Dauricine has been shown to possess intriguing anti-cancerous activities against various malignancies. The current study examined the inhibitory effects of dauricine against lung adenocarcinoma with cell lines and animal models. MTT assay was performed in three different lung adenocarcinoma cell lines using a concentration range of dauricine. Colony formation, wound healing, Edu incorporation, and cell cycle analysis were conducted to investigate the impact of dauricine on lung adenocarcinoma cells in vitro. Moreover, flow cytometry was performed to observe the effect of dauricine on cellular ROS levels. The expression of redox regulator Nrf2 and apoptosis-related markers was assessed by Western blot. Importantly, the anti-tumor efficacy of dauricine was studied in vivo with two lung adenocarcinoma animal models, including a subcutaneous cell line-derived syngeneic model and an inducible orthotopic KRAS^G12D-driven lung adenocarcinoma model. The proliferation and migration of lung adenocarcinoma cells were significantly reduced by dauricine treatment. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that dauricine treatment resulted in cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phases in A549, H1299, and A427 cells. Intracellular ROS levels were markedly augmented by dauricine treatment. Notably, dauricine led to the downregulation of the master redox regulator Nrf2. Meanwhile, dauricine treatment resulted in decreased Bcl-2 levels but elevated expression of BAX and cleaved Caspase 3. Finally, dauricine demonstrated significant efficacy in restricting tumor progression in both subcutaneous syngeneic and orthotopic lung adenocarcinoma models. Our results corroborate the anti-cancer effects of dauricine against lung adenocarcinoma with in vivo and in vitro analyses. Our findings also provide mechanistic evidence that links the impact of dauricine to cell cycle blockage and ROS-mediated apoptosis.
