Cinobufagin, a kind of Chinese materia medica with antitumor effect, is widely used in clinical practice, especially in anti-liver cancer. IC50 value: Target: In vitro: Cinobufagin inhibited proliferation of cancer cells at doses of 0.1, 1, or 10 μM after 2–4 days of culture. Cytotoxicity of cinobufagin on the DU145 and LNCaP cells was dose-dependent. Cinobufagin increased [Ca2+]i and apoptosis in cancer cells after a 24-hr culture as well as caspase 3 activities in DU145 and PC3 cells and caspase 9 activities in LNCaP cells [1]. Cinobufagin suppresses cell proliferation and causees apoptosis in prostate cancer cells via a sequence of apoptotic modulators, including Bax, cytochrome c and caspases [2]. In vivo:
