Abstract

Antimetastatic effects of Agaricus mixed prescription (AMP) were studied in the respect of blood-borne metastasis. For this aim, cytotoxicity against various cancer cells and normal cells, Chicken Chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay, cancer cell adhesion assay, platelet aggregation assay, pulmonary colonization, life span of S-180 implanted mice, and cytokine release assay were evaluated, respectively. The results were summarized as follows; AMP did not exert any cytotoxicity against all cell lines with IC50 of 25mg/ml on B16BL6. AMP disrupted formation of CAM at 1mg/ml. AMP was suppressive in adhesion assay of B16BL6. AMP also inhibited tumor induced platelet aggregation. In pulmonary colonization assay by B16BL6, the number of colonies in the lungs was significantly decreased in sample group than in control group. In animal study with S-180, the life span of AMP treated group was extended than that of control group. IL-12 was effectively increased in AMP treated group in cytokine release assay. Taken together, AMP can be possibly applied to cancer or metastasis.
