Didymin Inhibits Proliferation and Induces Apoptosis in Gastric Cancer Cells by Modulating the PI3K/Akt Pathway.

Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of action of didymin, a dietary flavonoid glycoside, on GC treatment. Human GC cell lines Hs-746T and AGS were used to assess the effects of didymin...

      ab: Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumor with high morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of action of didymin, a dietary flavonoid glycoside, on GC treatment. Human GC cell lines Hs-746T and AGS were used to assess the effects of didymin on cell viability, cell proliferation, and cell cycle. The results showed that didymin decreased the proliferative capacity of GC cells and blocked cell cycle. Didymin decreased wound healing, invasion, and migration capacities of GC cells. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and mitochondrial membrane potentials were reduced in cells treated with didymin. Network pharmacology analysis revealed that the therapeutic effects of didymin on AGS cells were related to the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway. In vivo mouse xenograft studies confirmed that didymin treatment decreased tumor cell proliferation, cell cycle protein levels, and Akt phosphorylation. The present study demonstrated that didymin regulates mitochondrial function and the PI3K/Akt pathway to inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in GC cells in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, didymin is a promising drug for the treatment of GC.
