Biological Activity of Kurarinone

DescriptionKurarinone exhibits anti-tumor, estrogenic, and anti-inflammatory activities, it also shows strong inhibitory effect on immune responses. Kurarinone may ameliorate chronic inflammatory skin diseases through the suppression of pathogenic CD4(+) T-cell differentiation and the overall immune response. Kurarinone sensitizes TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced tumor cell apoptosis via suppression of NF-κB-dependent cFLIP expression; it may be by way of down-regulating Smad3 expression to interfere its induction on intercellular signal transduction and consequently ameliorate renal interstitial fibrosis.

Estrogenic and anticarcinogenic properties of kurarinone, a lavandulyl flavanone from the roots of Sophora flavescens.[Pubmed: 15568770 ]

J. Nat.Prod., 2004, 67(11):1829-32.

Kurarinone, a lavandulyl flavanone, was isolated from a polyphenolic extract of the roots of Sophora flavescens using fractionation guided by estrogenic activity, which was determined by recombinant yeast and Ishikawa Var-I bioassays.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Kurarinone showed weak estrogenic activity both in the yeast screen and in the Ishikawa Var-I assay with EC(50) values of 4.6 and 1.66 microM, respectively. Furthermore, Kurarinone was found to have potent cytotoxic activity (IC(50) value = 22.2 microM) against human MCF-7/6 breast cancer cells in the sulforhodamine-B assay.

In vivo

Kurarinone regulates immune responses through regulation of the JAK/STAT and TCR-mediated signaling pathways.[Pubmed: 23333426 ]

Biochem. Pharmacol., 2013, 85(8):1134-44.

Sophora flavescens is a medicinal herb that contains flavonoids and quinolizidine alkaloids and has a wide range of biological activities due to its anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-cancer properties. We isolated a series of flavonoids from the roots of Sophora flavescens and examined their ability to inhibit immune responses.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Among the flavonoids, Kurarinone exhibited the strongest inhibitory effect on immune responses. Kurarinone suppressed the differentiation of CD4(+) T cells by inhibiting the expression and production of T-cell lineage-specific master regulators and cytokines. Our results also demonstrated that Kurarinone directly suppressed the cytokine-induced Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) signaling and T-cell receptor (TCR) pathways. In two established animal models of chronic inflammatory skin disease, one in which psoriasis-like skin disease was induced by an interleukin 23 (IL-23) injection into mouse ears and another in which 2,4,6-trinitrochlorobenzene (TNCB) application on the abdomens of mice was used to induce contact dermatitis, Kurarinone repressed disease development by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory mediators, including cytokines, chemokines and enzyme in murine ear skin.
CONCLUSIONS:
This study provides new evidence that Kurarinone may ameliorate chronic inflammatory skin diseases through the suppression of pathogenic CD4(+) T-cell differentiation and the overall immune response.

Protocol of Kurarinone

Kinase Assay

Kurarinone promotes TRAIL-induced apoptosis by inhibiting NF-κB-dependent cFLIP expression in HeLa cells.[Pubmed: 22932446 ]

Exp. Mol. Med., 2012, 44(11): 653-64.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of the prenylated flavonoid Kurarinone on TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced apoptosis and its underlying mechanism.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
A low dose of Kurarinone had no significant effect on apoptosis, but this compound markedly promoted tumor cell death through elevation of Bid cleavage, cytochrome c release release and caspase activation in HeLa cells treated with TRAIL. Caspase inhibitors inhibited Kurarinone-mediated cell death, which indicates that the cytotoxic effect of this compound is mediated by caspase-dependent apoptosis. The cytotoxic effect of Kurarinone was not associated with expression levels of Bcl-2 and IAP family proteins, such as Bcl-2, Bcl-xL, Bid, Bad, Bax, XIAP, cIAP-1 and cIAP-2. In addition, this compound did not regulate the death-inducing receptors DR4 and DR5. On the other hand, Kurarinone significantly inhibited TRAIL-induced IKK activation, IκB degradation and nuclear translocation of NF-κB, as well as effectively suppressed cellular FLICE-inhibitory protein long form (cFLIPL) expression. The synergistic effects of Kurarinone on TRAIL-induced apoptosis were mimicked when Kurarinone was replaced by the NF-κB inhibitor withaferin A or following siRNA-mediated knockdown of cFLIPL. Moreover, cFLIP overexpression effectively antagonized Kurarinone-mediated TRAIL sensitization.
CONCLUSIONS:
These data suggest that Kurarinone sensitizes TRAIL-induced tumor cell apoptosis via suppression of NF-κB-dependent cFLIP expression, indicating that this compound can be used as an anti-tumor agent in combination with TRAIL.
