Targeting metastatic melanoma: Pumpkin seed extracts as potential antineoplastic agents
In this study, the fatty acid composition and antitumor potential of pumpkin seed extracts, obtained through ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and pressurized ethanol extraction (PEE) against melanoma cells was studied. An experimental design was employed to optimize parameters in both methods and gas chromatography identified the extracts based on fatty acids. SK-MEL-28 and A375 melanoma cells were treated with UAE and PEE extracts and assessed for viability (MTT assay, acridine orange staining), redox profile (NOx, PSH, NPSH), and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). The highest extraction yields were 48.99 % for UAE and 30.28 % for PEE. Major fatty acids included methyl linoleate (∼ 47 %) and methyl cis-9 oleate (∼ 25 %). Extracts reduced melanoma cell viability, increased NOx, and decreased MMP, particularly with UAE-derived extracts, highlighting the significance of the extraction method. These effects may be linked to altered redox balance, reduced MMP, and tumor cell death.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Supercritical Fluids is an international journal devoted to the fundamental and applied aspects of supercritical fluids and processes. Its aim is to provide a focused platform for academic and industrial researchers to report their findings and to have ready access to the advances in this rapidly growing field. Its coverage is multidisciplinary and includes both basic and applied topics.
Thermodynamics and phase equilibria, reaction kinetics and rate processes, thermal and transport properties, and all topics related to processing such as separations (extraction, fractionation, purification, chromatography) nucleation and impregnation are within the scope. Accounts of specific engineering applications such as those encountered in food, fuel, natural products, minerals, pharmaceuticals and polymer industries are included. Topics related to high pressure equipment design, analytical techniques, sensors, and process control methodologies are also within the scope of the journal.
