Bufotalin is a natural cardiotonic steroid derived from toad secretions [1]. Bufotalin inhibits Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase and induces apoptosis of cancer cells [2]. Bufotalin has potent anti-tumor and cardiotonic effects [3-4].
In R-HepG2 cells, treatment with a relatively low concentrations of Bufotalin (0.05μM, 0.125μM; 24h, 48h) induced a remarkable G2/M arrest [5]. In A375 cells, Bufotalin (10-80ng/mL; 24h) significantly inhibited cell proliferation [6]. In MDA-MB-231 cells, Bufotalin (1-10μM; 72h) inhibits the proliferation of cells in a dose-dependent manner [7].
In bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis mice model, Bufotalin (1mg/kg, 2mg/kg; ip; 7d) reduces lung injury, inflammation, and fibrosis, and protects lung function [8]. In Sjögren’s syndrome (ESS) murine model, Bufotalin (10μg/kg; iv; twice a week for 7 weeks) inhibits Th17 polarization and secretion of cytokines IL-17 and IFN-γ [9]. In mice bearing U251 cell xenografts, Bufotalin (1mg/kg, 2mg/kg, 5mg/kg; ip; 14d) treatment resulted in a significant dose-dependent decrease in tumor volume and weight [10].

Bufotalin是一种天然的强心类固醇,来源于蟾蜍分泌物 [1]。Bufotalin可抑制Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase并诱导癌细胞凋亡 [2]。Bufotalin具有强效的抗肿瘤和强心作用 [3-4]。
在R-HepG2细胞中,较低浓度的Bufotalin(0.05μM、0.125μM;24h、48h)处理可诱导显著的G2/M期阻滞 [5]。在A375细胞中,Bufotalin(10-80ng/mL;24h)显著抑制细胞增殖 [6]。在MDA-MB-231细胞中,Bufotalin(1-10μM;72h)以剂量依赖性方式抑制细胞增殖 [7]。
在博来霉素诱导的肺纤维化小鼠模型中,Bufotalin(1mg/kg、2mg/kg;ip;7d)可减轻肺损伤、炎症和纤维化,并保护肺功能 [8]。在干燥综合征(ESS)小鼠模型中,Bufotalin(10μg/kg;iv;每周两次,持续7周)可抑制Th17极化以及细胞因子IL-17和IFN-γ的分泌 [9]。在携带U251细胞异种移植的小鼠中,Bufotalin(1mg/kg、2mg/kg、5mg/kg;ip;14d)治疗导致肿瘤体积和重量显著剂量依赖性下降 [10]。
Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | R-HepG2 cells |
Preparation Method | Cell cycle distribution of R-HepG2 cells after Bufotalin treat ment was detected by flow cytometry. Briefly, R-HepG2 cells (about 6 × 105/well) were collected and fixed in 70% ethanol at 4℃ overnight. Before analysis, cells were centrifuged at 2500rpm for 3min to remove the ethanol. Then, cells were suspended in 500mL phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) containing 0.02mg/mL propidium iodide (PI) and 0.1mg/mL Ribonuclease A (RNase A) in darkness at 37℃ for 30min. Fluorescence emitted from PI-DNA complexes was measured by Epics XL flow cytometry. |
Reaction Conditions | 0.05μM, 0.125μM; 24h, 48h |
Applications | Cell cycle analysis showed that treatment with a relatively low concentrations of Bufotalin induced a remarkable G2/M arrest in R-HepG2 cells. |
Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Bleomycin (BLM)-induced lung fibrosis mice model |
Preparation Method | Male C57BL/6 mice (6 weeks old, average weight approximately 22g) were housed in a standard environment which was characterized by 12h light/dark cycle, 22-25℃, and 40–60% humidity with free access to water and chow. A BLM-induced lung fibrosis model was performed. Firstly, a total of thirty-five mice were randomly divided into five groups: (i) sham control group; (ii) vehicle group; (iii) Bufotalin (1mg/kg) group; (iv) Bufotalin (2mg/kg) group; (v) positive control [pirfenidone (PFD, 30mg/kg)] group. Then, mice were anesthetized with 1% pentobarbital sodium (50mg/kg) by intraperitoneal injection and intratracheally administered 3mg/kg BLM in 50μL of sterile saline. Mice administered the same volume of sterile saline served as sham controls. From day 7 after BLM administration, mice were treated with Bufotalin, PFD, or their vehicle (15% PEG400 and 15% tween 80 saline solution) by intraperitoneal injection every day for 14 consecutive days. Finally, the mice were sacrificed 21 days post-BLM challenge. |
Dosage form | 1mg/kg, 2mg/kg; ip; 7d |
