Popis: Introduction: Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) is considered one of the deadliest cancers which grow rapidly worldwide. Fucoxanthin can be acquired from edible brown seaweeds, reported that fucoxanthin has numerous physiological functions and biological abilities, and various medicinal properties. Aim: To evaluate the anticarcinogenic efficiency of fucoxanthin against the Human Hepatoma Cell Line (HepG2). Materials and Methods: This in-vitro examination and research was carried from June 2018 to August 2018, at Alagappa University, Karaikudi, Tamil Nadu, India. Fucoxanthin at different concentrations was taken to demonstrate its antiproliferative potential and its cytotoxic effect. In this present examination, based on the outcome of the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, 80 µM and 100 µM were chosen for further in-vitro studies. It was noted that remarkable leakage of Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) and a noteworthy decrease in the Glutathione (GSH) content of 80µ M and 100µM of fucoxanthin treated HepG2 cells. Under light and fluorescence microscopic examination, there was a significant reduction in cell growth and cell proliferation in the fucoxanthin-treated HepG2 cells. Data were presented as the mean±standard deviation. The one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey’s multiple comparison method were used to find the level of significance. Results: The human HepG2 to be studied and analysed were divided into group I: control group; group II: comprising those cells treated with fucoxanthin in concentration of 80 µM; group III: comprising those cells treated with fucoxanthine in concentration of 100 µM. The results of the MTT assay put forward that fucoxanthin has the cytotoxic and antiproliferative potential against HepG2 further fucoxanthin significantly alter the marker enzymes level (p-value
