Phytochemical name or plant extracts |
Neobractatin |
PMID |

Literature evidence |
We found that Neobractatin (NBT), a natural compound isolated from Garcinia bracteata, could efficiently inhibit breast and lung cancer cells metastasis. |
IUPAC name |
(12R,13S)-7-hydroxy-5-methoxy-15,15-dimethyl-4-(2-methylbut-3-en-2-yl)-13-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-2,14-dioxapentacyclo[11.4.1.01,10.03,8.012,16]octadeca-3(8),4,6,10-tetraene-9,18-dione |

Target gene or protein |
MBNL2 |
Gene or Protein evidence |
Based on the RNA-sequencing result and transcriptome analysis, Muscleblind-like 2 (MBNL2) was found to be significantly upregulated in the cells treated with NBT. |
Target pathways |
pAKT/EMT signaling pathway |
IC50 |
2.82 ± 0.43 μM against MDA-MB-231
6.27 ± 1.03 μM against MCF-7 |
Potency |
This study suggest that NBT possesses significant antitumor activity in breast and lung cancer cells that is partly mediated through the MBNL2 expression and enhancement in metastasis via the pAKT/EMT signaling pathway. |
Cell line/ mice model |
MDA-MB-231 xenografts mouse model, A549, HepG2, T98, MCF-7 |
Additional information |
Subsequent in vivo study showed the same metastasis inhibition effect in NBT and MBNL2 in MDA-MB-231 xenografts mouse model. |
