Metastasis is a tricky challenge for lung cancer treatment. Formosanin C (FC), extracted from Chinese herbal saponin Rhizoma Paridis saponin (RPS), was found to have anti-tumor ability through inducing degradative autophagy and inhibiting pulmonary metastasis via repressing of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Degradative autophagy degrades intracellular substances to maintain cell energy homeostasis. Human small GTPase Rab37 increases tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) and reduces pulmonary metastasis through “secretory autophagy” in lung cancer cells. In the present studies, FC (1) inhibited CL1-5 lung cancer cell viability, (2) stimulated autophagy via upregulating ATG7 and Ras/MEK/ERK pathway, and (3) inhibited the cell migration through upregulating p62. However, whether FC can assist chemotherapy for lung cancer or not need much more research.肺癌Formosanin C細胞自噬Rab37ATG7Ras/MEK/ERKp62lung cancerFormosanin CautophagyRab37ATG7Ras/MEK/ERKp62
