Rubone

SKU: orb1702848

Description

Rubone is a natural chalcone that upregulates miR-34a expression in a p53-dependent manner, leading to the downregulation of oncogenic targets like Bcl-2 and cyclin-D1. This activity inhibits tumor cell proliferation and has demonstrated efficacy in reversing chemoresistance in prostate cancer and suppressing hepatocellular carcinoma growth in preclinical models.

Bioactivity

In Vivo
Methods: Rubone (20, 50 mg/kg, gavage, once every two days, 24 days) was used to treat HepG2 xenograft nude mice. Tumor volume and body weight were measured every 2 days. Mice were sacrificed and tumor tissues were collected for subsequent RNA extraction or tissue sections were sliced ​​and the expression levels of pri-miR34a, miR34a, cyclin D1, and Bcl-2 in xenograft tumors were measured by qRT-PCR. Results: Rubone delayed tumor growth by 78.27% and 89.64% at doses of 20 and 50 mg/kg, respectively. Pri-miR34a and miR34a levels were upregulated in mouse xenograft tumors, while cyclin D1 and Bcl-2, which are targeted by miR34a, were downregulated.
In Vitro
Methods: DU145-TXR and PC3-TXR cells were treated with Rubone (5, 10 μM, 48 hours) and protein expression was measured. Results: Rubone significantly reversed the expression of miR-34a downstream gene targets in DU145-TXR and PC3-TXR cell lines.
