The decoloration method experiment on ZSO was studied. The different influencing factors on reaction were investigated by single test, such as content of peroxide, reaction temperature, and reaction time. The results of orthogonal test showed that the dominated sequence of influencing on chroma value was content of peroxide, and then was for reaction temperature, the last was reaction time. The optimal combination proved was A2B2C2. On this condition, the chroma value of ZSO could be reduced to 1.45, it fully meets the requirement of industrial application.

Insilico study of anticancer bioactivity in oil of “buah wali” [Brucea javanica (L.) Merr] has been successfully carried out. “Buah Wali” (Brucea javanica (L.) Merr) is known to treat various diseases such as diabetes, diarrhea, and malaria. In addition, “buah wali” seeds are supported to have antidiabetic, antioxidant, and anticancer activities. The stages of the study began by taking a sample of “buah wali”seeds, then extracted to get oil of “buah wali”. While GC-MS analysis resulted Octadec-9-enoic acid (56.25%), palmitic acid (13.82%), stearic acid (10.57%), and acids -9-octadecanoate (5.91%) were found as the major components of the seed oil. Based on these compounds, docking molecular was carried out to find anticancer bioactivity. The results obtained are compounds that have lower binding energy than the native ligands [Octadec-9-enoic acid (-72.4518), hexadecanoic acid (-70.2136), octadecanoic (-72.2362).

Background: Zanthoxylum bungeanum seed oil (ZBSO) is a main extract of the edible drug Zanthoxylum bungeanum seeds. Recently reports proved that it has a significant cytotoxic effect on various cancer cells. However, systematic investigation on the roles of ZBSO in laryngeal carcinoma (LC) is rare. Objective: To reveal the function of ZBSO on human laryngeal squamous carcinoma cells (Hep-2) and to elucidate its underlying mechanism. Methods: In this study, the chemical composition analysis of ZBSO was done using Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC), and the anti-tumor effect of ZBSO on Hep-2 cells was evaluated by cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle experiments. qRT-PCR, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blotting were used for mechanistic investigation at the molecular level. Results: The main compound of ZBSO was identified as polyunsaturated fatty acids. Furthermore, as compared with normal cells, significant inhibitory activities of ZBSO was observed on Hep-2 cells with dose- and time-dependency, which induced apoptosis, blocked cell cycle at the S phase, and inhibited cell proliferation. In addition, IHC results showed difference in the level of protein expression of ZBSO-induced autophagy-related markers. At last, Western blotting results indicated that ZBSO could inhibit the expression and phosphorylation levels of PI3K/AKT/mTOR protein. Conclusions: The anti-LC effect of ZBSO might be intimately associated with the induction of autophagy and the inhibition of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. ZBSO may be a potential anti-laryngocarcinoma agent.
