Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Solamargine is a glycoalkaloid that has been found in S. lycocarpum and has anticancer activity. It decreases viability of H1650, H1975, PC-9, A549, and H1299 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Solamargine increases ERK1/2 phosphorylation and decreases the expression of DNA methyltranferase 1 (DNMT1) in H1299 and A549 cells. It reduces tumor growth and increases ERK1/2 phosphorylation and reduces the expression of the prostaglandin E2 receptor, DNMT1, and c-Jun in tumor tissue.

Product Data
Biological target:
Solamargine at 6 µM reduces viability in various non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells (H1650, H1975, PC-9, A549, H1299). In H1299 and A549 cells, it increases ERK1/2 phosphorylation and decreases DNMT1 expression. In an A549 mouse xenograft model, a daily dose of solamargine at 8 mg/kg reduces tumor growth. In tumor tissue, solamargine increases ERK1/2 phosphorylation and decreases the expression of prostaglandin E2 receptor, DNMT1, and c-Jun.
In vitro activity:
The results of this study indicate that SM inhibited the viability and promoted the apoptosis of ACHN and 786-O cells, through a mechanism involving downregulation of p-STAT3 expression. Treatment of ACHN and 786-O cells with SM significantly enhanced the caspase-3, -8, and -9 activities. SM downregulated the expression of p-STAT3 and Bcl-2 but increased the expression of cleaved caspase-3, -8, -9 and Bax.

In vivo activity:
Solamargine may have therapeutic potential in cancer therapy with no apparent toxic effects. Solamargine, at doses of 5 or 10 mg/kg/day administered subcutaneously to male C57BL/6 mice for 5 days, decreased melanoma tumor size and frequency of mitoses in tumor tissue, indicative of a decrease in cell proliferation. There were no apparent signs of systemic toxicity, nephrotoxicity, and genotoxicity initiated by treatments either with solamargine alone or plant alkaloid incorporated into nanoparticles.
