Cyclovirobuxine D (also known as CVB-D or Bebuxine) is a naturally occurring and bioactive substance that was isolated from the Buxus microphylla and has been used to treat acute myocardial ischemia. The human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 may be induced to undergo autophagy by the alkaloid cyclovirobuxine D, which is found in a traditional Chinese herb. In rats with experimental myocardial injury brought on by sympathetic overactivity, it has a preventing effect against oxidative stress and energy metabolism. Additionally, Cyclovirobuxine D helps treat heart failure brought on by myocardial infarction, which supports its potential as a new treatment for heart failure.
| Targets |
Natural alkaloid; autophagy; Akt; mTOR[1] Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, autophagy-related proteins (LC3, p62), apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2, Bax) [1] - Mitochondrial apoptotic pathway-related proteins (Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3, caspase-9, PARP) (IC50: ~35 μM for SGC-7901 cells; ~42 μM for MGC-803 cells at 72 hours) [2] - Myocardial function-related targets, oxidative stress-related enzymes (SOD, MDA), myocardial apoptotic proteins (Bcl-2, Bax)[3] |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Only 10% of MGC-803 cells and 20% of MKN28 cells survived 72 hours after treatment with cyclobuxine D (0-240 µM; 24-72 hours) due to a concentration- and time-dependent decrease in cell viability following CVB-D therapy[2]. Gastric cancer cells' cell cycle is stopped in the S phase in a concentration-dependent manner by cyclobuxine D (0-120 µM; 48 hours) [2]. Cyclovirobuxine D (0-120 µM; 48 hours) induces concentration-dependent apoptosis in gastric cancer cells, particularly early apoptosis. In gastric cancer cells, cyclobuxine D (0-120 µM; 48 hours) induces apoptosis via upregulating cleaved Caspase-3, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and other apoptosis-related proteins [2].
In human breast cancer MCF-7 cells, Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) (20-80 μM) induced autophagy-associated cell death in a dose-dependent manner. It inhibited Akt and mTOR phosphorylation, upregulated LC3-II/LC3-I ratio, and downregulated p62 expression. It also suppressed cell proliferation with an IC50 of ~40 μM at 72 hours, and induced mild apoptosis (12-18% apoptotic rate at 60 μM) [1] - In human gastric cancer cells (SGC-7901, MGC-803), Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) (10-60 μM) inhibited proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner (IC50: ~35 μM for SGC-7901; ~42 μM for MGC-803 at 72 hours). It triggered mitochondria-mediated apoptosis by downregulating Bcl-2, upregulating Bax, activating caspase-3 and caspase-9, and cleaving PARP. It also reduced clone formation efficiency (inhibition rate ~55% at 40 μM for SGC-7901) [2] |
| ln Vivo |
The effect of Cyclovirobuxine D, an active ingredient from Buxus microphylla, was investigated in the potential prevention of cardiac dysfunction in rats with congestive heart failure. Heart failure was induced by left coronary artery occlusion and verified using echocardiography. Cyclovirobuxine D was administered for 30 days (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0mg/kg, ig) and mortality, cardiac function, hemodynamics, microcirculation, histology and ultrastructure assessments were observed. Results from the present study suggest that Cyclovirobuxine D is beneficial for heart failure induced by myocardial infarction and supports the potential for Cyclovirobuxine D as a new therapy for heart failure.[3]
In rats with heart failure following myocardial infarction, oral administration of Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg, once daily for 4 weeks) improved cardiac function. It increased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by ~18%, ~25%, and ~32% respectively, reduced left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), and alleviated myocardial fibrosis. It also inhibited myocardial cell apoptosis by upregulating Bcl-2 and downregulating Bax, and reduced oxidative stress (increased SOD activity, decreased MDA content) in myocardial tissues [3] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Akt/mTOR kinase activity assay: Recombinant Akt and mTOR kinases were incubated with ATP, specific peptide substrates, and Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) (0-80 μM) at 37°C for 45 minutes. Phosphorylated substrates were detected by ELISA, and kinase inhibition rates were calculated [1]
- Caspase-3/caspase-9 activity assay: Cell lysates from CVB-D-treated gastric cancer cells were incubated with caspase-specific fluorescent substrates at 37°C for 1 hour. Fluorescence intensity was measured to quantify caspase activation [2] - SOD/MDA activity assay: Myocardial tissue homogenates from CVB-D-treated rats were prepared. SOD activity was detected by xanthine oxidase method, and MDA content was measured by thiobarbituric acid reaction method [3] |

Breast cancer cell assay: MCF-7 cells were seeded in 96-well plates and treated with Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) (0-80 μM) for 24-72 hours. Cell viability was detected by MTT assay; autophagy was observed by immunofluorescence staining of LC3 puncta; autophagy- and pathway-related proteins (Akt, p-Akt, mTOR, p-mTOR, LC3, p62) were analyzed by Western blot; apoptosis was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining [1] - Gastric cancer cell assay: SGC-7901/MGC-803 cells were treated with Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) (0-60 μM) for 48-72 hours. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay; clone formation assay was performed by seeding cells in 6-well plates and culturing for 14 days after CVB-D treatment; apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry; Bcl-2, Bax, caspase-3, caspase-9, and PARP expression was analyzed by Western blot [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Effect of CVB-D on survival rate[3]
In the vehicle group, four rats died during the treatment period and the survival rate was 66.7%. The survival rate for the captopril and CVB-D (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg, ig) groups was 83.33%, 75.0%, 75.0% and 83.33% respectively. None of the sham-operated rats died during the experimental timeframe. The cause of death included acute heart failure, bleeding, serious arrhythmia, and respiratory failure. Myocardial infarction-induced heart failure model: Rats were subjected to left anterior descending coronary artery ligation to induce myocardial infarction. One week after surgery, rats were randomly divided into control and Cyclovirobuxin D (CVB-D) treatment groups. CVB-D was dissolved in normal saline and administered by oral gavage at 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, or 40 mg/kg once daily for 4 weeks. Cardiac function (LVEF, LVEDV) was evaluated by echocardiography. Rats were sacrificed after treatment, and myocardial tissues were collected for histological (HE staining, Masson staining) and molecular biological analysis [3] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The oral LD50 for mice was 293 mg/kg. In vitro experiments showed that cycloverobuxin D (CVB-D) at concentrations up to 80 μM had no significant cytotoxicity to normal mammary epithelial cells (MCF-10A) and normal gastric mucosal cells (GES-1) [1][2]. In vivo experiments showed that oral administration of cycloverobuxin D (CVB-D) (up to 40 mg/kg for 4 weeks) to rats with heart failure did not cause significant changes in body weight, organ index, or serum ALT/AST/creatinine levels [3].

Cyclovirobuxine D has been reported in Buxus microphylla and Buxus sempervirens, and available data are available. Cyclovistacin D (CVB-D) is an alkaloid isolated from the leaves and stems of Buxus microphylla Sieb. et al. Zook. Rehd. et al. Wells. [1][2][3] - Its antitumor effect in breast cancer cells is achieved by inhibiting the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway to induce autophagy-related cell death. [1] - In gastric cancer cells, it exerts antitumor activity through the mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis pathway (Bcl-2/Bax-caspase-PARP). [2] - It improves cardiac function in patients with heart failure after myocardial infarction by inhibiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis, reducing oxidative stress, and alleviating myocardial fibrosis.
