Activated hepatic stellate cells (HSC) are responsible for excess extracellular matrix (ECM) protein deposition in liver fibrosis. Previously, our group reported that the natural compound oridonin induces apoptosis, inhibits cell proliferation, and down-regulates ECM proteins in activated HSC. In this study, the anti-fibrogenic effects of oridonin derivative CYD0682 on the activated human LX-2 and rat HSC-T6 stellate cell lines were investigated. Cell proliferation was measured by Alamar Blue assay. Apoptosis was detected by Cell Death ELISA and staining of Yo-Pro-1 and propidium iodide. Cell cycle was determined by flow cytometry. Immunoblot and Immunofluorescence staining were performed for cellular protein expression. CYD0682 treatment significantly inhibited LX-2 cells proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner with an IC50 value of 0.49 μM for 48 hours, ~10–fold greater potency than oridonin. Similar results were observed in HSC-T6 cells. In contrast, 2.5 μM of CYD0682 treatment had no significant effects on proliferation of the human hepatocyte cell line C3A. CYD0682 treatment induced LX-2 cell apoptosis and S-phase cell cycle arrest, and was associated with activation of p53, p21, and cleaved-caspase-3. The myofibroblast marker protein α-smooth muscle actin and major ECM proteins type I collagen and fibronectin were markedly suppressed in a time- and dose-dependent fashion by CYD0682. Furthermore, pre-treatment with CYD0682 blocked TGFβ-induced type I collagen and fibronectin production. In comparison with oridonin, its novel derivative CYD0682 may act as a more potent anti-hepatic fibrosis agent.
