Abstract:	Background Alpinia nantoensis (Zingiberaceae) is an aromatic plant endemic to Taiwan, which is used as food flavoring and traditional herbal medicine. The biological activities of compounds isolated from this plant are rarely investigated. Purpose The present study was aimed to investigate the anti-metastatic potential of trans-3‑methoxy‑5-hydroxystilbene (MHS) a major stilbene isolated from the rhizomes of A. nantonensis. Methods We investigated the anti-metastatic potential of MHS on human non-small cell lung carcinoma (A549) cell line using wound healing, trans-well, western blot, zymography and immunofluorescence assays. Results Initial cytotoxicity assay showed that treatment with MHS did not exhibit cytotoxicity to A549 cells up to the concentration of 40 µM. Further in vitro wound healing and transwell chamber assays revealed that MHS significantly inhibited tumor cell migration in a dose-dependent manner, which is associated with inhibition of matrix mettalloprotinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix mettalloprotinase-9 (MMP-9) at both enzyme and protein levels. The inhibition of MMPs activity by MHS was reasoned by suppression of their corresponding transcription factor, β-catenin as indicated by reduced levels of β-catenin in the nucleus. MHS also regulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) by increasing E-cadherin and occludin as well as decreasing N-cadherin levels in A549 cells. Furthermore, pre-treatment with MHS significantly inhibited A549 cells migration and EMT in TGF-β induced A549 cells. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating that MHS, a plant-derived stilbene has a promising ability to inhibit lung cancer cell metastasis in vitro.
