4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Therapeutic Uses

Emodin /is/ a widely available over-the-counter herbal remedy.

George J et al; Toxicologist 72(S-1): 341 (2003)


/EXPL THER:/ ... Emodin and cassiamin B /were examined as cancer chemopreventive agents/ ... These compounds exhibited the remarkable anti-tumor promoting effect on two-stage carcinogenesis test of mouse skin tumors induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene as an initiator and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) as a promoter by both topical application. Furthermore, emodin exhibited potent inhibitory activity on two-stage carcinogenesis test of mouse skin tumors induced by nitric oxide donor, (+/-)-(E)-methyl-2-[(E)-hydroxyimino]-5-nitro-6-methoxy-3-hexeneamide as an initiator and TPA as a promoter.

PMID:12048158 Koyama J et al; Cancer Lett 182(2): 135-9 (2002)


/EXPL THER:/ ... Emodin ameliorates the undesirable effects of concentrated glucose on HPMC /human peritoneal mesothelial cells/ via suppression of PKC activation and CREB phosphorylation, and suggest that emodin may have a therapeutic potential in the prevention or treatment of glucose-induced structural and functional abnormalities in the peritoneal membrane.

5.2 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption, excretion, tissue distribution and metabolism of the anthraquinone [14C]emodin was studied after a single oral administration (approx. 50 mg/kg) to rats. Urinary excretion amounted to 18(+/- 5)% dose in 24 hr and to 22(+/- 6)% in 72 hr. Metabolites found in pooled urine (0-72 hr) were mostly free anthraquinones (emodin and emodic acid, 16% dose); 3% was conjugated and 3% was non-extractable radioactivity. In 24 hr, 48 +/- 11% and in 120 hr, 68 +/- 8% dose was excreted in the faeces, mostly in the free anthraquinone form. In two cannulated rats biliary excretion reached a maximum at approx. 6 hr and amounted to 49% dose within 15 hr; 70% of biliary activity was in the form of conjugated emodin. The content of radioactivity in most organs decreased significantly between 3 and 5 days. In kidneys, however, the 14C activity was still equiv. to 4.33 ppm. emodin after five days. Mesenterium and fat tissue showed increasing 14C activity from 72 to 120 hr.

5.3 Metabolism/Metabolites

... The metabolism of emodin (1,3,8-trihydroxy-6-methylanthraquinone) /was studied/... With rat liver microsomes, the formation of two emodin metabolites, omega-hydroxyemodin and 2-hydroxyemodin, was observed. The rates of formation of omega-hydroxyemodin were not different with microsomes from rats that had been pretreated with inducers for different cytochrome P450 enzymes. Thus, the formation of omega-hydroxyemodin seems to be catalyzed by several cytochrome P450 enzymes at low rates. The formation of 2-hydroxyemodin was increased in liver microsomes from 3-methylcholanthrene-pretreated rats and was inhibited by alpha-naphthoflavone, by an anti-rat cytochrome P450 1A1/2 antibody, and, to a lesser degree, by an anti-rat cytochrome P450 1A1 antibody. These data suggest the involvement of cytochrome P450 1A2 in the formation of this metabolite. However, other cytochrome P450 enzymes also seem to catalyze this reaction. The anthraquinone chrysophanol (1,8-dihydroxy-3-methylanthraquinone) is transformed, in a cytochrome P450-dependent oxidation, to aloe-emodin (1, 8-dihydroxy-3-hydroxymethylanthraquinone) as the major product formed.

PMID:9616189 Mueller S et al; Drug Metab Dispos. 26(6): 540-6 (1998)


The hepatic microsomes derived from various animal species transformed emodin (1,3,8-trihydroxy-6-methylanthraquinone), into an unidentified anthraquinone, along with 2-hydroxy-, 4-hydroxy- and 7-hydroxyemodins. ... This major metabolite /was identified/ as omega-hydroxy-emodin (1,3,8-trihydroxy-6-hydroxymethylanthraquinone). Among 7 animal species, the highest activity to produce this omega-hydroxyemodin was observed in the hepatic microsomes of guinea pig and rat, followed by mouse and rabbit. The microsomal activity to convert emodin into omega-hydroxyemodin was accelerated by the pretreatment of animals with phenobarbital, and inhibited by SKF 525A. The microsomal hydroxylation reactions of the methyl residue and the anthraquinoid nucleus of emodin were presumed to be catalyzed regiospecifically by multiple forms of cytochrome P-450.

PMID:3309636 Murakami H et al; Mutat Res 180 (2): 147-53 (1987)


... Emodin was biotransformed by the microsomal enzymes into at least 5 quinonoid metabolites, among which one pigment, identified as 2-hydroxyemodin (1,2,3,8-tetrahydroxy-6-methyl-anthraquinone), was proven to be a direct mutagen to the test strain, and the remaining 4 quinonoid metabolites were negative or far less active than this active principle.

PMID:6366529 Masuda T et al; Mutat Res 125(2): 135-44 (1984)


Emodin has known human metabolites that include Emodin 3-hydroxy-glucuronide.

5.4 Mechanism of Action

The anthraquinone mycotoxins emodin and skyrin were examined for the inhibitory effects on murine leukemia L1210 culture cells, oxidative phosphorylation of rat liver mitochondria, and Na+, K+-activated ATPase activity of rat brain microsomes to find the differences between their modes of toxic action. Skyrin exhibited a stronger inhibitory effect than emodin on the growth of L1210 culture cells. Emodin showed a stronger uncoupling effect than skyrin on mitochondrial respiration. Skyrin inhibited Na+, K+-activated ATPase activity of rat brain microsomes but emodin did not inhibit.

PMID:6320499 Kawai K et al; Toxicol Lett 20 (2): 155-60 (1984)


... Emodin induces apoptotic responses in the human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HCC) Mahlavu, PLC / PRF / 5 and HepG2. The addition of emodin to these three cell lines led to inhibition of growth in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Emodin generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) in these cells which brought about a reduction of the intracellular mitochondrial transmembrane potential (Deltaym), followed by the activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3, leading to DNA fragmentation and apoptosis.

Emodin inhibited the activity of TPK and CK2 and the degradation of I-kappaB.

PMID:12703988 Zhu F et al; Ai Zheng 22 (4): 358-362 (2003)


... Emodin-induced apoptosis of CH27 cells does not involve modulation of endogenous Bcl-X(L) protein expression, but appears to be associated with the increased expression of cellular Bak and Bax proteins.
