Cycloartenyl ferulate (CF) is abundant in brown rice with multiple biologic functions. It has been reported to possess antitumor activity; however, the related mechanism of action of CF has not been clarified. Herein, we unexpectedly uncover the immunological regulation effects of CF and its molecular mechanism. We discovered that CF directly enhanced the killing capacity of natural killer (NK) cells for various cancer cells in vitro. In vivo, CF also improved cancer surveillance in mouse models of lymphoma clearance and metastatic melanoma dependent on NK cells. In addition, CF promoted anticancer efficacy of the anti-PD1 antibody with improvement of tumor immune microenvironment. Mechanistically, we first unveiled that CF acted on the canonical JAK1/2-STAT1 signaling pathway to enhance the immunity of the NK cells by selectively binding to interferon γ receptor 1. Collectively, our results indicate that CF is a promising immunoregulation agent worthy of attention in clinical application in the future. Due to broad biological significance of interferon γ, our findings also provide a capability to understand the diverse functions of CF.

Article Synopsis
- Rice is a crucial food source known for its nutritional benefits and appealing aroma, containing oryzanol, a group of beneficial phytochemicals.
- Key components of oryzanol include 24-Methylenecycloartanyl ferulate, cycloartenyl ferulate, and campestanyl ferulate, and current extraction methods lack precision in quantifying them individually.
- This study developed a new analytical method using HPLC-MS/MS and mixed-mode extraction to accurately measure and differentiate the three main oryzanols in rice, optimizing conditions for better separation and recovery.

Rice bran oil (RBO) has been demonstrated to affect complex malfunctioned conditions such as oxidative stress, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, hypertension, inflammation, abnormal cell growth (cancer), ulceration, immune and cognitive modulation. This unique effect of RBO is due to the presence of well-balanced fatty acid composition and several bioactive compounds, γ- oryzanol (cycloartenyl ferulate, 24-methylenecycloartanyl ferulate, campesterol ferulate, and β-sitosteryl ferulate), vitamin E (tocopherol and tocotrienol), phytosterols (β-sitosterol, campesterol and stigmasterol) and other nutrients. The RBO composition of bioactive compounds varied geographically, thus the clear-cut mechanisms of action on complex disease cascades are still required.
