Bioactivity | Leachianone A, isolated from Radix Sophorae, has anti-malarial, anti-inflammatory, and cytotoxic potent[1]. Leachianone A induces apoptosis involved both extrinsic and intrinsic pathways[2]. |
Invitro | Leachianone A (0-20 μg/ml; 24-72 hours) exhibits a marked inhibition on the survival of HepG2 cells time- and dose-dependently manner, IC50 values are 6.9 μg/ml, 3.4 μg/ml and 2.8 μg/ml in cells with 24-, 48- and 72-hours treatment, respectively[1].Leachianone A (10-30 μg/ml; 48 hours) indicates that at low concentration of LA (10 μg/ml), a substantial amount of cells is primarily in the early phase of apoptosis, at higher concentrations, induces a shift of the cell population to late apoptotic/ necrotic stage[1].Leachianone A (10-30 μg/ml; 48 hours) decreases the precursor of caspase-3 in a dose-dependent manner, reduces the protein level of the pro-forms of upstream initiator caspases, caspases-8 and -9, decreases two downstream substrates, namely inhibitor of caspase-activated DNase(ICAD) and poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) in HepG2 cells[1].
