Ganoderenic Acid D, a naturally occurring triterpene found in Ganoderma lucidum extract (GLE), is the major active component of Ganoderma lucidum, and acts by inhibiting the growth of numerous cancer cell lines by inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
| Targets |
In silico drug target searching (INVDOCK) suggested that Ganoderic acid D (GAD) can bind to six isoforms of the 14-3-3 protein family, annexin A5, and aminopeptidase B. Furthermore, the direct binding affinity of GAD to 14-3-3 ζ was confirmed in vitro using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor analysis. Additionally, molecular docking studies have revealed potential binding to human tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE).
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Ganoderenic Acid D exhibits potent cytotoxicity against human carcinoma cell lines. It demonstrates IC₅₀ values of 0.14±0.01, 0.18±0.02, and 0.26±0.03 mg/mL in Hep G2, HeLa, and CaCo-2 cells, respectively. Furthermore, it inhibits LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in BV-2 microglia, with an IC₅₀ of 13.77 μM.
|
| ln Vivo |
The in vivo anti-cancer effects of Ganoderenic Acid D have been demonstrated in mouse models. A study using Hepa1-6-bearing C57 BL/6 mice provided experimental support for its anti-cancer pharmacological mechanisms. The compound can induce synergistic apoptosis and autophagic cell death by disrupting autophagic flux, thereby inhibiting cancer cell proliferation.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The direct binding between GAD and the target 14-3-3 ζ protein was verified using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor. In a typical protocol, the target protein (14-3-3 ζ) is immobilized on a sensor chip. A series of concentrations of GAD are then flowed over the chip surface, allowing real-time monitoring of binding kinetics via changes in the resonance angle.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cytotoxicity assays are performed in a time- and dose-dependent manner. HeLa cells are exposed to various concentrations of GAD (e.g., 1-50 μM) for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is then assessed using CCK-8 or MTT assays. Flow cytometry is used to analyze the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis rate, with DNA fragmentation analysis further confirming the induction of apoptosis.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo efficacy is studied using tumor-bearing mouse models. C57 BL/6 mice are subcutaneously inoculated with Hepa1-6 cells to establish a tumor model. Once the tumors reach a measurable size, the mice are treated with Ganoderenic Acid D or G. lucidum extract via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection. Tumor volume and body weight are measured regularly, and the animals are euthanized at the end of the experiment to evaluate tumor growth inhibition rates in the treatment group compared to the model control group.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
A pharmacokinetic study in rats after oral administration revealed that biliary rather than renal clearance is the major route of excretion for ganoderic acid D, indicating that its clearance is mediated significantly by hepatic metabolism and biliary elimination. Additionally, ADMET predictions for Ganoderenic Acid D give a logKp value of -7.98 cm/s and indicate "low" GI absorption.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity information is derived from in vitro cytotoxic assays and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). Ganoderenic Acid D is classified as a toxic substance, with acute hazards including "very toxic if swallowed" and risks of irritation to the skin and eyes. Prolonged exposure may pose a risk of serious damage to health. Personal protective equipment, including gloves, eyeshields, and N95 masks, is recommended when handling this compound.
