Colorectal carcinoma is one of the utmost diagnosed cancer with a steep increase in mortality rate. The incidence has been increasing in developing countries like India due to a westernization life style. Flavonoids have been explored widely for its various pharmacological activity including antitumor activity. Orientin, an analogue of luteolin (citrus flavonoid) isolated from rooibos and tulsi leaves is also expected to deliver significant antitumor activity similar to that of luteolin. The present study anticipates exploring the antitumor activity of orientin against colorectal carcinoma cells (HT29). Orientin exhibited remarkable cytotoxicity and antiproliferative activity against HT29 cells, which is clearly evident from tetrazolium based cytotoxicity and lactate dehydrogenase release assays. Orientin induce G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and regulates cyclin and cyclin-dependent protein kinases in order to prevent the entry of the cell cycle to the S phase. Annexin V-FITC (V-Fluorescein Isothiocyanate) dual staining reveals the apoptotic induction ability of orientin. The Bcl-2 family proteins along with the inhibitor of apoptotic proteins were regulated and the tumor suppressor p-53 expression have been decreased. In conclusion, our results proposed that orientin could be a potent chemotherapeutic agent against colorectal cancer after ascertaining their molecular mechanisms.
