Popis: | Background To determine the phytochemical constituents, antioxidant, and anticancer activities of Leea indica leaf extracts on DU-145 and PC-3 human prostate cancer cell lines. Methods Leaf sample was subjected to Soxhlet extraction method with increasing polarity of solvents, namely, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol, ethanol, and aqueous. Phytochemical screening was done using different biochemical tests. Quantitative analysis for phenol was determined by Folin–Ciocalteu reagent method. The antioxidant activity was tested using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, ferric ion reducing power assay, and phosphomolybdenum assay. In vitro anticancer activity on DU-145 and PC-3 human prostate cancer cell lines was evaluated by (3-(4, 5-dimethyl thiazole-2yl)-2, 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) MTT assay. Results Phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of phyto-constituents like alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, phenols, lignins, saponins, sterols, tannins, anthraquinone, and reducing sugar. Methanol and ethanol extracts exhibited higher phenolic content as compare to aqueous extract. Antioxidant capacities were shown highest in methanol and ethanol extracts based on the test performed. The methanol and ethanol leaf extracts were found to be selectively cytotoxic in vitro to (DU-145 and PC-3) prostate cancer cell lines with IC 50 values 529.44±42.07μg/mL and 677.11±37.01μg/mL for DU-145 and 547.55±33.52μg/mL and 631.99±50.24μg/mL for PC-3 respectively, while it had no cytotoxic effect on normal mice embryo fibroblast cells. Conclusion The results indicate that Leea indica was a promising antioxidant and anticancer agent for DU-145 and PC-3 human prostate cancer cell lines. However, further studies are needed to conclude its therapeutic use. |
