Bufalin is a Na+/K+-ATPase inhibitor (α1: Kd = 42.5nM; α2: Kd = 45nM; α3: Kd = 40nM) [1]. Bufalin primarily inhibits the activity of Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase on cell membranes, leading to elevated intracellular calcium concentrations [2]. Bufalin induction of apoptosis and inhibition of tumor cell proliferation can also have multiple anti-tumor mechanisms, including triggering autophagy and inhibiting tumor angiogenesis [3]. Bufalin is used to treat various tumors, including liver cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and leukemia [4].
In NCI-H640 cells, after treatment with Bufalin (1μM, 2μM, 4μM; 24h), the activity of cells decreased significantly [5]. In Ishikawa, SK-OV-3 and OMC-3 ovarian cancer cells, Bufalin (0.1-10ng/mL; 48h) can inhibit the proliferation of endometrial and ovarian cancer cells [6]. In human RCC ACHN cells, Bufalin (0-80nM; 12-72h) suppresses the proliferation and metastasis of renal cell carcinoma by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway [7].
In carrageenan-induced paw edema rat model, after Bufalin (0.15mg/kg, 0.3mg/kg, 0.6mg/kg; ip; single injection) treatmentthe, volume of paw edema in rats was significantly reduced [8]. In HCCLM3 cell metastatic orthotopic tumor mouse model, orthotopic transplanted tumor tissues undergo necrosis and apoptosis induced by Bufalin (1mg/kg, 1.5mg/kg; ip; 30d) treatment [9].

Protocol
| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | NCI-H640 cells |
Preparation Method | Approximately 2 × 105 cells/well of NCI-H640 cells in 12-well plates were incubated with Bufalin at final concentrations of 0 (vehicle, 0.5% DMSO), 1, 2 and 4μM for 24 hours. Cells from each treatment were stained with PI (5 g/ml) and analyzed by flow cytometry and cell viability was calculated. |
Reaction Conditions | 1μM, 2μM, 4μM; 24h |
Applications | After treatment with Bufalin, the activity of cells decreased significantly. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Carrageenan-induced paw edema rat model |
Preparation Method | The anti-inflammatory effect was based on the inhibition of carrageenan-induced hind paw edema. Bufalin (0.15, 0.3, and 0.6mg/kg, i.p.), indomethacin (10mg/kg, i.p.), and vehicle were administered intraperitoneally 30min prior to carrageenan injection. Each rat received a subplantar injection of carrageenan (0.1mL, 1% w/v in saline) in the right hind paw. A plethysmometer measured the volume of paw edema before and at various times (1, 2, 4, and 6h) after the carrageenan injection. The paw swelling ratio was calculated as a percentage increase from the paw volume measured prior to carrageenan injection. Rat paws were collected after the final assessment. Each hind paw was cut at the level of the calcaneus bone and used for Western blot analysis. |
Dosage form | 0.15mg/kg, 0.3mg/kg, 0.6mg/kg; ip; single injection |
Applications | After Bufalin treatment, the volume of paw edema in rats was significantly reduced. |
