Abstract Aims: The aim of our research was to isolate anthocyanin from red sorghum bran and to study its effects on p53 and bcl 2 gene expressions in Human Breast cancer cell line (MCF-7). Main methods: Two compounds were isolated from red sorghum bran by using Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. The antiproliferative activity of isolated compounds were analysed by MTT assay and the expression studies were performed by RT-PCR analysis.Key findings: Our research focusing on apigenin-5-β-D-glucopyranoside and luteolin-5-β-D-glucopyranoside another compound as a potention anticancer agent have demonstrated that the compounds isolated from red sorghum bran inhibited breast cancer cell lines by up regulation of P53 gene expression and down regulation of Bcl 2 gene expression. Significance: In conclusion, the two compounds isolated from red sorghum bran, were effective in up regulation of P53 and down regulation of Bcl 2 gene expression.

Breast cancer is a leading cause of death in women worldwide both in the developed and developing countries. Thus effective treatment of breast cancer with potential antitumour drugs is important. In this paper, human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 has been employed to evaluate the antiproliferative activity of red sorghum bran anthocyanin. The present investigation showed that red sorghum bran anthocyanin induced growth inhibition of MCF-7 cells at significant level. The growth inhibition is dose dependent and irreversible in nature. When MCF-7 cells were treated with red sorghum bran anthocyanins due to activity of anthocyanin morphological changes were observed. The morphological changes were identified through the formation of apoptopic bodies. The fragmentation by these anthocyanins on DNA to oligonuleosomal-sized fragments, is a characteristic of apoptosis, and it was observed as concentration-dependent. Thus, this paper clearly demonstrates that human breast cancer cell MCF-7 is highly responsive by red sorghum bran anthocyanins result from the induction of apoptosis in MCF-7 cells.

Three alkaloids (named rutaecarpine (1), evodiamine (2), schinifoline (3) and one phenylpropanoid, integrifoliodiol (4)) have been isolated from the EtOAc extract of the fruits of Tetradium ruticarpum (A. Juss.) T. G. Hartley collected in Lang Son province. Their structures have been identified by using 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopies. All four compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity against the human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) and tamoxifen-resistant breast cancer cell line (MCF\TAMR). The results showed that rutaecarpine (1) inhibited the growth of MCF7 and MCF\TAMR with its IC50 values of 41.2 and 64.6 µM, respectively. In addition, compounds 1, 2, and 4 showed moderate activity toward MCF-7 cell line.
