Description of Cinnamaldehyde

Cinnamaldehyde (CA) is a bioactive compound isolated from the stem bark of cinnamon, which has antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on various cancer cell lines in vitro[1]. Cinnamaldehyde has many pharmacological effects, including anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, antibacterial and neuroprotective functions[2-3].

Cinnamaldehyde can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of colorectal cancer cells and promote apoptosis. At 24 h, the IC50 values of Cinnamaldehyde in inhibiting the growth of HCT116, LoVo, and SW480 cells were 30.7, 30.6 and 35.69 µg/ml, respectively. Cinnamaldehyde (0, 20, 40 and 80 μg/ml) up-regulated the expression of E-cadherin and downregulated the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP-2) and MMP-9[1]. Cinnamaldehyde attenuates renal cellular senescence by antagonizing the inhibitory effects of D-galactose on cell viability and P13K/Akt signaling pathway and reversing D-galactose-induced cellular autophagy and senescence[2]. Low concentrations of cinnamaldehyde (1 µg/ml) resulted in a slight increase in NF-κB activation, whereas higher concentrations (5 and 10 µg/ml) led to a dose-dependent decrease in lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-stimulated NF-κB activation[3].

Cinnamaldehyde can alleviate D-galactose-induced renal damage in rats and reverse the inhibitory effect of D-galactose-induced PI3K/Akt signaling pathway[2]. Cinnamaldehyde (80 mg/kg) significantly inhibited tumor growth in the HCT-116 ectopic CRC model, and the Ki67 level in the tumor tissue of mice in the Cinnamaldehyde-treated group was significantly reduced, and the apoptotic cells were significantly increased[4].

Protocol of Cinnamaldehyde

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

LoVo, SW480 and HCT116 cells

Preparation Method

HCT116, LoVo and SW480 cells were treated with 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 60 and 80 µg/ml Cinnamaldehyde for 12, 24, and 48 h. Cell growth inhibition was measured using the MTT assay.

Reaction Conditions

0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 60 and 80 µg/ml, 12, 24 and 48 h

Applications

Cinnamaldehyde can inhibit the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells. The IC50 values of Cinnamaldehyde inhibition of HCT116, LoVo and SW480 cell growth at 24 h were 30.7, 30.6 and 35.69 µg/ml, respectively.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

HCT-116 ectopic CRC model

Preparation Method

HCT-116 cells (1 × 107) were injected into nude mice. After the tumors were allowed to grow for 10 days, the mice were treated with Cinnamaldehyde (40 or 80 mg/kg/day). Saline was used as a negative control and 5-FU (20 mg/kg) as a positive control, every other day.

Dosage form

40 or 80 mg/kg/day, 2 weeks

Applications

Cinnamaldehyde can inhibit tumor growth in vivo, and Ki67-positive cells are significantly reduced.
