Abstrakt: To the best of our knowledge, there have been no phytochemical studies concerning the wild plant Leontodon hispidulus Boiss. (Asteraceae). Optimization of the green extraction process of the plant aerial parts, identification of main phenolic compounds, evaluation of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities of the optimized extract have been carried out. HPLC-analysis was performed using 95% ethanolic extract. 3-Level Box-Behnken Design was applied for optimization of extraction yield and total phenolic content using 3-factors (ethanol/water ratio, material/solvent ratio and extraction time). Antioxidant, anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities were evaluated by ABTS-assay, prostate and cervical carcinoma human cell lines and carrageenan-induced rat paw edema model, respectively. HPLC-analysis showed the presence of quercetin, rutin, kaempferol, chlorogenic and ρ-coumaric acids. Increasing both ethanol/water ratio and material/solvent ratio decreased the yield, while, it increased by prolongation of the extraction time. High material/solvent ratio increased the phenolic content. The optimized extract showed high total phenolic content (104.18 µg/mg) using 201 ml of 74.5% ethanol/water at 72 h and good biological activities. Antioxidant activity was found to be 41.89 mg Trolox-equivalent/gm, with 80% free radicals inhibition. For anti-inflammatory activity, 100 mg/kg of the extract inhibited the edema in rats by 83.5% after 4 h of carrageenan injection as compared to 81.7% inhibition by indomethacin. Prostate carcinoma cell line was more sensitive to the anticancer activity of the extract than cervical carcinoma cell line (IC 50  = 16.5 and 23 μg/ml, respectively). The developed extraction procedure proved to be efficient in enriching the extract with phenolic compounds with promising anticancer, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities.
