Breast cancer (BC) is the most prevalent cancer among women around the world. Finding new and efficient drugs has become a crucial aspect of BC treatment. Liensinine diperchlorate (LIN) and artemisitene (ATT) are natural compounds with potential anti-cancer activities extracted from lotus ( Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn ) seeds?and Artemisia annua , respectively. However, the synergistic anti-breast cancer effectiveness and mechanism of LIN and ATT remain unknown. This study intended to reveal the biological functions and underlying mechanism of combined LIN and ATT treatment in BC. Herein, we first reported that LIN and ATT synergistically mitigated the proliferation, migration as well as invasion of BC cells. Besides, LIN boosted the stimulatory effect of ATT on reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated apoptosis in BC cells. Interestingly, LIN and ATT synergistically attenuated the growth of BC patient-derived organoids. Moreover, LIN augmented the inhibitory efficacy of ATT on BC growth in vivo without obvious side effects. Furthermore, the inactivation of PI3K-AKT pathway and its regulated proteins contributed to the therapeutic role of LIN and ATT treatment in BC. Intriguingly, a prediction model constructed as per RNA sequencing data indicated that the combination of LIN and ATT treatment might ameliorate the prognosis of BC patients. In conclusion, our present investigation demonstrated that LIN and ATT synergistically inhibited BC cell proliferation, migration as well as invasion and enhanced ROS-mediated apoptosis via suppressing the PI3K-AKT signaling, and suggested that combining LIN and ATT treatment might be a promising choice for BC therapy.
