. An EdU proliferation assay, a cell cycle assay, a wound healing assay, a transwell migration assay, a flow cytometry assay, and a western blot assay were performed to further investigate the effect of compound on A549 cells. The results showed that compound inhibited cell proliferation and migration and promoted cell apoptosis in A549 cells. The mechanisms might correlate with the regulation of the Akt, MEK/ERK, and Bcl-2/Bax signaling pathways. These results suggested that the phenanthrenes of might be important and effective substances in the treatment of NSCLC.
肺癌仍然是全球癌症死亡的主要原因,非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)的治疗引起了广泛关注。 被视为“肺病的良药”,是治疗多种肺病的首选药物。在这项研究中,从 块茎中分离出十七种菲衍生物,包括两种新化合物( 和 )。大多数化合物对 A549 细胞表现出细胞毒性。进行了 EdU 增殖测定、细胞周期测定、划痕愈合测定、Transwell 迁移测定、流式细胞术测定和 Western blot 测定,以进一步研究化合物 对 A549 细胞的作用。结果表明,化合物 抑制 A549 细胞的增殖和迁移,并促进细胞凋亡。其机制可能与调节 Akt、MEK/ERK 和 Bcl-2/Bax 信号通路有关。这些结果表明, 中的菲类化合物可能是治疗 NSCLC 的重要有效物质。
