[0002] Guan Cangshu ( Atractylodes japonica Koidz. ex Kitam. is a herbaceous plant belonging to the Asteraceae family. Its dried rhizome is used medicinally. It is abundant in wild resources in Northeast my country, growing mainly in humus-rich sandy loam soils along forest edges, under forest canopies, on hillsides, and terraces at altitudes of 200-800 m. Koidz. ex Kitam. has the effects of strengthening the spleen and drying dampness, drying the soil and promoting diuresis, improving eyesight and dispelling wind, and eliminating foul odors. It is mainly used to treat various clinical symptoms such as loss of appetite, indigestion, rheumatoid arthritis, and colds. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that it has great potential for development in anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and protective and repairing effects on gastric mucosa tissue. In Japan and South Korea, the rhizome of Koidz. ex Kitam. is not only commonly used medicinally as Atractylodes macrocephala, but is also made into health foods.

[0003] The volatile oil components of Atractylodes lancea are mainly sesquiterpenes, which can be classified into several types, including eucalyptane and guaiacolane. Some representative compounds have been reported to have relevant pharmacological activities.

[0040] The MTT (tetrazolate salt) method was used to determine the killing effect of Atractylodes lancea guaiac glycoside II on three types of human tumor cells.

[0041] (1) Tumor cells: human gastric cancer cells BGC-823, human liver cancer cells HepG-2 and human lung cancer cells A549.

[0042] (2) Specific experimental procedures: Human gastric cancer cells BGC-823, human liver cancer cells HepG-2, and human lung cancer cells A549 were cultured in RPMI 1640 substrate (fetal bovine serum containing 10% L-glutamine, 100 μg / mL penicillin, and 100 μg / mL streptomycin). The tumor cells in the logarithmic growth phase were digested with 0.25% trypsin at a concentration of 10 × 10⁻⁶. 4 Cells were cultured at a concentration of 180 μL / mL in 96-well plates, with three replicates per group. Blank and control wells were also included. Blank wells contained no cells, and control wells contained culture medium without the drug. Cisplatin was used as the positive control. After culturing at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 h, the test sample was added to the culture medium to achieve final drug concentrations of 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 160 μmol / L. The solutions were then incubated at 37°C and 5% CO2 for another 48 h. 20 μL of 5 mg / mL MTT solution was added to each well, and the plates were incubated for another 4 h before termination. The supernatant was carefully discarded, and 150 μL of DMSO was added to each well. The plates were shaken for 10 min to completely dissolve any crystals. The absorbance (A) of each well was measured at 570 nm using an ELISA reader, and the cell survival inhibition rate was calculated as follows: Cell survival inhibition rate % = [1 - (Experimental group A - Blank group A) / (Control group A - Blank group A)] × 100%.
