Isorhamnetin is a flavonoid compound extracted from the Chinese herb Hippophae rhamnoides L.. Isorhamnetin suppresses skin cancer through direct inhibition of MEK1 and PI3K.
体外研究
Isorhamnetin is a plant flavonoid that occurs in fruits and medicinal herbs. Isorhamnetin binds directly to MEK1 in an ATP-noncompetitive manner and to PI3-K in an ATP-competitive manner. In vitro and ex vivo kinase assay data show that Isorhamnetin inhibits the kinase activity of MAP/ERK kinase (MEK) 1 and PI3-K and the inhibition is due to direct binding with Isorhamnetin. Isorhamnetin inhibits the Akt/mTOR and MEK/ERK signaling pathways, and promotes the activity of the mitochondrial apoptosis signaling pathway. The inhibitory effects of Isorhamnetin on breast cancer cells are determined using the CCK-8 method. Isorhamnetin inhibits the proliferation of numerous breast cancer cells (IC50, ~10 µM), including MCF7, T47D, BT474, BT-549, MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468, whereas less inhibitory activity is observed in the MCF10A normal breast epithelial cell line (IC50, 38 µM).

Photographic data shows that Isorhamnetin treatment suppresses tumor development in mice. The average volume of tumors in untreated mice increases over time and reaches a volume of 623 mm at 4 weeks post-inoculation; however, at this time, in mice treated with 1 or 5 mg/kg Isorhamnetin, the average tumor volume is only 280 or 198 mm, respectively. At the end of the study, Isorhamnetin treatment (1 or 5 mg/kg) reduces tumor weight compared with the untreated control group.
