Polyporus umbellatus is a kind of medicine and food fungus, in addition to the main component of polysaccharides, steroid components are rich in content, good biological activity and small side effects, part of its efficacy has been widely used in the treatment of various diseases. To investigate the anti-tumor biological activity and pharmacological effects of the steroid components, thiazole blue (MTT) method was used to evaluate the anti-proliferative effect of Polyporus umbellatus steroids on human hepatocarcinoma cell line HepG2, human cervical carcinoma cell line Hela, human renal clear-cell carcinoma cell line 786-O and human renal proximal tubular epithelial cell line HKC. The results indicated that different steroid compounds at different concentrations showed different degrees of inhibition of cell proliferation, as the concentration of the compound increases, its inhibition rate gradually increases, and it is concentration-dependent. The inhibitory effect of different compounds on the proliferation of the same cell was also different, among which the IC50 value of compound ZT-5 on HepG2 cells, Hela cells and 786-O cells was only 14.36 μg/mL, 21.90 μg/mL and 46.56 μg/mL, far lower than that of other compounds. The cytotoxic activity of Polyporus umbellatus steroids against tumor cells HepG2 and Hela was higher than that of 786-O cells, and the cytotoxic activity against normal cells HKC was less, showing obvious cell selectivity. The Polyporus umbellatus steroids have obvious anti-proliferative effect on tumor cells, which expand the therapeutic potential and have important guiding significance for the clinical application of Polyporus umbellatus.
