Biological Activity

[Description]:

Emodic acid (NSC624610) is an anthraquinone compound isolated from A. microcarpus, which can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells by inhibiting the activity of NF-κB. Emodic acid can also inhibit the phosphorylation of p38, ERK and JNK, the secretion of tumor-promoting cytokines IL-1β and IL-6, and the expression of VEGF and MMP, thereby inhibiting the invasion and migration potential of cancer cells[1].

[In Vitro]

Emodic acid(0-100 μM, 72 h)表现出很强的抗增殖活性，在小鼠乳腺癌 4T1、MDA-231 和 MCF-7 细胞系中 IC50 值分别为 9.33、8.56、7.95 μM[1]。 Emodic acid (50 μM, 24 h)在 4T1 细胞系中，可以显著抑制 NF-κB 转录活性 80.75%，抑制 p65 的磷酸化，抑制 MMP-9 mRNA 的表达[1]。 Emodic acid(50 μM, 24 h) 可以抑制促肿瘤细胞因子 IL-1β 和 IL-6 的分泌，以及 VEGF 和 MMP 的表达，进而抑制 4T1 细胞的侵袭和迁移能力[1]。
