Abstract
In this study, based on Walker 256 in vitro experiments, CCK-8 assay, clone formation assay, wound healing assay, and flow cytometry were used to detect cell apoptosis and cell cycle. It was found that schisandrin may have significant anti-tumor effects in vitro by inhibiting TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway. In addition, in vivo experiments, immunohistochemistry was used to observe the expression of HIF-1α, VEGF and VEGFR-2 in tumor tissues. It was found that schisandrin could significantly improve the immunosuppression induced by 5-Fu and enhance the antitumor effect of 5-Fu. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of Wnt-1/β-catenin signaling pathway.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Asian Natural Products Research (JANPR) publishes chemical and pharmaceutical studies in the English language in the field of natural product research on Asian ethnic medicine. The journal publishes work from scientists in Asian countries, e.g. China, Japan, Korea and India, including contributions from other countries concerning natural products of Asia. The journal is chemistry-orientated. Major fields covered are: isolation and structural elucidation of natural constituents (including those for non-medical uses), synthesis and transformation (including biosynthesis and biotransformation) of natural products, pharmacognosy, and allied topics. Biological evaluation of crude extracts are acceptable only as supporting data for pure isolates with well-characterized structures.
All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two expert referees.
