    Author: Wang J, Li Y, Zu XB, Chen MF, Qi L.
    Journal: Asian Pac J Trop Med; 2012 Dec; 5(12):973-6. PubMed ID: 23199717.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To explore the anti-tumor effects of asiatic moonseed rhizome extraction-dauricine on bladder cancer EJ cell strain, prostate cancer PC-3Mcell strain and primary cell culture system. METHODS: The main effective component-phenolic alkaloids ofMenispermum dauricum was extracted and separated from asiatic moonseed rhizome by chemical method. MTT method was used to detect dauricine anti-tumor effect. RESULTS: Dauricine had an obvious proliferation inhibition effect on the main tumor cells in urinary system. The minimum drug sensitivity concentration was between 3.81-5.15 μg/mL, and the inhibition ratio increased with the increase of concentration. CONCLUSIONS: Dauricine, the main effective component extracted from asiatic moonseed rhizome, had a good inhibition effect on tumor cells in urinary system. At the same time, Dauricine has certain inhibition effects on the primary cultured tumor cell.
