Abstrakt: Jacareubin is a xanthone isolated from the heartwood of Calophyllum brasiliense with antibacterial and gastroprotective properties and the intention for clinical use as an anti-cancer treatment (due to the similar chemical structure to other anti-neoplastic drugs) requires an investigation of whether this compound can generate adverse effects on non-transformed cells. Jacareubin (0.5-1000μM in DMSO) was more cytotoxic on phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-stimulated normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs; IC 50 at 72h by MTT: 85.9μM) than on G 0 phase-PBMCs (IC 50 315.6μM) using trypan blue exclusion and formazan metabolism assays. Jacareubin had lower toxicity on PBMCs than Taxol (1μM). Jacareubin presented cytostatic activity because it inhibited PHA-stimulated PBMCs proliferation (from 2.5μM; CFSE dilution and replication index). Jacareubin induced PBMCs arrest in G 0 /G 1 phase of the cell cycle (from 5μM) as evaluated by DNA content. Moreover, Jacareubin generated genotoxicity by breaking DNA strands selectively in PHA-stimulated PBMCs (from 5μM) rather than on resting PBMCs using the single-cell gel electrophoresis assay and increasing the frequency of micronucleated (MN) PBMCs in vitro (from 5μM) and frequency of hypodiploid cells (from 10μM). When 100mg/kg Jacareubin was injected i.p. into mice (a fifth of the LD 50 ; 0.548g/kg. Approximately to 300μM in vitro), we observe no increase in the MN level in bone marrow cells. Jacareubin can be consider for further anti-tumoural activity due to its preferential genotoxic, cytotoxic and cytostatic actions on proliferating cells rather than on resting cells and the lack of in vivo genotoxicity.
