Other cancers Breast cancer
Target gene or protein Bax, Fas/FasL, Bcl-2, EMT
Gene or Protein evidence Further knockdown of JNK by siRNA could inhibit ziyuglycoside II-mediated apoptosis with attenuating the up-regulation of Bax and Fas/FasL as well as the down-regulation of Bcl-2. The results showed that the treatment of Ziyu II could inhibit EMT, reverse anoikis resistance and subsequently suppress cell migration and invasion in MDA-MB-231 cells, which was associated with the inactivation of Src/EGFR-dependent ITGB4/FAK signaling and subsequent Akt and p38MAPK signaling pathways.
Target pathways The extrinsic/Fas/FasL pathway as well as the intrinsic/mitochondrial pathway ROS/JNK pathway Src/EGFR-dependent ITGB4/FAK signaling and subsequent Akt and p38MAPK signaling pathway
IC50 13.26 μM against MCF-7, 9.26 μM against MDA-MB-231
Potency Our findings may significantly contribute to the understanding of the anti-proliferative effect of ziyuglycoside II, in particular to breast carcinoma and provide novel insights into the potential application of such compound in breast cancer therapy.
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231
Additional information  Ziyuglycoside II could effectively induce G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis in both cell lines. Cell cycle blocking was associated with the down-regulation of Cdc25C, Cdc2, cyclin A and cyclin B1 as well as the up-regulation of p21/WAF1, phospho-Cdc25C and phospho-Cdc2. Ziyuglycoside II treatment also induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and apoptosis by activating the extrinsic/Fas/FasL pathway as well as the intrinsic/mitochondrial pathway.
