Background:

Solamargine, apoisonouschemical compound, occurs in plants of theSolanaceaefamily, such aspotatoes,tomatoes, andeggplants[1].Solamargine has been also isolated fromSolanum nigrumfungalendophyteAspergillus flavus[2].

In vitro: Solamargine significantly inhibited migration and invasion of HepG2 cells by down-regulation of MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression and activity. Solamargine reduced HepG2 cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner. In HepG2 cells, solamargine (7.5 μM) decreased cell viability by less than 20%.Solamargineat the highest dose decreased cell migration and invasion by more than 70% and 72%, respectively.Solamarginealso reduced expression and function of MMP-2 and MMP-9 proteins [3].In lung cancer cells, Solamargine inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis through p38 MAPK-mediated suppression of phosphorylation and protein expression of Stat3, followed by inducing Stat3 downstream effector p21. In non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, solamargine inhibited growth and induced apoptosis of in a time- and dose-dependent manner.Solamargine also increased phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) in a time-dependent fashion [4].In SMMC-7721 cells, solamargine exerted potential anticancer activity through activation of caspase-3 and regulation of the cell cycle progression to induce apoptosis and inhibit hepatoma cells proliferation [5].In WM115 and WM239 cells, solamargine rapidly, selectively and effectively inhibited the growth of cells WM239 and WM115. Solamarginealso showed high efficacy against the vertical growth phase melanoma cells [6].
