Oridonin has potent anti-tumor activity. Oridonin targets AE (AML1-ETO) oncoprotein. Exposure to oridonin induces apoptosis in AE-bearing leukemic cells through the activation of intrinsic apoptotic pathway and triggering a caspase-3-mediated degradation of AE at D188. The compound also prolonged the lifespan of C57 mice bearing truncated AE-expressing leukemic cells without side effects like suppression of bone marrow or reduction of body weight of animals, and exerted synergic effects while combined with cytosine arabinoside. Additionally, oridonin inhibited tumor growth in nude mice inoculated with t(8;21)-harboring Kasumi-1 cells.
Oridonin has potent anti-tumor activity; targets AE oncoprotein.
The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular mechanisms mediating hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced protection against oridonin-induced apoptosis in A549 cells. Oridonin induced decrease in Bcl-2/Bax ratio and activation of caspase-3, while these processes were reversed by HGF

Fatty acid synthase (FAS) inhibitors could be a therapeutic target in cancer treatment. However, only a few FAS inhibitors showing clinical potential have been reported. Oridonin is a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescens. Although it has antiproliferative activity in cancers
Oridonin, a diterpenoid compound, extracted and purified from Rabdosia rubescen has been reported to have cytotoxic effect on tumour cells through apoptosis, and tyrosine kinase pathways are involved in these processes. A specific epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor AG1478

Oridonin (1), a complex ent-kaurane diterpenoid isolated from the traditional Chinese herb Isodon rubescens , has demonstrated great potential in the treatment of various human cancers due to its unique and safe anticancer pharmacological profile. Nevertheless, the clinical development of
Oridonin (ORI)-loaded Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) were prepared by emulsion-evaporation and low temperature-solidification technique, and evaluated for morphological observation, particle size, zeta potential and in vitro drug release. Next, the characteristics of biodistribution and pharmacokinetics in vivo were examined. The
