Product Description
Arenobufagin is a bufasterene found in toad venom and has anti-cancer activity.
Arenobufagin (CAS 464-74-4) is a natural bufadienolide from toad venom with potent antineoplastic activity. It induces apoptosis and autophagy in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells through inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Arenobufagin exerts antitumor effects by inhibiting Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase activity and modulating signaling pathways such as PI3K/Akt and MAPK, leading to apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in cancer cells. It also inhibits angiogenesis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Arenobufagin targets multiple pathways involved in cancer cell survival and proliferation. It inhibits Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase activity and the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. It also modulates MAPK signaling, leading to apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Arenobufagin inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced viability, migration, invasion, and tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). It is also a VEGFR2 inhibitor.
ln Vitro
In vitro, arenobufagin inhibits the growth of HCC HepG2 cells as well as corresponding multidrug-resistant HepG2/ADM cells. It inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced viability, migration, invasion, and tube formation in HUVECs. Arenobufagin induces apoptosis and autophagy in hepatocellular carcinoma cells through indirect inhibition of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.
ln Vivo
In vivo, arenobufagin inhibits the growth of HepG2/ADM xenograft tumors. This is associated with poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage, light chain 3-II activation, and mTOR inhibition. These findings demonstrate the compound's in vivo antineoplastic activity against hepatocellular carcinoma. However, arenobufagin is also cardiotoxic, inhibiting cardiovascular Na⁺/K⁺ pumps.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for arenobufagin include measurement of its ability to inhibit Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase activity and VEGFR2. These cell-free assays use purified enzymes and measure the reduction in enzyme activity. The compound's inhibitory potency is determined from these assays. Its effects on PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling are typically assessed in cellular systems rather than cell-free assays.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for arenobufagin assess its antiproliferative, pro-apoptotic, and anti-angiogenic effects. Hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2 and HepG2/ADM) are treated with arenobufagin, and cell viability, apoptosis, and autophagy are assessed. HUVECs are used to assess anti-angiogenic effects, including inhibition of VEGF-induced viability, migration, invasion, and tube formation.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for arenobufagin have been conducted in mouse xenograft models using HepG2/ADM cells. Tumor-bearing mice are treated with arenobufagin, and tumor growth is monitored. Markers of apoptosis (PARP cleavage), autophagy (LC3-II activation), and mTOR inhibition are assessed in tumor tissues. These studies demonstrate the compound's in vivo antitumor efficacy.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Specific pharmacokinetic data for arenobufagin are not extensively detailed in the available literature. As a natural product, its oral bioavailability may be limited. However, its in vivo efficacy in xenograft models suggests that it reaches sufficient systemic concentrations to exert its effects. The compound's pharmacokinetic properties would be important for its development as a therapeutic agent.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Arenobufagin exhibits cardiotoxicity, inhibiting cardiovascular Na⁺/K⁺ pumps. This is a significant safety concern for its therapeutic use. Its toxicity profile is related to its mechanism of action, particularly its inhibition of Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase. Preclinical toxicology studies would be required to assess its safety margin. The compound is intended for research use only.
