Bufothionine
Bufothionine is an alkaloid. Bufothionine can be isolated from Cinobufacini. Bufothionine induces mitochondria-mediated Apoptosis. Bufothionine significantly reduces serum IL-6 concentration, suppresses p-Stat3tyr705, p-Stat3ser727 and Jak2 expressions. Bufothionine upregulates Atg5, Atg7 and LC3Ⅱ expressions. Bufothionine induces Autophagy. Bufothionine suppresses PIM3 expression. Bufothionine relieves symptoms of H22-tumor-bearing mice and exerts anti-inflammation activity. Bufothionine exerts anti-cancer activities against gastric cancer.
