Abstract: A fluorescence polarization technique was established to screen Hsp90 inhibitors and was selected as candidate for further anti-proliferation study. Thermal shift assay was used to confirm the binding effect of cynaroside and Hsp90. Then it was found that cynaroside showed potent and selective antiproliferation activities against non-small lung cancer cells among 14 strains of cancer cells. The colonial assay, western blot and flow cytometry were employed to investigate its possible mechanism. The results showed that cynaroside could inhibit the proliferation of non-small lung cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner and induce the degradation of Raf-1, and HER2 expression. Moreover, cynaroside induced G2/M arrest in H460 cell and triggered apoptosis by up-regulatiing Bax expression. Finally, the results displayed that cynaroside, one of the flavonoids, formed antineoplastic activity by inhibiting Hsp90 activity to degrade its client proteins in H460 cells, inducing G2/M phase arrest and triggering apoptosis by up-regulating Bax expression.

Key words: Hsp90, cynaroside, non-small lung cancer, cell cycle arrest, apoptosis
