Abstract:
AIM: To isolate three kinds of bufadienolides composition from Venenum bufonis in order to investigate their antitumor activity in vitro.METHODS: Alcohol extraction and isolation by Silica gel colume were employed in this study.Their antitumor activities in vitro were evaluated by MTT colorimetric method.RESULTS: With such methods,three kinds of bufadienolides,including Bufalin,cinobufagin,and resibufogenin with purity above 90% were prepared.The in-vitro results showed that three kinds of bufadienolides had prominent inhibition effect on human lung cancer A549 cells,human breast cancer MDA-MB-435 cells in the range of 0.001 ?g/mL ~ 100 ?g/mL.CONCLUSION: Isolation by Silica gel colume can be used to separate three kinds of bufadienolides from Venenum bufonis and its constituents has prominent anti-cancer effects.
