Abstract
|
|
|
Bioassay-directed fractionation and purification were used to isolate 12 steroids (1?12) from a CH2Cl2 extract of the edible Vietnamese sea urchin Diadema savignyi Michelin. The cytotoxic activity of the CH2Cl2 extract and 12 steroids was evaluated in three human cancer cell lines (HL-60, PC-3, and SNU-C5). Relative to the effects of the positive control, mitoxantrone, the CH2Cl2 extract (with an inhibitory concentration of 50% [IC50] values ranging from 1.37¡¾0.15 to 3.11¡¾0.15 ¥ìg/mL) and compounds 2 (with IC50 values ranging from 5.29¡¾0.11 to 6.80¡¾0.67 ¥ìM) and 11 (with IC50 values ranging from 4.95¡¾0.07 to 6.99¡¾0.28 ¥ìM) exhibited potent cytotoxic effects against all three tested human cancer cell lines. In addition, the CH2Cl2 extract and compounds 2 and 11 were found to induce apoptosis. The induction of apoptosis was accompanied by alterations of the apoptosis-related protein expression, inactivation of ERK1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling, and decreased c-Myc expression. These data suggest that compounds 2 and 11 from the edible sea urchin D. savignyi may have potential for the treatment of colon cancer, leukemia, and prostate cancer as complementary cancer remedies.
