Effects of psoralens as anti-tumoral agents in breast cancer cells

This review examines the biological properties of coumarins, widely distributed at the highest levels in the fruit, followed by the roots, stems and leaves, by considering their beneficial effects in the prevention of some diseases and as anti-cancer agents. These compounds are well known photosensitizing drugs which have been used as pharmaceuticals for a broad number of therapeutic applications requiring cell division inhibitors. Despite this, even in the absence of ultraviolet rays they are active. The current paper mainly focuses on the effects of psoralens on human breast cancer as they are able to influence many aspects of cell behavior, such as cell growth, survival and apoptosis. In addition, analytical and pharmacological data have demonstrated that psoralens antagonize some metabolizing enzymes, affect estrogen receptor stability and counteract cell invasiveness as well as cancer drug resistance. The scientific findings summarized highlight the pleiotropic functions of phytochemical drugs, given that recently their target signals and how these are modified in thecells have been identified. The encouraging results in this field suggest that multiple modulating strategies based on coumarin drugs in combination with canonical chemotherapeutic agents or radiotherapy could be a useful approach to address the treatment of many types of cancer.

Psoralen inhibits hepatitis B viral replication by down-regulating the host transcriptional machinery of viral promoters

The hepatitis B virus(HBV) is a global public health challenge due to its highly contagious nature. It is estimated that almost 300 million people live with chronic HBV infection annually. Although nucleoside analogs markedly reduce the risk of liver disease progression, the analogs do not fully eradicate the virus. As such, new treatment options and drugs are urgently needed. Psoralen is a nourishing monomer of Chinese herb and is known to inhibit virus replication and inactivate viruses. In this study, we evaluated the potential of psoralen as an anti-HBV agent.Quantitative PCR and Southern blot analysis revealed that psoralen inhibited HBV replication in Hep G2.2.15 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Moreover, psoralen was also active against the 3TC/ETV-dual-resistant HBV mutant. Further investigations revealed that psoralen suppressed both HBV RNA transcription and core protein expression. The transcription factor FOXO1, a known target for PGC1α co-activation, binds to HBV precore/core promoter enhancer II region and activates HBV RNA transcription. Co-immunoprecipitation showed that psoralen suppressed the expression of FOXO1, thereby decreasing the binding of FOXO1 co-activator PGC1αto the HBV promoter. Overall, our results demonstrate that psoralen suppresses HBV RNA transcription by downregulating the expression of FOXO1 resulting in a reduction of HBV replication.

Determination of icariside,hyperoside and psoralen in food by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry

A high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)method was built to determine icarside,hyperoside and psoralen in food.The samples were extracted with 70%methanol,the solid and semi-solid hotpot seasoning samples were purified by solid phase extraction column,and then determined by HPLC-MS/MS.Acetonitrile and 0.1%formic acid solution were used as the mobile phase,and the gradient elution was adopted for analysis.As shown in the results,the analytes had good linearity in the range of 0.05−100 ng/mL,and the correlation coeffificients(R^(2))were greater than 0.999.In this method,the limits of quantitation(LOQ)of psoralen,icariside and hyperoside in liquid samples were 1.25,25.0 and 12.5μg/L respectively;while the LOQs of psoralen,icariside and hyperoside in solid samples and hotpot seasoning samples were 1.25,25.0 and 12.5μg/kg,respectively.The liquid beverage,solid beverage,health food(in the form of oral liquid,capsule,tablet),integrated alcoholic beverage and solid hotpot seasoning were selected as representative samples and used for method validation.The average spiked recoveries at 3 levels(LOQ,2 LOQ,10 LOQ)were in the range of 83.7%−115.0%,and the relative standard deviations were in range of 0.5%−9.4%(n=6).The method is rapid,accurate and sensitive,which is suitable for the simultaneous determination of icariside,hyperoside and psoralen in different food matrices.

Theoretical Study of Stability and Electronic Characteristics in Various Complexes of Psoralen as an Anticancer Drug in Gas Phase,Water and CCl_(4) Solutions

The present research employs density functional theory(DFT)computations to analyze the structure and energy of complexes formed by psoralen drug with alkali(Li^(+),Na^(+),K^(+))and alkaline earth(Be^(2+),Mg^(2+),Ca^(2+))metal cations.The computations are conducted on M06-2X/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory in the gas phase and solution.The Atoms in Molecules(AIM)and natural bond orbital(NBO)analyses are applied to evaluating the characterization of bonds and the atomic charge distribution,respectively.The results show that the absolute values of binding energies decrease with going from the gas phase to the solution.Furthermore,the considered complexes in the water(as a polar solvent)are more stable than the CCl_(4)(as a non-polar solvent).The DFT based chemical reactivity indices,such as molecular orbital energies,chemical potential,hardness and softness are also investigated.The outcomes show that the considered complexes have high chemical stability and low reactivity from the gas phase to the solution.Finally,charge density distributions and chemical reactive sites of a typical complex explored in this study are obtained by molecular electrostatic potential surface.
