Abstract

Principal rotenoids (deguelin, tephrosin, rotenone, and 12a-hydroxyrotenone) (3-30microM) isolated from the stems of Erycibe expansa significantly inhibited invasion of human fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells through Matrigel-coated filters and release of proMMPs-2 and 9. In addition, deguelin and tephrosin showed differentiation-inducing activity in human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. Furthermore, effects of various constituents isolated from the ethyl acetate-soluble fraction on proliferation of human leukemia U937 cells were examined. As a result, most of Isoflavones and several flavans as well as rotenoids showed moderate or substantial anti-proliferative activities.
