Rimpang Curcuma mangga Val. banyak digunakan sebagai obat herbal antikanker payudara. Penelitian aktivitas sitotoksik terhadap sel kanker payudara banyak dilakukan utamanya untuk minyak atsiri rimpang, dan hanya sedikit penelitian terhadap ekstraknya. Walaupun demikian belum ada yang membandingkan aktivitas sitotoksik dari ekstrak dan minyak atsiri tersebut terhadap sel kanker payudara; meskipun kandungan senyawa keduanya berbeda. Oleh karena itu penelitian ini bertujuan membandingkan aktivitas sitotoksik dari ekstrak dan minyak atsiri rimpang C. mangga Val. secara in vitro terhadap sel kanker payudara MCF7. Ekstrak rimpang dibuat secara maserasi menggunakan pelarut n-heksana; sedangkan minyak atsiri dibuat melalui destilasi uap irisan rimpang selama 5 jam. Uji aktivitas sitotoksik in vitro dilakukan menggunakan metoda MTT Assay. Rendemen minyak dari ekstrak n-heksana rimpang C. mangga Val. adalah 1,15 x 10-2 % sedangkan rendemen minyak atsiri adalah 6,3 x 10-2 %. Hasil uji sitotoksik menghasilkan IC50 ekstrak 106,414 µg/ml (R2=0,9677) dan minyak atsiri 198,557 µg/ml (R2=0,8037). Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak rimpang C. mangga Val. lebih sitotoksik terhadap sel kanker payudara MCF-7 daripada minyak atsirinya, karena kandungan ekstrak mayoritas diterpenoid (53,18%) sedangkan minyak atsiri mayoritas monoterpenoid (51,34%).THE COMPARISON BETWEEN THE ACTIVITIES OF CYTOTOXIC EXTRACTS AND ESSENTIAL OILS OF RHIZOME Curcuma mango Val. TOWARD MCF-7 CELLSCurcuma mangga Val. rhizome has been used as herbal anti breast cancer. Researches on cytotoxic activity towards breast cancer cells have been done especially to the rhizome’s essential oil; and only few researches done to the extract. However there is no cytotoxic activity comparation of the extract and essential oil towards breast cancer cells; even tough their substance contents are different. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the cytotoxic activity in vitro of the extract and essential oil of C. mangga Val. rhizomes towards breast cancer cells of MCF-7. The rhizome extract was prepared by maceration using N-hexane; while the essential oil was prepared by steam distillation for 5 hours of the sliced rhizomes. The in vitro cytotoxic test was carried out using MTT Assay. The yield of oil from rhizome extract was 1.15 x 10-2 %; while the yield of essential oil was 6.3 x 10-2 %. The IC50 of extract oil was 106.414 µg/ml (R2=0.9677) and the IC50 of essential oil was 198.557 µg/ml (R2=0.8037). It shows that rhizome extract of C. mangga Val. was more cytotoxic towards MCF-7 than the oil because the majority content of extract were diterpenoids (53.18%) while the oil were monoterpenoids (51.34%).

Crystals of Ph3SnCl (1) were grown from a methanol/acetonitrile solution. Compounds [Ph3SnOH]n (2) and [(Ph2Sn)4Cl2O2(OH)2] (3) were crystallized from diethyl ether/methanol/acetonitrile and hot acetone/water solutions respectively, of the white precipitation, formed by adding KOH to solutions of 1 and [Ph2SnCl2] in 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 molar ratios respectively. Complex 1 was characterized by X-ray crystallography. X-ray structure determination of compounds 2 and 3 confirmed the previously reported identities. The molecular structure of 1, reported here, is a new polymorphic form of the known one for Ph3SnCl. Four independent [Ph3SnCl] molecules constitute the crystal structure of 1. The moieties are packed in two pairs in a tail-to-tail arrangement. Complexes 1–3 were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity (cell viability) against human cancer cell lines: HeLa (human cervical), MCF-7 (breast, estrogen receptor (ER) positive), MDA-MB-231 (breast, ER negative), A549 (lung), Caki-1 (kidney carcinoma), 786-O (renal adenocarcinoma), K1 (thyroid carcinoma), and the normal human lung cell line MRC-5 (normal human fetal lung fibroblast cells) versus, the normal immortalized human mammary gland epithelial cell line MTSV17 with a sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay. The results show potent cytotoxic activity of the complexes against all cell lines used, which was superior to that of cisplatin (CDDP). Compounds 1–3 showed higher activity against breast cancer cells MCF-7 (ER positive) than against of MDA-MB-231 (ER negative). These findings prompted us to search for possible interaction of these complexes with other cellular elements of fundamental importance in cell proliferation. The influence of these complexes 1–3 upon the catalytic peroxidation of linoleic acid to hydroperoxylinoleic acid by the enzyme lipoxygenase (LOX), as well as their binding affinity towards calf thymus-DNA, were kinetically and theoretically studied.

Breast cancer is one of cancer with high mortality. This cancer not only attacks women, but also men. Indonesia has many plants which potential as anticancer, such as orchids. Spathoglottis plicata is one of the orchid species that abundant in Indonesia and has a lot of antioxidant compounds which is guessed have anticancer properties. The objectives of this study were to study the cytotoxic activity and IC50 value of aquadest, ethanolic, and chloroform extracts of S. plicata’s pseudobulbs, leaves, and whole plants on T47D cells (breast cancer cells line) as well as cytotoxic activity of the specific fraction of the most toxic crude extract. S. plicata used in this study was obtained from Bungarinte nursery. Extractions were done by maceration method using aquadest, ethanol, and chloroform as the solvent. Cytotoxic test on T47D cells were done by MTT assay. The cytotoxic data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s HSD test. The IC50 of each extracts were calculate by probit analysis. The lowest IC50 value among all extracts was fractionated and isolated by preparative TLC. The cytotoxic activity and IC50 of this fractions were analyzed. The results showed that only 2 from 9 crude extracts that able to calculate its IC50 because those two extracts have concentration dependent pattern of inhibition concentration. Chloroform extract have the lowest IC50 value (369,837 μg/mL). Then, this extract fractionated by eluen n-hexane : ethyl acetate 4:1. Four fractions were collected. The lowest IC50 value is fraction IV (144,41 μg/mL). Based on the results it could be concluded that S. plicata leaves have moderate potency to develop as anticancet agents, especially on breast cancer.

Statins, including simvastatin (SMV), are commonly used for the control of hyperlipidaemia and have also proven therapeutic and preventative effects in cardiovascular diseases. Besides that, there is an emerging interest in their use as antineoplastic drugs as demonstrated by different studies showing their cytotoxic activity against different cancer cells. In this study, SMV-loaded emulsomes (SMV-EMLs) were formulated and evaluated for their cytotoxic activity in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The emulsomes were prepared using a modified thin-film hydration technique. A Box–Behnken model was used to investigate the impact of formulation conditions on vesicle size and drug entrapment. The optimized formulation showed a spherical shape with a vesicle size of 112.42 ± 2.1 nm and an entrapment efficiency of 94.34 ± 1.11%. Assessment of cytotoxic activities indicated that the optimized SMV-EMLs formula exhibited significantly lower half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) against MCF-7 cells. Cell cycle analysis indicated the accumulation of cells in the G2-M phase as well as increased cell fraction in the pre-G1 phase, suggesting an enhancement of anti-apoptotic activity of SMV. The staining of cells with Annex V revealed an increase in early and late apoptosis, in line with the increased cellular content of caspase-3 and Bax. In addition, the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was significantly decreased. In conclusion, SMV-EMLs demonstrated superior cell death-inducing activity against MCF-7 cells compared to pure SMV. This is mediated, at least in part, by enhanced pro-apoptotic activity and MMP modulation of SMV.

Abstract Background Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer, and no effective treatment solution has yet been found. The number of studies based on the research of novel natural compounds in the treatment of breast cancer has been increasing in recent years. The anticancer properties of natural compounds are related to the regulation of microRNA (miRNA) expression. Therefore, changing the profile of miRNAs with the use of natural products is very important in cancer treatment. However, the role of vulpinic acid and related miRNAs in breast cancer progression remains unknown. Vulpinic acid, methyl (as2E)-2-(3-hydroxy-5-oxo-4-phenylfuran-2-ylidene)-2 phenylacetate, is a natural product extracted from the lichen species and shows an anticancer effect on different cancer cells. Methods This study examines the effects of vulpinic acid on the miRNA levels of breast cancer (MCF-7) cells and its relationship with cell proliferation and apoptosis levels. The antiproliferative effect of vulpinic acid was screened against MCF-7 breast cancer cells and MCF-12A breast epithelial cells using the xCELLigence real-time cell analysis system. We analyzed the altered miRNA expression profile in MCF-7 breast cancer cells versus MCF-12A cells following their response to vulpinic acid through microarray analysis. The microarray analysis results were confirmed through quantitative real-time PCR and bioinformatics analysis. Results The results of the miRNA array and bioinformatic analyses demonstrated that 12 miRNAs were specifically responsive to vulpinic acid in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. This is the first study to reveal that vulpinic acid inhibits the expression of 12 miRNAs and suppresses breast cancer cell proliferation. The study also revealed that vulpinic acid may downregulate the expression of 12 miRNAs by repressing the FOXO-3 gene. The miRNA targets were mainly found to play a role in the apoptosis, cell cycle and MAPK pathways. Moreover, Bcl-2, Bax, procaspase-3 and procaspase-9 protein levels were assessed by western blot analysis for validation of apoptosis at the protein level. Conclusion This study revealed the molecular mechanisms of vulpinic acid on breast cancer and showed that vulpinic acid regulates apoptosis signaling pathways by decreasing the expression of miRNAs. The miRNA expression patterns illuminate the underlying effect of vulpinic acid in breast cancer treatment. Graphical Abstract

Objective: The genus Anthriscus from the Umbelliferae family has valuable compounds and pharmacological properties. Terpenoids, phenolics, anthocyanins, podophyllotoxins, and others have been identified in Anthriscus genus which has effects like analgesic, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and anti-platelet aggregation. The present study concerns the cytotoxic activity of A. nemorosa different extracts on breast cancer cells  (MCF-7) and normal cell lines (HFFF). Methods: Different extracts of aerial parts of  A. nemorosa were prepared using Soxhlet apparatus. The cytotoxicity of samples was assessed by MTT assay on breast cancer cells (MCF-7) and noncancerous cells (HFFF) with different concentrations of extracts in 24 and 48 hours. The most potent extract was fractioned and cytotoxic activity of fractions was considered, As well. A flow cytometry (annexin V/PI) assay has been used for detecting the mechanism of cell death in sample treated cell lines. Moreover, for clarifying volatile components of n-Hexane extract and its 80% and 100% VLC fractions were subjected to GC-MS apparatus. Results: Results indicated that n-Hexane extract and its 80% and 100% VLC fractions exhibited a significant (p<0.001) inhibitory effect on the growth of the MCF-7 cell line compared to the control group. Meanwhile, flow cytometry analysis revealed that potent extract caused cell death through necrosis and 80% and 100% fractions showed different mechanisms (such as autophagy). The major compounds, which maybe were in charge of showing cytotoxic activity were non-terpenoids. Conclusion: This study provides the evidence that in vitro cytotoxic activity of n-Hexane extract and 80% and 100% VLC fractions of A. nemorosa inhibited the proliferation of breast cancer cells (MCF7) via a different mechanism.
