Abstract

Background: Phytochemicals form the basis of research and development of new molecules leading to the development of new novel drugs. In the oncology sector, plants have contributed more than 60% of the anti-cancer drugs, directly or indirectly. The present study Aims and Objectives: was conducted with the objective to explore the antitumor activity of various extracts obtained from dried roots of Centaurea behen L., dried fruits/beads of Elaeocarpus ganitrus Roxb., dried roots of Gloriosa superba L. and dried leaves of Ficus religiosa L. against human lung cancer (A 549) cell lines. Method: Phytoconstituents were extracted by Soxhlet method using hexane, chloroform, methanol and water as solvents. MTT assay was used to nd the anti-proliferative potential of these plant extracts. The trypan blue dye exclusion test was used to determine the number of viable cells present in a cell suspension. Cytotoxic activity was also evaluated against non-cancerous cell lines (MCF-10A). Results: On A-549 cell lines, 93% cell death was reported with G. superba aqueous extract followed by E. ganitrus methanol extract and F. religiosa hexane extract and C. behen aqueous extract with 87%, 81.61% and 75 % cell death respectively. However, none of the extracts showed cytotoxic effect upon testing against normal non-cancerous cell lines (MCF- 10A). Conclusions: The results of the current ndings prove that phytoconstituents present in these plant extracts have high anticancer potential. This study strongly suggests the possibility of medicinal plants as an important source of anticancer drug development.
探索仙人掌、皂荚、芒柄花和薜荔对人类肺癌(A-549)细胞株的抗癌潜力
背景:植物化学物质是研究和开发新分子、研制新型药物的基础。在肿瘤学领域,植物直接或间接贡献了 60% 以上的抗癌药物。本研究的目的和目标:本研究旨在探讨从半枝莲(Centaurea behen L.)干根、崖柏(Elaeocarpus ganitrus Roxb.)干果/珠、鹅掌楸(Gloriosa superba L.)干根和榕树(Ficus religiosa L.)干叶中提取的各种提取物对人类肺癌(A 549)细胞系的抗肿瘤活性。研究方法以正己烷、氯仿、甲醇和水为溶剂,用索氏提取法提取植物成分。MTT 分析法用于  这些植物提取物的抗增殖潜力。胰蓝染料排除试验用于确定细胞悬浮液中存活细胞的数量。此外,还对非癌细胞系(MCF-10A)的细胞毒活性进行了评估。结果在 A-549 细胞系中,G. superba 水提取物的细胞死亡率为 93%,其次是 E. ganitrus 甲醇提取物、F. religiosa 己烷提取物和 C. behen 水提取物,细胞死亡率分别为 87%、81.61% 和 75%。然而,在对正常非癌细胞株(MCF- 10A)进行测试时,没有一种提取物显示出细胞毒性作用。结论目前 ndings 的结果证明,这些植物提取物中的植物成分具有很高的抗癌潜力。这项研究有力地证明了药用植物作为抗癌药物开发的重要来源的可能性。
