AI Technical Summary
Existing drugs for treating brain metastases have difficulty crossing the blood-brain barrier to achieve effective concentrations, resulting in unsatisfactory treatment outcomes, especially for brain metastases from lung and breast cancer.
The extract GYH90MT from *Cynodon dactylon* was used to isolate monoterpenoid indole alkaloids, including ervaflabelline A, ervaflabelline B, and ervaflabelline C, through reflux extraction, column chromatography, and gradient elution. These compounds were then used to prepare drugs for treating brain metastases.
GYH90MT exhibits significant cytotoxic inhibitory activity, effectively inhibiting the growth of 4T1 brain metastases from breast cancer, with no obvious adverse reactions in mice, and its effects are time- and dose-dependent.
