Bufalin, a naturally occurring small-molecule compound from Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Chansu showed inhibitory effects against human prostate, hepatocellular, endometrial and ovarian cancer cells, and leukemia cells.
However, whether or not bufalin has inhibitory activity against the proliferation of human non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
cells is unclear. The aim of this study is to study the effects of bufalin on the proliferation of NSCLC and its molecular
mechanisms of action. The cancer cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay. The apoptosis and cell cycle distribution were
analyzed by flow cytometry. The protein expressions and phosphorylation in the cancer cells were detected by Western blot
analysis. In the present study, we have demonstrated that bufalin suppressed the proliferation of human NSCLC A549 cell line
in time- and dose-dependent manners. Bufalin induced the apoptosis and cell cycle arrest by affecting the protein expressions
of Bcl-2/Bax, cytochrome c, caspase-3, PARP, p53, p21WAF1, cyclinD1, and COX-2 in A549 cells. In addition, bufalin reduced the protein levels of receptor
expressions and/or phosphorylation of VEGFR1, VEGFR2, EGFR and/or c-Met in A549 cells. Furthermore, bufalin inhibited the
protein expressions and phosphorylation of Akt, NF-κB, p44/42 MAPK (ERK1/2) and p38 MAPK in A549 cells. Our results suggest that bufalin inhibits the human lung cancer cell proliferation
via VEGFR1/VEGFR2/EGFR/c-Met–Akt/p44/42/p38-NF-κB signaling pathways; bufalin may have a wide therapeutic and/or adjuvant therapeutic application in the treatment of human
NSCLC. 相似文献

The bufadienolide bufalin, a component of the Chinese medicine chan'su, has been reported to selectively inhibit the growth of various lines of human cancer cells, due at least in part to its specific effect on topoisomerase (topo) II. We have treated Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with doses of bufalin that result in a dramatic reduction in both the level and catalytic activity of topo II without any concomitant induction of DNA damage, as assessed by the comet assay. When cells were pre-treated with bufalin and then irradiated with X-rays, a follow-up study revealed that the kinetics of DNA repair was clearly affected, with a general delay in the restoration of DNA to the situation observed in non-irradiated controls. The possible involvement of topo II in radiation damage repair is discussed. 相似文献
