Phytochemical Name : Chelidonine

Properties Information
PhytoCAT-ID PhytoCAT-220
Phytochemical name or plant extracts Chelidonine
PMID 25890994
Literature evidence Chelidonine did not significantly inhibit the adhesion of the cells to type 1 collagen (COL-I), however it did affect cell spreading and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.

Plant parts NA
Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein AKT, ERK1/2
Gene or Protein evidence These results suggest that chelidonine exhibits anti-migratory and anti-invasive effects in MDA-MB-231 cells, by suppressing COL-I-induced integrin signaling, through inhibiting the formation of the IPP complex and subsequent down-regulation of IPP downstream signaling molecules, such as Akt and ERK1/2.
Target pathways NA
IC50 1.0±0.1 µM against MDA‑MB‑231
Potency NA
Cell line/ mice model MDA-MB-231
Additional information  Chelidonine suppresses migration and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells by inhibiting formation of the integrin-linked kinase/PINCH/α-parvin complex.
