Papua has a diversity of flora species, one of which is the Papuan Grape (Sararanga sinuosa Hemsley). It is commonly used by the Depapre community, Jayapura, as a stamina booster. This research aims to identify the secondary metabolite compounds, to test the cytotoxic activity of Papuan Grape (Sararanga sinuosa Hemsley) extract, and to determine the best concentration that inhabits the growth of Artemia salina larvae using the BSLT method. This study was conducted with the extraction stage using the maceration method by making use of 96% ethanol solvent. Subsequently, the concentration series 0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 ppm of Papuan Grape (Sararanga sinuosa Hemsley) extract were made to test the cytotoxic activity on the mortality of Artemia salina shrimp larvae. The results showed that Alkaloids, Flavonoids, Saponins, and Tannins were compounded as secondary metabolite. An antioxidant research that had been carried out previously had LC50 of green-white fruit (12,49 ± 0,35 mg/ml), orange-red fruit (17,62 ± 3,49 mg/ml) and red fruit (12,23 ± 0,46 mg/ml). The community process one stalk of it into juice and used or consumed it two times a day.

Breast cancer is a disease caused by abnormal cell proliferation in the breast. God’s crown fruit (Phaleria macrocarpa) and its seed have potential as an antiproliferation of cancer cells. It contains active compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, polyphenols, and tannins. The sample of God’s crown fruit was obtained by extraction and fractionation using the maceration method. Cytotoxicity of extracts and fractions was determined using the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test method. The antiproliferation activity test of God’s crown fruit against MCM-B2 was performed using the hemacytometer method. The God’s crown fruit sample consists of crude ethanol extract, n-hexane fraction, ethyl acetate fraction, and water fraction. Lethal concentration 50 (LC50) values in crude ethanol extract, n-hexane fraction, ethyl acetate fraction, and water fraction were 13.72, 147.55, 405.81, and 149.55 ppm, respectively. The concentration of the test sample was directly used for the antiproliferation activity test on MCM-B2 cells. God’s crown fruit can act as an antiproliferation of MCM-B2. The smallest concentration of those samples has inhibited MCM-B2 cell proliferation which is 3.5 ppm crude ethanol extract lower than 100 ppm doxorubicin. The maximum percentage of the antiproliferation activity of crude ethanol extract (56 ppm) was able to inhibit MCM-B2 cell proliferation by 58.28% while doxorubicin (100 ppm) by 31.2%. This is due to the fact that crude ethanol extract has a lot of complex polar phytochemical content. The crude ethanol extract compounds inhibit MCM-B2 cell proliferation synergistically.

Sarcopoterium spinosum (L.) is a medicinal plant traditionally used for the treatment of various diseases including cancer in the Near- and Middle East. The fractions and constituents of the ethanol extract of S. spinosum were screened for in vitro cytotoxic activities on Jurkat (acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia), HeLa (cervical adenocarcinoma), MCF-7 (mammary gland adenocarcinoma), Caco-2 (human colorectal adenocarcinoma), and MDA-MB-231 (mammary gland adenocarcinoma) cell lines using the MTT (3-(dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay. The ethanol extract was subsequently re-extracted with ethyl acetate and in its sub-fraction obtained by column chromatography three compounds (stachydrine, benzalkonium chloride and rutine) were the first time identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. The most active subfraction showed cytotoxic activity against HeLa, MCF-7, and Caco-2 cell lines. The three compounds mentioned, as standards of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) quality, were studied individually and in combination. Cytotoxic activity observed might be due to the presence of benzalkonium chloride and rutin. Benzalkonium chloride showed the strongest growth suppression effect against HeLa cells (IC50 8.10−7 M) and MCF-7 cells (IC50 5.10−6 M). The mixture of stachydrine and benzalkonium chloride allowed a synergistic cytotoxic effect against all tested cancer and normal cells to be obtained. Anti-cancer activity of the plant extract of S. spinosum remains under-investigated, so this research describes how the three major compounds identified in the ethyl acetate extract can exert a significant dose dependent in vitro cytotoxicity.

One way to prevent or inhibit melanin formation is by inhibiting tyrosinase activity (Lloyd,2011). Tyrosinase enzyme is an enzyme that plays a role in the formation of skin pigments or known as melanogenesis. In the process of melanogenesis, the enzyme tyrosinase acts as a catalyst in two different reactions, namely the hydroxylation process of tyrosine to dihydroxy-phenylalanine (L-DOPA) and oxidation of L-DOPA to quinone DOPA. Tyrosinase in skin tissue is activated by solar UV radiation so that it accelerates the process of melanin production (Fais et al.  2009).  This  study  was  conducted  to  determine  the  stability,  effectiveness  of  cream preparations from ethanol extracts of Harendong fruit (Melastoma affine D. Don) as tyrosinase enzyme inhibitors so it can be used as a cosmetic ingredient for whitening or skin lightening. Results Cream with variants of Harendong (Melastoma affine D. Don) ethanol extract was physically stable and formulated with organoleptic test, homogeneity, viscosity, mechanical test, pH, cycling test, and irritation test. Type M / A cream preparations from ethanol extract of Harendong fruit (Melastoma affine D. Don) have a strong / moderate tyrosinase enzyme inhibitor activity with IC50 values of F1 (1%) of 526,192 ppm, F2 (1.5%) ) amounted to 317,534 ppm and F3  (2%)  amounted  to  128,523  ppm.  Keywords: Foemulation,  stability test, activity test, tyrosinase enzyme, herenong fruit (Melastoma affine G.Don)
