The invention belongs to the technical field of biological medicines, and particularly relates to application of
cardiac glycoside medicines or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or derivatives thereof in preparation of products for inhibition, relief,
adjuvant therapy or treatment of cancers and medicines. The invention provides application of
cardiac glycoside drugs or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or derivatives of the
cardiac glycoside drugs in preparation of products for inhibition, alleviation,
adjuvant therapy or treatment of cancers and the drugs, and the cardiac
glycoside drugs comprise deacetylated chaenoside, deacetylated chaenoside, deacetylated chaenoside, deacetylated chaenoside, deacetylated chaenoside, deacetylated chaenoside, deacetylated chaenoside and deacetylated chaenoside. According to the application disclosed by the invention, the effects of inhibiting, relieving, assisting in treating or treating cancers and potential mechanisms of the Deslanoside are researched in SH-SY5Y and SK-N-SH
neuroblastoma cell lines, and results show that the Deslanoside can be used for inhibiting proliferation of SH-SY5Y cells and SK-N-SH cells, promoting
apoptosis and respectively inducing a
cell cycle to stop at a G0 / G1 phase; and G1 / S and G2 / M periods.
