Songorine is investigated its efficacy and safety in SKOV3 tumorbearing BALB/c nude mice, songorine?inhibits EOC cell survival, invasion and migration, promoted EOC cell apoptosis and suppressed mammalian EOC tumorigenic behavior. In addition, western blot and IHC results show that songorine consistently downregulates the expression of Ncadherin, vimentin, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)2, MMP9, phosphorylated GSK3β, βcatenin and Bcl2, and upregulated the expression of Ecadherin, cleaved caspase3, cleaved caspase9 and Bax[1].
Songorine shows an Antiarrhythmic activity in aconitine-induced arrhythmia model in rats, exhibits LD50 and ED50 values of 142 mg and 7.3mg, respectively[2].
