Bioactivity

−
In Vivo
Animal model: HepG2 xenograft model based on the male athymic BALB/c nude mice (5-6 weeks old, 18-22 g). Dosage: 5, 10, 20 mg/kg. Administration: Intravenous injection every 2 days. Result: The tumor growth rate was significantly slower in BigV treated groups in a dose-dependent manner, along with the reduced tumor weight. No significant alteration of body weight and hepatic enzyme levels (AST, ALT and LDH) in serum was observed after BigV administration.
In Vitro
Cell Viability Assay Cell line: HepG2 and SMMC-7721 cells. Concentration: 0-20 μM. Incubation time: 24, 48, 72 h. Result: Significantly reduced the cell viability of HepG2 and SMMC-7721 cells in a dose- and time dependent manner. No significant difference observed in cell viability of normal liver cell lines, LO2 and LX2, after BigV treatment for 24, 48 or 72 h. Western blot analysis. Cell line: HepG2 and SMMC-7721 cells. Concentration: 0-10 μM. Incubation time: 24 h. Result: The expression of Bcl-2 was decreased, whereas Bax was increased after treatment with BigV. Moreover, Caspase-9, -3 and PARP cleavage were activated significantly after BigV treatment.
