Phytochemical Name : Cyanidin-3-glucoside (Cy-3-gluc)

Properties Information
PhytoCAT-ID PhytoCAT-151
Phytochemical name or plant extracts Cyanidin-3-glucoside (Cy-3-gluc)
PMID 20170107
Literature evidence However, the anthocyanin Cy-3-gluc was able to induce a downregulation of ER levels although with no significant effect on MCF-7 proliferation.

Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein ErbB2, Sirt1, KLF4, HER2, AKT, EMT
Gene or Protein evidence C3G attenuated ethanol-induced migration/invasion of breast cancer cells expressing high levels of ErbB2 (BT474, MDA-MB231 and MCF7(ErbB2)) in a concentration dependent manner, Cyanidin-3-glucoside induces mesenchymal to epithelial transition via activating Sirt1 expression in triple negative breast cancer cells. Cy3G is a potential anticancer reagent as it can inhibit EMT and breast cancer cell migration and invasion by upregulating KLF4. They inhibit the phospho-HER2 and phospho-AKT and were confirmed to induce HER2-psotive breast cancer cells apoptosis both in vitro and in vivo.
Target pathways STAT3/VEGF pathway
IC50 1.8±0.5 µM against BT-474 2.6±0.8 µM against HCC1569 1.5±0.3 µM against MDA-MB-453
Potency It is therefore suggested that flavonoids from LFP might be potentially useful components for functional foods and/or anti-breast cancer drugs Western blotting show that both peonidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-glucoside significantly reduce the phospho-HER2, phospho-AKTs, and phopspho-p44/42MAPK levels compared to control cells
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7, BT-474, HCC1569, MDA-MB-453, 6–7-week-old female nude mice
Additional information  Induces a downregulation of ER levels. C3G could also inhibit certain malignant behaviors of cancer cells, however, whether repression of EMT was involved in its anti-cancer especially TNBC effect remains unknown. Cyanidin-3-glucoside inhibits ethanol-induced invasion of breast cancer cells overexpressing ErbB2.
