Ganoderma lucidum (G. lucidum) is a famous medicinal fungus used as a traditional medicine for generations in China. Among bioactivities that G. lucidum possesses, the anti-tumor effect has aroused extensive interests. In this study, one new triterpene (1) was isolated from 90% ethanol extract of the dried fruiting bodies of G. lucidum. Its structure was determined based on the analysis of its spectroscopic data, including 1 D and 2 D NMR and MS spectra. Furthermore, 1 elicited moderate anti-tumor activities (IC50 values of 15.38 ± 0.34 and 18.61 ± 0.55 μM for A549 and HepG2 cells, respectively) compared with cisplatin which was employed as the positive drug with IC50 values of 8.21 ± 0.17 and 5.36 ± 0.29 μM for A549 and HepG2 cells, respectively. The mechanism study by RT-qPCR and western blot analysis suggested that the p53/caspase-3 pathway is involved in the 1-induced apoptosis.

D002945 Cisplatin An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
