1-hydroxy-3,7,8-trimethoxyxanthone (xanthone 1) was isolated from Gentianopsis paludosa Ma and identified by MS and NMR in our laboratory. In this study, the results showed that xanthone 1 is a potent inducer of anti-proliferation and apoptosis in HL-60 cells. When the cells treated with lower concentrations of xanthone 1 (12.4–74.4 μM), significant proliferation inhibition was detected by cell viability assay and morphological analyses, and conspicuous G1 and G2/M cell cycle arrest were observed by flow cytometric (FCM) analysis. However, when the cells treated with higher doses of xanthone 1 (82.7–330.8 μM), significant apoptosis was observed by double sequential AO/EB staining, DNA fragmentation assay and FCM analysis. In addition, conspicuous DNA damage was detected by comet assay. In short, all the results showed that xanthone 1 had a significant cytotoxic effect and could induce proliferation inhibition and apoptosis in HL-60 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. It was possible that xanthone 1 could induce DNA damage in HL-60 cells, which resulted in G1 phase arrest at the lower concentrations and G2/M phase arrest at the higher concentrations, thus inhibiting the cell proliferation, and irreparable DNA damage at the higher concentrations might be responsible for the occurrence of apoptosis.
