Previous research has shown that some compounds in leaves and seeds of sugar apple have a cytotoxic activity. The aim of this research was to determine the cytotoxicity of semipolar fraction of ethanolic extract from sugar apple stem bark (Annona squamosa L.) on T47D cancer cells. The semipolar fraction of ethanolic extract from sugar apple stem bark was collected by fractionation using Vacuum Liquid Chromatography (VLC) with hexane:ethyl acetic (9:1, 8:2, 7:3, and  6:4)  as  mobile  phase.  Cytotoxicity from the fractions of five different concentration namely; 25, 50, 100, 150, and 250, µg/mL was measured by MTT assay. The potency of the cytotoxicity was defined by the ability of the fraction to inhibit the growth of T47D cells indicated by the value of IC50. Qualitative analysis of contained compounds in the fraction was done by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) method using silica gel F 254 as a stationary phase and hexane:ethyl acetic (7:3) as a mobile phase. UV 254 and 366 nm lamp also Dragendorff, citroboric, and FeCl3 spray reagents were used to visualize the spots of the secondary metabolites. The result proved that the semipolar fraction of ethanolic extract from sugar apple stem bark showed potential cytotoxicity on T47D cancer cells with IC50value of 70,77 µg/mL. Qualitative analysis showed that the fraction contained flavonoids and alkaloids which is presumably responsible for its cytotoxic activity.

Doxorubicin is one of chemotherapeutic agent widely used in breast cancer treatment, but in high dose doxorubicin gives negative side effect, including vomit, nausea, immune suppression, and cardiac toxicity. This toxicity hopefully could be reduced by combination chemotherapy using natural herbs such as ciplukan herb. This research was conducted to explore cytotoxic activity of single ciplukan herbs ethanolic extract and its combination with doxorubicin on T47D breast cancer cells. Cytotoxic activity of ciplukan herbs ethanolic extract only and its combination with doxorubicin were tested on T47D cells using MTT assay to obtain IC50 value and combination index (CI), respectively. Single extract showed cytotoxic activity on T47D cells with IC50 value of was 160 µg/ml. Thus, combination treatment from ciplukan herbs ethanolic extract and doxorubicin showed synergistic effect (CI<1,0). This effect was reached at concentration of ciplukan herbs ethanolic extract-doxorubicin 80 μg/ml- 2 nM, 80 μg/ml-4 nM, and 80 μg/ml-8 nM. This research indicated that ciplukan herbs ethanolic extract is potential to be applied as co-chemotherapeutic agent in breast cancer therapy.Key word : ciplukan herbs, doxorubicin, co-chemotherapy, T47D cells

Doxorubicin, primary chemoteurapeutic agent used for breast cancer treatment, is known to have various side effects included multi drug resistance (MDR) phenomenon. Therefore, exploration of co-chemotherapeutic agent is important to be conducted in order to prevent MDR. Secang (Caesalpinia sappan L.) which contains active compounds brazilin and brazilein, is proven to have activity as anticancer. The aim of this study is to determine the potency of Caesalpinia sappan L. ethanolic extract (CEE) as co-chemotherapeutic agent of doxorubicin and its mechanism through apoptosis induction on T47D breast cancer cells. Caesalpinia sappan L. heartwood powder was macerated with ethanol 70%. The cytotoxic effect of CEE alone and its combination with doxorubicin was analyzed using MTT assay. Apoptosis assay was done by flowcytometry-annexin V method. CEE showed cytotoxic activity on T47D cells with IC50 value of 35 µg/ml, while combinatorial test showed that all of combination doses of CEE and doxorubicin gave synergistic effect. Flowcytometry-annexin V assay proved that treatment of CEE induced apoptosis of doxorubicin. Based on these results, we conclude that Caesalpinia sappan L. heartwood ethanolic extract is potential to be developed as co-chemotherapeutic agent of doxorubicin.Keywords : Caesalpinia sappan L., doxorubicin, apoptosis, T47D cells

Mangrove plants as traditional medicine have long been used by the society for the therapy of anticancer diseases. So far, the potency of mangrove plants as anticancer has not been studied intensively. The methanol extract of R. mucronata stem bark has cytotoxic activity on myeloma cells. This study aims to determine the isolates of the ethyl acetate fraction of the methanol extract of the stem bark of R. mucronata and R. apiculata, and to examine the potency of cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 and T47D cells. The powder of the stem bark of R. mucronata and R. apiculata were extracted with methanol by maceration, and then the methanol extract was fractionated consecutively using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. Ethyl acetate fraction was then purified by column chromatography with a diameter of 2 cm and a height of 30 cm with a static phase in the form of silica gel 60 (0.063-0.2 mm) Merck 7734 and eluent n-hexane:ethyl acetate (6: 4, 5: 5, 6: 4, 7: 3, 8: 2, 9: 1) and n-hexane: methanol (9,5: 0,5) 10 ml each. The eluates that produce the same number and pattern of stains were combined into one isolate. Then the eluate was evaporated at room temperature. Then the purification results of the extract R. mucronata were isolated using preparative TLC with 0.25 mm GF254 silica gel as static phase and n-hexane mobile phase: ethyl acetate (6: 4), while the apiculata extract with n-hexane mobile phase: ethyl acetate (5: 5). The results of the stain separation of the compound were scraped off and separated from the static phase using a solvent. The purity of isolates compound was examined using TLC in the static phase of silica gel GF254 0.25 mm. The qualitative test results of the ethyl acetate fraction of R. apiculata stem bark with an NMR spectrophotometer showed a composition of cis-3- (3,5-dihydroxyphenyl) acrylic acid, while the ethyl acetate fraction of R. mucronata stem bark contained n-hexan-3-ol compounds. The cytotoxicity test of ethanol extract, n-hexane fraction, ethyl acetate fraction and ethanol extract was carried out on MCF-7 and T47D cells using the MTT method. The results proved that the ethanol extract, n-hexane fraction, ethyl acetate fraction and ethanol fraction from the ethanol extract of R. mucronata and R. apiculata stem bark, based on cytotoxic activity, were inactive against MCF-7 and T47D cells.

An improved compound of pentagamavunone-1 (PGV-1), chemoprevention-curcumin analog 1.1 (CCA-1.1), has been synthesized and proven to have antiproliferative effects against breast cancer cells. This study is designed to investigate the potency of CCA-1.1 alone and in combination with doxorubicin (Dox) on T47D cells in comparison with that of PGV-1. We used the MTT assay to assess cytotoxic activity. Propidium iodide (PI), annexin-V–PI, and DCFDA staining were respectively used to determine cell cycle profiles, apoptosis, and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Senescent cells were identified using the SA-b-galactosidase assay. Our results revealed that CCA-1.1 possesses cytotoxic effects similar to those of PGV-1 on T47D cells. Synergistic effects during co-treatment with Dox were also observed. CCA-1.1 arrested cell cycle progression at the G2/M phase and limited sub-G1 accumulation, which is correlated with apoptosis. CCA-1.1 alone and in combination with Dox increased senescence and intracellular ROS to a similar level to those achieved by PGV-1. CCA-1.1 alone and in combination with Dox enhanced cytotoxic activity toward T47 cells compared to PGV-1. Thus, this curcumin analog may be a potential chemotherapeutic/co-chemotherapeutic candidate for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer therapy.
