Ziyuglycoside I (5-160 μM; 24 hours) reveals a marked anti-proliferation activity with an IC ₅₀ value of 13.96 μM in MDA-MB-231 cells. Ziyuglycoside I ( 5-20 μM; 24 hours) induces MDA-MB-231 cell apoptosis by increasing the percentage of apoptotic cells from 2.43% to 44.76% at 20 μM. Ziyuglycoside I (5-20 μM; 24 hours) induces the cleavage of caspas- 8, caspase-9, and caspase-3, up-regulates the pro-apoptotic protein Bax, and down-regulates anti-apoptotic protein Bal-2, dose-dependently reduces the level of mito-cyto c expression.
