Objective To study the effect of Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae (RSM), a kind of Chinese Traditional Medicine which can dissolve stasis by activating blood circulation, on proliferation, invasion, adhesion, migration and metastasis of B16-BL6 metastatic mouse melanoma cells and discuss its functional mechanism. Methods The proliferation, adhesion, invasion and migration capacity of B16-BL6 metastatic cells was evaluated by MTT assay, adhesion assay and reconstituted basement membrane invasion and migration assay in vitro respectively. Mouse spontaneous melanoma model was used to study the effect of RSM on metastasis in vivo. Results The extract of RSM bidirectionally adjusted the multiplication of B16-BL6 cells, promoted prominently the adhesion of B16-BL6 to Laminin, inhibited significantly B16-BL6 invading reconstituted basement membrane and the migration of B16-BL6. In the mouse spontaneous melanoma model, it suppressed significantly the volume of lung metastatic nodes but had little effect on the number of lung metastatic nodes. Conclusion The extract of RSM can alleviate the degree of the metastasis of B16-BL6 metastatic mouse melanoma cells, which may be related with inhibiting the B16-BL6 cells invading the extracellular matrix and reducing the migration of B16-BL6 cells.
