Effects of thonningianin A in natural foods on apoptosis and cell cycle arrest of HepG-2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cells.[Pubmed: 26119846]

Food Funct. 2015 Aug;6(8):2588-97.


METHODS AND RESULTS:
The anti-cancer activities of Thonningianin A on the HepG-2 human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line were evaluated by MTT assay, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting. Results showed that Thonningianin A effectively inhibited the proliferation of HepG-2 cells by inducing apoptosis, as evidenced by increase in the sub-G1 cell population, DNA fragmentation, and increase in the content of reactive oxygen species. Activation of caspase-9 and the subsequent activation of caspase-3 indicated that Thonningianin A-induced apoptosis is caspase-dependent. Thonningianin A also disrupted the mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) and down-regulated the Bcl-xL mRNA expression in HepG-2 cells. Thonningianin A induced cell cycle arrest by changing the cyclin D1 and CDK4 mRNA expression levels. Moreover, western blotting showed that Thonningianin A significantly down-regulated the NF-kappa-B cell survival pathway, along with up-regulation of the expression level of phosphorylated P38 and down-regulation of the expression level of phosphorylated ERK.
CONCLUSIONS:
The anti-cancer activity of Thonningianin A was confirmed by the characteristic patterns of DNA fragmentation and cell cycle arrest, suggesting that Th A is an effective antitumor ingredient in natural plant foods, and is worthy of further study.

Antioxidant properties of Thonningianin A, isolated from the African medicinal herb, Thonningia sanguinea.[Pubmed: 12007576]

Biochem Pharmacol. 2002 May 1;63(9):1725-37.

The antioxidant properties of Thonningianin A (Th A), an ellagitannin, isolated from the methanolic extract of the African medicinal herb, Thonningia sanguinea were studied using the NADPH and Fe2+/ascorbate-induced lipid peroxidation (LPO), electron spin resonance spectrometer and the deoxyribose assay.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Thonningianin A at 10 microM inhibited both the NADPH and Fe2+/ascorbate-induced LPO in rat liver microsomes by 60% without inhibitory effects on cytochrome P450 activity. Thonningianin A was similar to the synthetic antioxidant, tannic acid, as an inhibitor of both the NADPH and Fe2+/ascorbate-induced LPO but potent than gallic acid, vitamin C and vitamin E. While Thonningianin A poorly scavenged the hydroxyl radical generated by the Fenton reaction it dose-dependently scavenged 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, superoxide anion and peroxyl radicals with IC50 of 7.5, 10 and 30 microM, respectively. Furthermore, Thonningianin A showed inhibitory effects on the activity of xanthine oxidase with an IC50 of 30 microM. In the deoxyribose assay both T. sanguinea and its methanolic component Thonningianin A showed only site-specific (Fe3+ + H2O2) but not non-site-specific (Fe3+ + EDTA + H2O2) hydroxyl radical scavenging suggesting chelating ability for iron ions.
CONCLUSIONS:
Spectroscopic studies showed that Thonningianin A enhanced absorbance in the visible region in the presence of Fe2+ ions. These results indicate that the antioxidant properties of Thonningianin A involve radical scavenging, anti-superoxide formation and metal chelation.

Inhibition of glutathione S-transferases by thonningianin A, isolated from the African medicinal herb, Thonningia sanguinea, in vitro.[Pubmed: 15234070]

Food Chem Toxicol. 2004 Sep;42(9):1401-8.

There is evidence that increased expression of glutathione S-transferase (EC: 2.5.1.18, GST) is involved in resistance of tumor cells against chemotherapeutic agents. In this study we investigated the inhibitory effects of Thonningianin A (Th A), a novel antioxidant isolated from the medicinal herb, Thonningia sanguinea on uncharacterized rat liver GST and human GST P1-1.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Using 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) as substrate, rat liver cytosolic GST activity was inhibited by Thonningianin A in a concentration dependent manner with 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) of 1.1 microM. When Thonningianin A was compared with known potent GST inhibitors the order of inhibition was tannic acid>cibacron blue>hematin>Th A>ethacrynic acid with CDNB as substrate. Thonningianin A also exhibited non-competitive inhibition towards both CDNB and glutathione. Furthermore, using 1,2-dichloro-4-nitrobenzene, ethacrynic acid and 1,2-epoxy-3-(p-nitrophenoxy) propane as substrates Thonningianin A at 1.0 microM inhibited cytosolic GST by 2%, 12% and 36% respectively. Human GST P1-1 was also inhibited by Thonningianin A with an IC50 of 3.6 microM.
CONCLUSIONS:
While Thonningianin A showed competitive inhibition towards CDNB it exhibited non-competitive inhibition towards GSH of the human GST P1-1. These results suggest that Thonningianin A represents a new potent GST in vitro inhibitor.
