Abstract
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-tumor effects and mechanisms of Raddeanin A in NSCLC in vitro and in vivo.
Methods
The effects of Raddeanin A on cell cycle progression, proliferation, migration and invasion of NSCLC were assessed by flow cytometry and cell biological assays in multiple NSCLC cell lines. To identify possible targets of Raddeanin A in NSCLC, we employed a multifaceted approach incorporating network pharmacology, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation, along with additional techniques such as SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance), Co-IP (Co-Immunoprecipitation), and immunofluorescence. In vivo effects were investigated using a nude mouse xenograft tumor model.
Results
Raddeanin A inhibits NSCLC cell survival, inhibits invasion and migration and causes cell cycle arrest in G1 phase. Raddeanin A impacts NSCLC cellular activity by inhibiting CDK6, leading to anti-tumor effects. Molecular analysis confirms that the tight binding between Raddeanin A and CDK6, facilitated by specific hydrogen bonds at binding sites including VAL-101, HIS-100, GLN-149, LYS-147, THR-182, VAL-180, and ALA-23, stabilizes within the 40–100 ns interval. In a nude mouse xenograft tumor model, Raddeanin A also demonstrated an inhibitory effect on NSCLC tumor growth.
Conclusions
Raddeanin A blocks the cell cycle in G1 phase by inhibiting CDK6. Raddeanin A is expected to be a novel antitumor agent against NSCLC.
