This research aimed to produce new 1-[(aryl)(3-amino-5-oxopyrazolidin-4-ylidene) methyl]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid derivatives and check their anticancer effect against the breast cancer MCF-7 cell line. The 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (4) compound was obtained by hydrolyzing ethyl 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate (2) with thiourea and anhydrous potassium carbonate ethanol, which was then treated with ethyl 3-substituted 2-cyanoacrylates (6) in the presence of triethylamine in diethyl formamide to give 1-[2-(ethoxy)carbonyl-2-cyano-1-arylvinyl]-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylic (7a,d). Cyclization of compound 7 with hydrazine hydrate ethanol inferred the association of 1-[(aryl)(3 amino-5-oxopyrazolidin-4-ylidene)methyl-2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinol-3-carboxylates (8a,d). Spectroscopic and micro-analytical techniques such as IR, NMR, and elemental analysis were used to validate the structure of the synthesized organic compounds. The anticancer effects of the synthesized compounds 7a–d and 8a–d were tested by using the MTT assay on the MCF-7 cell line. When compared to the reference compound Dox, the compounds 7b, 7c, 8a, 8b, and 8c demonstrated strong anticancer activity against the MCF-7 cell line. The anticancer effects of the synthesized compounds 7a–d and 8a–d were tested against the MCF-7 cell line, using MTT assay. The compounds 7b, 7c, 8a, 8b, and 8c showed significant anticancer activity compared to the reference compound Dox against the MCF-7 cell line.

Objective: p53, a tumor suppressor gene, is one of the hotspots in the world of the biomedical field. Mutation of p53 gene, which is found in approximately 50% of human cancers, is a key event in carcinogenesis. This project aims to investigate the new characteristics of two p53 mutants, p53-W248 and p53-H175, in MCF-7 cells, so as to provide the experimental basis for understanding the functional alternations of mutant p53. Methods: In this study, MCF-7 cells transfected with p53-H175 or p53-W248 plasmids were used as experimental group and the MCF-7 cells transfected wild type p53 plasmid were used as control group. Then the biological effects at the cellular level were investigated using 3-(4.5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, flow cytometry analysis and cell scratch test. Results: MTT assay showed that p53-W248 might promote cell proliferation in MCF-7 cells. The results of flow cytometry indicated that no significant effect on cell cycle progression and cell apoptosis by p53-H175 or p53-W248 in cells. The cell scratch test showed that p53-H175 could increase the ability of cell migration. Conclusion: p53-H175 could lead to the promotion of tumor cell migration, while p53-W248 may promote tumor cell proliferation. p53-H175 and p53-W248 might have acquired some new characteristics of oncogenes.

Investigations into the chemical constituents of the seeds of the neglected tuber crop Pachyrhizus tuberosus (Leguminosae) resulted in the isolation of seven components: five rotenoids [12a-hydroxyerosone (1), 12a-hydroxydolineone (2), erosone (3), 12a-hydroxyrotenone (4) and rotenone (6)], a phenylfuranocoumarin [pachyrrhizine (5)] and an isoflavanone [neotenone (7)]. The compounds were isolated using several chromatography techniques and characterized and verified by NMR and HPLC/MS. The MTT assay was used to examine the selective cytotoxic effects of the methanolic P. tuberosus extract and isolated compounds in two human cancer cell lines [breast (MCF-7) and colorectal (HCT-116)] and in non-transformed human fibroblasts (MRC-5); IC50 values were calculated. The methanolic P. tuberosus extract displayed respectable cytotoxic effects against HCT-116 and MCF-7 cells with IC50 values of 7.3 and 6.3 μg/mL, respectively. Of the compounds, 6 exacted greatest cytotoxicity and selectivity towards the cancer cell lines tested, yielding IC50 values of 0.3 μg/mL against both MCF-7 and HCT-116 cells, and a 6-fold reduced activity against MRC-5 fibroblasts. Compound 4 also demonstrated cytotoxicity against MCF-7 and HCT-116 (1.1 and 1.8 μg/mL, respectively), and reduced cytotoxicity towards MRC-5 cells (7.5 μg/mL). The results revealed from the in vitro cytotoxic MTT assay are worthy of further antitumor investigation.

Purpose: To develop a high performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC procedure for quantitation of apigenin in ethanol extract of Matricaria chamomilla (Babunaj) flowers, and to evaluate the extract for in vitro cytotoxic effect on MCF-7 cell lines. Methods: Quantification of apigenin was carried out using a CAMAG TLC system. A combination of toluene, ethyl acetate and formic acid (4.5:3.5:0.2 v/v/v) was used as mobile phase, with densitometry detection at 336 nm. The HPTLC procedure was subjected to validation as per ICH guidelines. The cytotoxicity of the extract was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Results: A sharp apigenin band at Rf of 0.51 was obtained, and the content of apigenin in the extract was 0.062 % w/w. The detection limit (LOD) and quantification limit (LOQ) were 0.19 and 0.57 ng/band, respectively. MTT assay results indicate that M. chamomilla was cytotoxic to Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF-7) cells, with half-maximal concentration (IC50) of 74 µg/mL. Conclusion: The developed HPTLC method is linear, precise, accurate and specific for the determination of apigenin. M. chamomilla exerts cytotoxic effect on MCF-7 cell line via induction of apoptosis.

<p align="left">The anticancer activity of crude extracts of the leaves of <em>Tridax procumbens, </em>against two breast cancer cell lines-MCF-7 (benign) and MDA-MB-231 (metastatic) were investigated and an attempt was made to identify the anticancer principle. The extracts with methanol (TPM), ethanol (TPE) and chloroform (TPC) as solvents were screened for cytotoxicity by MTT assay against MCF-7 cells. The effective extract was further evaluated on MDA-MB-231 cells. Among the three extracts, TPC was effective at an IC<sub>50</sub> value of 136 µg/ml and 129 µg/ml on MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells respectively. Phytochemical analysis of the extract showed the presence of only steroids and terpenoids and their concentration was high (77.4% w/w). HPLC-MS of the chloroform soluble crude extract revealed a major peak (57.59% concentration) at a retention time of 4.78 min and MS data of this peak revealed presence of two fragments of molecular weight 475.80 and 701.80. The compounds were identified to be 3β, 9β-Dihydroxy-18α-oleanan-28-oic acid, a derivative of oleanolic acid and 3β, 28-Bis (cinnamoyl) betulin respectively, both from the triterpenoid family. </p>

Curcumin (CUR) is an attractive polyphenol for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and anticancer properties. Poor solubility in water and sensitivity against sunlight are the most challenging characteristics in the development of CUR for clinical use. The aim is to develop oral lipid-based bioactive self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (Bio-SNEDDSs) for curcumin as a candidate for cancer therapy. Bio-SNEDDSs containing black seed oil, medium-chain mono- and diglycerides, and surfactants were prepared as CUR delivery vehicles. The morphology, droplet size, physical stability, encapsulation efficiency, risk of precipitation, lipid digestion, antioxidant activity, and antimicrobial activity were evaluated for the representative formulations. Finally, an MTT assay was performed on MCF-7 cells to determine the cytotoxic effect of the different formulations. The results showed lower droplet size (28.53 nm) and higher drug-loading (CUR 20 mg, thymoquinone 1.2 mg) for the representative Bio-SNEDDS (black seed oil/Imwitor 988/KolliphorEL (35/15/50) % w/w), along with a transparent appearance upon aqueous dilution. The dynamic dispersion and in-vitro lipolysis data proved that the Bio-SNEDDS was able to keep the CUR in a solubilized form in the gastrointestinal tract. From the antioxidant and antimicrobial studies, it was suggested that the Bio-SNEDDS had the highest activity for disease control. The MTT assay showed that the representative Bio-SNEDDS treatment led to a reduction of cell viability of MCF-7 cells compared to pure CUR and conventional SNEDDSs. A Bio-SNEDDS with elevated entrapment efficiency, antioxidant/antimicrobial activities, and an antiproliferative effect could be the best anticancer drug candidate for potential oral delivery.
