Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is currently the preferred chemotherapeutic agent for breast cancer, and hydroxyl safflower yellow B (HSYB) has a tumor growth-inhibiting activity. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of HSYB combined with DOX on the proliferation of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells and explore the underlying mechanism. MTT and cell colony formation assays revealed that the proliferation rate of MCF-7 cells was signifiscantly decreased after HSYB and DOX treatment. Combined HSYB and DOX treatment significantly decreased the expression levels of BCL-2 in MCF-7 cells, while the expression levels of apoptosis-associated proteins, including cleaved caspase-9, BAX and cleaved caspase-3, were markedly increased. Furthermore, flow cytometry and western blot analysis demonstrated that combined HSYB and DOX treatment stimulated an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species and promoted the release of cytochrome c, leading to apoptosis. The current data suggested that the combination of HSYB and DOX may have marked antitumor activity.

Abstract
Hydroxysafflower yellow A (HSYA), as a principal natural ingredient extracted from safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), has significant pharmacological activities, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, and anticancer effects. However, chemical instability and low bioavailability have been severely hampering the clinical applications of HSYA during the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Therefore, this present review systematically summarized the materials about HSYA, including acquisition methods, extraction and detection methods, pharmacokinetics, pharmacological effects and molecular mechanism, especially focus on the possible causes and resolutions about the chemical instability and low bioavailability of HSYA, in order to provide relatively comprehensive basic data for the related research of HSYA.

Hydroxysafflor yellow A protects against angiotensin II‑induced hypertrophy. Mol Med Rep 2018; 18:3649-3656. [PMID: 30132539 PMCID: PMC6131570 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2018.9399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2018] [Accepted: 06/25/2018] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is life-threatening and is generally accompanied by myocardial hypertrophy. Notably, Hydroxysafflor yellow A (HSYA) can prevent tissue injuries. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of HSYA on hypertrophy after MI. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining assays were performed to measure cell area. The protein synthesis rate was assessed using the 3H Leucine incorporation assay. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), western blot analysis and the immunohistochemical assay were used to detect the expression of target genes. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation were examined using commercial kits. Decreased myocardial hypertrophy was observed in animals treated with HSYA. Furthermore, the expression of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) was higher in HSYA administration groups compared with that in the MI model group. In H9c2 cardiomyocytes, the pretreatment with HSYA increased the cell viability, however, it reduced protein synthesis rate, mitigated cell surface area and decreased the expression of Brain natriuretic factor (BNP) and β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC). By contrast, the downregulation of Nrf2 deteriorated and reversed the effect of Ang II and HSYA. Furthermore, oxidative stress was alleviated by HSYA via inhibiting ROS generation, modulating the activities of SOD and MDA. In addition, the expression of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were recovered by the pretreatment of HSYA that was combated by siNrf2. In conclusion, HSYA exerted anti-hypertrophic effects, which was pertinent with the activation of Nrf2/NQO-1/HO-1 signaling pathway. The findings of this study may inspire a novel strategy to combat MI.

Abstract
Hydroxysafflor yellow A (HSYA), a representative component of Carthamus tinctorius, has attracted much attention because of its remarkable cardiovascular activities. Its structure was originally reported in 1993 and has been widely cited to date. In our experiments, its solution structure was studied using NMR techniques in different solvents, including DMSO-d(6), pyridine-d(5), and CD(3)OH. The results indicate that the structure of HSYA is different than the previously described 1b, with 3-enol-1,7-diketo form. The structure has two keto-enol tautomers (2a and 2b), and 2a, with the 1-enol-3,7-diketo form, is the preferred tautomer. On the basis of this finding, other published quinochalcone C-glycoside structures were revised. Furthermore, a trend in the (13)C NMR data of the (E)-olefinic carbons of quinochalcone C-glycosides is summarized, and a hypothesis is proposed for the relationship between the features of the molecular structure and the preferred keto-enol tautomer.
