Treatment with Isosilybin B (10-90 μM) for 24 and 48 hours inhibited the growth of human prostate cancer LNCaP cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner, causing an 11-46% decrease in cell number. It also induced a slight but significant increase in cell death at 60 and 90 μM concentrations. [1]
In human prostate cancer 22Rv1 cells, Isosilybin B (10-90 μM) treatment for 24 and 48 hours caused a 7-66% decrease in cell number and a more pronounced increase in cell death (7-16% dead cells at 30-90 μM). [1] Isosilybin B induced a significant G1 phase cell cycle arrest in both LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells, accompanied by a decrease in S phase population. [1] Western blot analysis showed that Isosilybin B treatment decreased protein levels of cyclins (D1, D3, E, A), cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdk4, Cdk2), and Cdc25A in both cell lines. It increased the levels of p27 and p53 in both cell lines, but increased p21 only in LNCaP cells while decreasing it in 22Rv1 cells. [1] Isosilybin B induced apoptotic cell death, as evidenced by a 2-fold increase in apoptotic population in LNCaP cells and a 3- to 4-fold increase in 22Rv1 cells at 60-90 μM after 48 hours (Hoechst staining). [1] Consistent with apoptosis induction, Isosilybin B treatment increased cleavage of PARP, caspase-9, and caspase-3, and decreased the level of survivin in both LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells. [1] In non-neoplastic human prostate epithelial PWR-1E cells, Isosilybin B showed minimal effects on cell growth and viability at 24 hours, but caused a 25% decrease in cell number at 90 μM after 48 hours, suggesting a selective cytotoxicity against cancer cells. [1] An earlier study cited within this review reported an IC50 of 20.5 μM for Isosilybin B in human prostate carcinoma DU145 cells. [1] |

| Cell Assay |
For cell growth and death assays, LNCaP, 22Rv1, and PWR-1E cells were plated at 40-50% confluency and treated with Isosilybin B (10-90 μM, dissolved in DMSO, final DMSO ≤0.1%) in complete medium for 24 or 48 hours. After treatment, both adherent and non-adherent cells were collected by trypsinization, washed, and counted using a hemocytometer. Cell viability was determined by trypan blue exclusion. [1]
For cell cycle analysis, cells treated with Isosilybin B were collected, suspended in a saponin/PI solution containing propidium iodide and RNase A, incubated overnight at 4°C, and analyzed by flow cytometry to determine DNA content and cell cycle distribution. [1] For apoptosis analysis (Hoechst assay), cells treated with Isosilybin B were collected, stained with DNA-binding dyes Hoechst 33342 and propidium iodide, and apoptotic cells (characteristic nuclear morphology) were quantified by counting under a fluorescence microscope. [1] For western blot analysis, cells treated with Isosilybin B were lysed in a non-denaturing lysis buffer. Equal amounts of protein (50-70 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose membranes, blocked, and probed with specific primary antibodies against target proteins (cyclins, CDKs, CDKIs, p53, cleaved caspases, PARP, survivin). Proteins were detected using peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies and an ECL system. Blots were stripped and reprobed with β-actin or tubulin antibodies for loading normalization. [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
Isosilybin B has been reported in Anastatica hierochuntica and Silybum marianum, and relevant data are available. See also: Milk thistle (partial). Isosilybin B is a diastereomer of a flavonoid lignan isolated from silybin (silybin is an extract of milk thistle (Silybum marianum)). It accounts for approximately 2-4.5% (w/w) of silybin. [1] Its anti-prostate cancer activity mechanism involves inducing G1 phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. This arrest is associated with downregulation of G1/S phase promoting proteins (cyclins D1, D3, E, A; Cdk4, Cdk2; Cdc25A) and upregulation of CDK inhibitors (p27 and p21 in LNCaP cells). Apoptosis is associated with increased p53 levels, caspase (-9 and -3) activation, PARP cleavage, and downregulation of the anti-apoptotic protein survivin. [1] This study suggests that isosilymarin B and its isoform isosilymarin A may have different cellular targets and potencies due to stereochemical differences. [1]
