Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanism of the water extracts of Astragali Radix on lung cancer. Methods The effects of Astragali Radix water extracts on cell viability, cell proliferation and cell migration of A549 and H1299 cells were detected by MTT assay, EdU assay and wound healing assay, respectively. The effect of Astragali Radix water extracts on cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. Western blotting assay was used to study the expression of related proteins in PI3K/Akt pathway. Finally, the effect of Astragali Radix water extracts on lung cancer in vivo was observed by benzopyrene-induced lung cancer model. Results From the result of MTT assay, the activity of A549 and H1299 cells was inhibited after treated with Astragali Radix water extracts after 48 h. In the EdU experiment, the proliferation ability of A549 and H1299 cells was significantly inhibited by Astragali Radix water extracts in a concentration dependent manner. The study of propidium iodide staining assay result showed that the cell cycle of A549 and H1299 cells was arrested in S phase. In addition, the study of wound healing assay revealed that the migration ability of A549 and H1299 cells was significantly suppressed after 24 h and 48 h treatment by Astragali Radix water extracts. And Western blotting assay revealed that, in drug treatment group, the protein expressions of PI3K, p-PDK1, and p-Akt were down-regulated. Finally, in vivo experiment showed that Astragali Radix water extracts significantly inhibited the number and size of lung tumor nodules in mice. Conclusion It is concluded that Astragali Radix water extracts can inhibit lung cancer. And the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
