Phytochemical name or plant extracts |
Aglaiabbreviatin F (AA-6) |
PMID |
29050217 |
Literature evidence |
After 48 h treatment, AA-5 (1) and AA-6 (2) significantly increased mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis by enhancing reactive oxygen species (ROS) with depressed mitochondrial membrane potential and caspase-9 activities. |

Gene or Protein evidence |
After 48 h treatment, AA-5 (1) and AA-6 (2) significantly increased mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis by enhancing reactive oxygen species (ROS) with depressed mitochondrial membrane potential and caspase-9 activities.
Moreover, computational modeling studies showed that AA-6 (2) might bind to the modulator site on P-gp and act as an inhibitor, not a substrate of P-gp. |
Target pathways |
Akt pathway |
IC50 |
12.46 µM against MCF-7
6.1 µM against MCF-7/ADM |
Potency |
Therefore, AA-5 (1) and AA-6 (2) may be effective anti-tumor and reversal agents for the further development of therapeutics against MDR breast cancer. |
Cell line/ mice model |
MCF-7, MCF-7/ADM |
Additional information |
Importantly, AA-6 (2) were more effective than that of adriamycin (IC50 = 57.3 µM) and vincristine (IC50 = 7.5 µM) in MCF-7/ADM cells. |
