In the field of nano-biotechnology, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) share a status of high repute owing to their remarkable medicinal values. Biological synthesis of environment-friendly AgNPs using plant extracts has emerged as the beneficial alternative approach to chemical synthesis. In the current study, we have synthesized biogenic silver nanoparticles (PG-AgNPs) using the peel extract of Punica granatum as a reducing and stabilizing agent. The as-synthesized PG-AgNPs were characterized and evaluated for their antibacterial and anticancer potential. UV–Visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) confirmed the formation of biogenic PG-AgNPs. The antibacterial potential was assessed against the biofilm of Listeria monocytogenes. The PG-AgNPs were efficacious against sessile bacteria and their biofilm as well. The as-synthesized nanoparticles at sub-MIC values showed dose-dependent inhibition of biofilm formation. Corroborating results were observed under crystal violet assay, Congo red staining, Confocal microscopy and SEM analysis. The anticancer ability of the nanoparticles was evaluated against MDA-MB-231 metastatic breast cancer cells. As evident from the MTT results, PG-AgNPs significantly reduced the cell viability in a dose-dependent manner. Exposure of MDA-MB-231 cells led to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Morphological changes and DNA fragmentation showed the strong positive effect of PG-AgNPs on the induction of apoptosis. Collectively, the as-synthesized PG-AgNPs evolved with synergistically emerged attributes that were effective against L. monocytogenes and also inhibited its biofilm formation; moreover, the system displayed lower cytotoxic manifestation towards mammalian cells. In addition, the PG-AgNPs embodies intriguing anticancer potential against metastatic breast cancer cells.  相似文献

Cerium oxide nanoparticles are associated with anticancer effects. While protecting normal cells, these nanoparticles exert their anticancer effects via oxidative stress and apoptosis in the cancer cells. In this study, the anticancer properties of nanoceria on fibrosarcoma cell line are evaluated. Cerium oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by the coprecipitation method and their anticancer effects on mouse fibrosarcoma tumor cells (WEHI164) were investigated. Viability assay was evaluated by MTT, and the DC-FDA assay performed for the detection of reactive oxygen species. For apoptosis assay, the annexin V/PI test was done as well as measuring the mRNA and protein expression levels of Bax and Bcl2 by real-time PCR and western blot method, respectively. Characterization of nanoceria reveals that synthesized nanoceria has cubic floruit structure with a size of about 30 nm. Toxicity assessment results show that nanoceria increases ROS levels and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner in cancer cells (WEHI164), whereas low levels of toxicity were observed in normal cells (L929), even at the concentrations above 250 µg/ml in MTT assay. Real-time PCR and western blot assays showed that nanoceria could significantly increase the Bax expression in cancer cells. The results showed that nanoceria could act as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of fibrosarcoma.  相似文献

BackgroundBiogenic nanoparticles are gaining attention due to their low toxicity and numerous biomedical applications. Present study aimed to compare the potential anticancer activity of two biogenic silver nanoparticles (bAgNPs and pAgNPs) against human cervical cancer cell lines (HeLa).MethodsbAgNPs were synthesized using Acinetobacter sp. whereas pAgNPs were synthesized using aqueous root extract of Curcuma aromatica. Effect of these nanoparticles on HeLa cells viability was studied using MTT assay and colony formation assay. Anticancer potential was determined using fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry studies. Bio-compatibility studies were performed against peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).ResultsBoth the nanoparticles showed 50 % viability of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) when used at high concentration (200 μg/mL). IC50 for bAgNPs and pAgNPs against HeLa cells were 17.4 and 14 μg/mL respectively. Colony formation ability of Hela cells was reduced on treatment with both nanoparticles. Acridine orange and ethidium bromide staining demonstrated that bAgNPs were cytostatic whereas pAgNPs were apoptotic. JC-1 dye staining revealed that the mitochondrial membrane potential was affected on treatment with pAgNPs while it remained unchanged on bAgNPs treatment. Flow cytometry confirmed cell cycle arrest in HeLa cells on treatment with nanoparticles further leading to apoptosis in case of pAgNPs. About 77 and 58 % HeLa cells were found in subG1 phase on treatment with bAgNPs and pAgNPs respectively. bAgNPs showed cytostatic effect on HeLa cells arresting the cell growth in subG1 phase, whereas, pAgNPs triggered death of HeLa cells through mitochondrial membrane potential impairment and apoptosis.ConclusionOverall, bAgNPs and pAgNPs could be safe and showed potential to be used as anticancer nano-antibiotics against human cervical cancer cells.  相似文献

The current study aimed at developing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) using the aqueous extract of the medicinal plant Commiphora wightii. The phytosynthesized gold nanoparticles (Cw@AuNPs) were evaluated for their anticancer activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cell model. The formation of AuNPs by Commiphora wightii leaf extract was confirmed by UV–vis spectra where their surface plasmon resonance was found at 533 nm. Further characterization of Cw@AuNPs was done by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, and fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. In vitro anticancer potential of thus obtained AuNPs was evaluated against MCF-7 and where the IC50 was found to be 66.11 μg/mL Further, apoptotic studies were carried out using ethidium bromide dual staining, DNA fragmentation, comet assay, and flow cytometry studies. Results revealed that Cw@AuNPs at higher concentration significantly increased the apoptotic cells when compared to control cells. Cell cycle analysis of MCF-7 cells confirmed the cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase. These results demonstrate that the biosynthesized Cw@AuNPs appear to be promising for therapeutical applications against breast cancer.  相似文献

An efficient synthesis of substituted pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines was carried out and evaluated for in vitro anticancer activity against five cancer cell lines, namely hepatic cancer (HepG-2), prostate cancer (PC-3), colon cancer (HCT-116), breast cancer (MCF-7), and lung cancer (A-549) cell lines. Regarding HepG-2, PC-3, HCT-116 cancer cell lines, 7-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(3-methyl-5-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-5-(p-tolyl)- pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-one (5a) exhibited strong, more potent anticancer (IC50: 0.3, 6.6 and 7?µM) relative to the standard doxorubicin (IC50: 0.6, 6.8 and 12.8?µM), respectively. Kinase inhibitory assessment of 5a showed promising inhibitory activity against three kinases namely PDGFR β, EGFR, and CDK4/cyclin D1 at two concentrations 50 and 100?µM in single measurements. Further, a molecular docking study for compound 5a was performed to verify the binding mode towards the EGFR and CDK4/cyclin D1 kinases.  相似文献

It is now widely accepted that dietary phytochemicals inhibit cancer progression and enhance the effects of conventional chemotherapy. In this report, we comparatively studied the cellular and molecular aspects of apoptosis induction by the methanolic extract of Baneh fruit skin in comparison to Doxorubicin (Dox), a well-known anticancer drug, in human breast cancer T47D cells. The MTT assay was used to determine the antiproliferative effects. The flow cytometric and microscopic analyses were done to evaluate the apoptosis induction. Furthermore, western blot analyses have been done to study the role of key molecular players of apoptosis including caspase 3 and PARP. The Baneh extract showed strong antiproliferative activity against T47D cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner that was comparable to and even stronger than Dox in certain concentrations. Analysis of Baneh-treated cells by flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy indicated strong apoptosis induction and nuclear morphological alterations similar to or greater than Dox. Finally, molecular analysis of apoptosis by western blotting proved activation of caspase 3 followed by poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) cleavage more efficiently in Baneh than in Dox treated cancer cells. These findings indicate that Baneh extract contains phytochemicals which act as inhibitor of cell proliferation and inducer of apoptosis in human breast cancer T47D cells that makes it a potentially good candidate for new anticancer drug development.  相似文献

Synthesis of gold nanoparticles was carried out using Pongammia pinnata (pongam) leaf extract and their anticancer and antimycobacterial activities were studied. Gold nanoparticle formation was confirmed by UV–vis, XRD and HR-TEM. The anticancer efficacies of the biogenic gold nanoparticles were analyzed using cytotoxicity, cell morphology analysis, oxidative DNA damage, apoptosis detection and toxicity studies. Biogenic gold nanoparticles inhibited breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) proliferation with an efficacy of IC50 of 1.85 μg/mL. The antimycobacterial potential of the biogenic gold nanoparticles was screened against M. tuberculosis by Luciferase Reporter Phage (LRP) assay. The gold nanoparticles showed inhibition against sensitive M. tuberculosis with the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 10 μg/mL whereas no inhibition was found against the rifampicin resistant M. tuberculosis.  相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a foremost mesenchymal bone neoplasm and it can occur at any age with survival rate is nearly 2–8 times lesser in elders than in teenagers. The clinical therapies for cancer treatment have gradually becoming outdated because of the developments of nano-medicine and multi-targeted drug-delivery. In this work, we green synthesized the zinc oxide nanoparticles from the Cassia auriculata flower (AS-ZnONPs) extract and evaluated its antimicrobial and in vitro anticancer potential against the OS MG-63 cells. The synthesized AS-ZnONPs were confirmed and characterized by using UV–vis spectroscopy, XRD, FE-SEM, and photoluminescence techniques. The antimicrobial activity of AS-ZnONPs was studied by disc diffusion technique. The viability of AS-ZnONPs treated MG-63 cells were examined by MTT assay. The apoptotic cells in the AS-ZnONPs treated MG-63 cells were assayed by dual staining. The MMP status of AS-ZnONPs treated cells were tested by Rh-123 staining. The cell adhesion assay was performed to detect the anticancer effects of AS-ZnONPs against MG-63 cells. The results of UV–vis spectroscopy, XRD, FE-SEM, and photoluminescence techniques proved the formation of AS-ZnONPs and it has the hexagonal wurtzite structures. AS-ZnONPs displayed the potent antimicrobial activity against the tested microbial strains. The AS-ZnONPs were appreciably inhibited the cell viability of MG-63 cells. The outcomes of fluorescence staining proved that AS-ZnONPs reduced the MMP and prompted the apoptosis in MG-63 cells. In conclusion, our discoveries demonstrated that the formulated AS-ZnONPs has the potent antimicrobial and in vitro anticancer activity against the MG-63 cells. The AS-ZnONPs could be potent chemotherapeutic agent in the future to treat the OS.  相似文献

Silver nanoparticles are the most desirable nanoparticles broadly used in diverse fields. This study intends to investigate the anticancer properties of synthesized silver/Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG nanoparticles (Ag-LNPs) as a reducing and stabilizing agent in the synthesis process. To prepare silver/Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG nanoparticles, 1 mg/ml cell lysate of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and 1 mM silver nitrate solution were mixed and incubated for 72 h. XRD, FTIR, and TEM methods were used for nanoparticle characterization. MTT assay and annexin/PI staining were employed to analyze the toxicity and apoptotic cells levels of Ag-LNPs, respectively. TEM showed that these nanoparticles are spherical shaped about 233 nm in size. FTIR spectroscopy demonstrated that Ag-LNPs were functionalized with biomolecules. XRD pattern showed high purity and face-centered crystal structure of Ag-LNPs. MTT assay revealed that the percentages of HT-29 live cells significantly reduced in the high concentration of Ag-LNPs. Annexin/PI staining showed that these nanoparticles could lead HT-29 cells to apoptosis. This study showed the new Ag-LNP-synthesizing method using Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG as a cost-effective and efficient approach. Also, it showed that these nanoparticles can be considered as a potential active agent for biomedical applications and drug delivery due to their anticancer activities.

Oleanolic acid (OA) and glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) are natural products with anticancer effects. Cinnamic acid (CA) and its derivatives also exhibited certain anticancer activity. In order to improve the anticancer activity of OA and GA, we designed and synthesized a series of novel OA-CA ester derivatives and GA-CA ester derivatives by using molecular hybridization approach. The 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to assess their in vitro cytotoxicity on three cell lines (HeLa (cervical cancer), MCF-7 (breast cancer) and L-O2 (a normal hepatic cell)). Among the evaluated compounds, 3o presented the strongest selective cytotoxicity on HeLa cells (IC50 = 1.35 μM) and showed no inhibitory activity against MCF-7 cells (IC50 > 100 μM) and L-O2 cells (IC50 > 100 μM), and 3e presented the strongest selective inhibition of the MCF-7 cells (IC50 = 1.79 μM). What’s more, compound 2d also showed very strong selective inhibitory activity against HeLa cells (IC50 = 1.55 μM). The further research using Hoechst 33342, AO/EB dual-staining, flow cytometric analysis and DCFH-DA fluorescent dye staining assay presented that 2d and 3o could induce HeLa cells apoptosis and autophagy.  相似文献

Small molecules that can target human cancers have been highly sought to increase the anticancer efficacy, the present work describes the design and synthesis of novel series of five quinuclidinone derivatives (2a-2e). Their anticancer activities were investigated against breast cancer cells MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells harboring mutant p53 and normal breast counterpart MCF-12a. Derivative 2e reduced proliferation of MCF-7 and MCF-12a while it has no effect on MDA-MB-231. Derivative 2e induced apoptosis in MCF-7 cells which is further confirmed by TUNEL assay and it reduced the percentage of cell in G2/M phase as confirmed by increased expression of cyclin B and reduced expression of cyclin D1. Derivative 2e reduced expression levels of Mdm2, Akt and ERK1/2 by and increased expression level of p53. Moreover, the apoptosis induction by 2e was also inhibited by PFT-α as evidenced by non-significant induction of apoptosis after treatment of MCF-7 cells with both derivative 2e and PFT-α. In addition, docking study reveals that derivative 2e has a binding pattern close to the pattern observed in the structure of the lead fragment 5,6-dimethoxy-2-methylbenzothiazole bound to T-p53C-Y220C. The above findings demonstrate that derivative 2e induces apoptosis in MCF-7 cells via targeting p53 which merits further development.  相似文献

The present study focused on the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles from Coriander sativum (CS) containing structural polymers, phenolic compounds and glycosidic bioactive macromolecules. Plant phenolic compounds can act as antioxidants, lignin, and attractants like flavonoids and carotenoids. Henceforth, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared extracellularly by the combinatorial action of stabilizing and reduction of the CS leaf extract. The biologically synthesized CS-AgNPs were studied by UV-spectroscopy, zeta potential determination, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis to characterize and confirm the formation of crystalline nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles demonstrated strong antimicrobial activity against all microbial strains examined with varying degrees. The scavenging action on free radicals by CS-AgNPs showed strong antioxidant efficiency with superoxide and hydroxyl radicals at different concentrations as compared with standard ascorbic acid. The presence of in vitro anticancer effect was confirmed at different concentrations on the MCF-7 cell line as revealed with decrease in cell viability which was proportionately related to the concentration of CS-AgNPs illustrating the toxigenic nature of synthesized nanoparticles on cancerous cells.  相似文献

The synthesis of metal nanoparticles by green methods attained enormous attention in recent years due to its easiness, non-toxicity, and eco-friendly nature. In the present study, noble metal nanoparticles such as silver and gold were prepared using an aqueous leaf extract of a medicinal plant, Bauhinia purpurea. The leaf extract performed as both reducing and stabilizing agents for the development of nanoparticles. The formations of silver and gold nanoparticles were confirmed by observing the surface plasmon resonance peaks at 430 nm and 560 nm, respectively, in UV–Vis absorption spectrum. Various properties of nanoparticles were demonstrated using the characterization techniques such as FTIR, XRD, TEM, and EDX. The synthesized silver and gold nanoparticles had a momentous anticancer effect against lung carcinoma cell line A549 in a dose-dependent manner with IC50 values of 27.97 µg/mL and 36.39 µg/mL, respectively. The antimicrobial studies of synthesized nanoparticles were carried out by agar well diffusion method against six microbial strains. Silver and gold nanoparticles were also showed high antioxidant potentials with IC50 values of 42.37 µg/mL and 27.21 µg/mL, respectively; it was measured using DPPH assay. Additionally, the nanoparticles were observed to be good catalysts for the reduction of organic dyes.

Nanoparticles synthesis by bacteria and yeasts has been widely reported, however, synthesis using halophilic archaea is still in a nascent stage. This study aimed at the intracellular synthesis of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) by the haloarchaeon Halococcus salifodinae BK18 when grown in the presence of sodium selenite. Crystallographic characterization of SeNPs by X‐ray diffraction, Selected area electron diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy exhibited rod shaped nanoparticles with hexagonal crystal lattice, a crystallite domain size of 28 nm and an aspect ratio (length:diameter) of 13:1. Energy disruptive analysis of X‐ray analysis confirmed the presence of selenium in the nano‐preparation. The nitrate reductase enzyme assay and the inhibitor studies indicated the involvement of NADH‐dependent nitrate reductase in SeNPs synthesis and metal tolerance. The SeNPs exhibited good anti‐proliferative properties against HeLa cell lines while being non‐cytotoxic to normal cell line model HaCat, suggesting the use of these SeNPs as cancer chemotherapeutic agent. This is the first study on selenium nanoparticles synthesis by haloarchaea. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 30:1480–1487, 2014  相似文献

Copper oxide nanoparticles (CUNPs) were synthesized using Olea europaea leaf extract as reducing and protecting agent. The formation of nanoparticles was observed through a color change from yellowish to brownish black. The CUNPs were confirmed with UV–Vis spectrophotometer, which revealed a peak absorbance at 289 nm. The synthesized CUNPs were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, and TEM. The XRD pattern revealed that CUNPs were crystalline in nature with a diameter around 20 nm. FTIR spectral analysis showed that CUNPs were capped with plant constituents. From SEM and TEM analyses, the CUNPs were generally found to be spherical in shape, and the size range was 20–50 nm. Free radical scavenging potential of CUNPs against DPPH was confirmed by its stable antioxidant effects. In addition, the toxicity of CUNPs in mice was also assessed by body weight and weights of liver, kidneys, spleen, and thymus. The immune response in mice was signaled through an obvious change in spleen and thymus index, with a decrease of ADA enzyme activity in serum, spleen, and thymus after CUNPs treatment. The CUNPs were found to exert cell growth arrest against AMJ‐13 and SKOV‐3 cancer cells in a dose‐dependent manner and induce cell death by apoptosis. Less significant cytotoxic effect was observed in normal dermal fibroblast cells. These findings suggest that CUNPs may have the potential to be anticancer agents. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 34:218–230, 2018  相似文献

N-benzhydrylpiperazine and 1,3,4-oxadiazoles are pharmacologically active scaffolds which exhibits significant inhibitory growth effects against various cancer cells, however, antiproliferation effects and the underlying mechanism for inducing apoptosis for aforementioned scaffolds addressing HeLa cancer cells remains uncertain. In this study, N-benzhydrylpiperazine clubbed with 1,3,4-oxadiazoles ( 4a–4h ) were synthesized, subsequently characterized using high resolution spectroscopic techniques and eventually evaluated for their antiproliferation potential by inducing apoptosis in HeLa cancer cells. The MTT assay screening results revealed that among all, compound 4d ( N-benzhydryl-4-((5-(4-aminophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)methyl)piperazine) in particular, exhibited IC 50 value of 28.13 ± 0.21 μg/mL and significantly inhibited the proliferation of HeLa cancer cells in concentration-dependent manner. The in vitro anticancer assays for treated HeLa cells resulted in alterations in the cell morphology, reduction in colony formation, and inhibition of cell migration in concentration-dependent treatment. Furthermore, G2/M phase arrest, variations in the nuclear morphology, degradation of chromosomal DNA confirmed the ongoing apoptosis in treated HeLa cells. Increase in the expression of cytochrome C and caspase-3 confirmed the involvement of intrinsic mitochondrial pathway regulating the cell death. Also, elevation in reactive oxygen species level and loss of mitochondrial membrane potential signified that compound 4d induced apoptosis in HeLa cells by generating the oxidative stress. Therefore, compound 4d may act as a potent chemotherapeutic agent against human cervical cancer.  相似文献

Transition metal complexes compounds with Schiff bases ligand representing an important class of compounds that could be used to develop new metal-based anticancer agents and as precursors of metal NPs. Herein, 2,3-bis-[(3-ethoxy-2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino]but-2-enedinitrile Schiff base ligand and its corresponding copper/nickel complexes were synthesized. Also, we reported a facile and rapid method for synthesis nickel/copper nanoparticles based on thermal reduction of their complexes. Free ligand, its metal complexes and metals nanoparticles have been characterized based on elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, magnetic measurements and by various spectroscopic (UV–vis, FT-IR, 1H NMR, GC–MS) techniques. Additionally, the in vitro cytotoxic activity of free ligand and its complexes compounds were assessed against two cancer cell lines (HeLa and MCF-7 cells)and one healthy cell line (HEK293 cell). The copper complex was found to be active against these cancer cell lines at very low LD50 than the free ligand, while nickel complex did not show any anticancer activity against these cell lines. Also, the antibacterial activity of as-prepared copper nanoparticles were screened against Escherichia coli, which demonstrated minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values lower than those values of the commercial Cu NPs as well as the previous reported values. Moreover, the synthesized nickel nanoparticles demonstrated remarkable catalytic performance toward hydrogenation of nitrobenzene that producing clean aniline with high selectivity (98%). This reactivity could be attributed to the high degree of dispersion of Ni nanoparticles.  相似文献

Recent clinical and epidemiological researches have declared that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents may display as antineoplastic agents and indicate pro-apoptotic and antiproliferative effects on cancer cells. The major purpose of this research was to develop a novel poly(ethyleneglycol)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PEG-b-PCL) nano-sized particles encapsulated with nimesulide (NMS), a selective COX-2 inhibitor, and to evaluate its anticancer activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. NMS-encapsulated PEG-b-PCL nanoparticles were fabricated using three different production techniques: (i) by emulsion-solvent evaporation using a high shear homogenizer, (ii) by emulsion-solvent evaporation using an ultrasonicator, and (iii) by nanoprecipitation. Nanoparticles were evaluated with respect to the entrapment efficiency, size characteristics, drug release rates, thermal behavior, cell viability assays, and apoptosis. The resulting nanoparticles were found to be spherical shapes with negative surface charges. The average diameter of all nanoparticles ranged between 148.5 and 307.2 nm. In vitro release profiles showed that all nanoparticles exhibited a biphasic release pattern. NMS-loaded PEG-b-PCL nanoparticles demonstrated significant anticancer activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner, and the effects of nanoparticles on cell proliferation were significantly affected by the preparation techniques. The nanoparticles developed in this work displayed higher potential for the NMS delivery against breast cancer treatment for the future.  相似文献

Plants have natural products which use to possess antiproliferative potential against many cancers. In the present study, six isolated fractions (ethyl acetate, petroleum ether, chloroform, n-butanol, ethanol and aqueous) from Solanum nigrum were evaluated for their cytotoxic effect on different cell lines. Hepatic carcinoma cell line (HepG2), cervical cancer cell line (HeLa) and baby hamster kidney (BHK) used as normal non-cancerous cells were evaluated for cytotoxicity against isolated fractions. Cell viability assay was performed to evaluate the cytotoxicity of all fractions on different cell lines followed by the lactate dehydrogenase and vascular endothelial growth factor assays of most active fraction among all screened for cytotoxic analysis. HPLC analysis of most active fractions against cytotoxicity was performed to check the biological activity of compounds. Results displayed the potent cytotoxic activity of ethyl acetate fraction of S. nigrum against HepG2 cells with IC50 value of 7.89 μg/ml. Other fractions exhibited potent anticancer activity against HepG2 cells followed by HeLa cells. Fractions in our study showed no cytotoxicity in BHK cells. Cytotoxic activity observed in our current study exposed high antiproliferative potential and activity of ethyl acetate fraction against HepG2 cells. The results demonstrated that S. nigrum fractions exhibited anticancer activity against hepatic and cervical cancer cell lines with non-toxic effect in normal cells. These results reveal significant potential of S. nigrum for the therapeutic of cancers across the globe in future.  相似文献

Synthesis of new anticancer candidates with protein kinases inhibitory potency is a major goal of pharmaceutical science and synthetic research. This current work represents the synthesis of a series of substituted benzoate-thiazolidinones. Most prepared thiazolidinones were evaluated in vitro for their potential anticancer activity against three cell lines by MTT assay, and they found to be more effective against cancer cell lines with no harm toward normal cells. Thiazolidinones 5 c and 5 h were further evaluated to be kinase inhibitors against EGFR showing effective inhibitory impact (with IC50 value; 0.2±0.009 and 0.098±0.004 μM, for 5 c and 5 h , respectively). Furthermore, 5 c and 5 h have effects on cell cycle and apoptosis induction capability in HepG2 cell lines by DNA-flow cytometry analysis and annexin V-FITC apoptosis assay, respectively. The results showed that they have effect of disrupting the cell cycle and causing cell mortality by apoptosis in the treated cells. Moreover, molecular docking studies showed better binding patterns for 5 c and 5 h with the active site of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) protein kinase (PDB code 1M17). Finally, toxicity risk and physicochemical characterization by Osiris method was performed on most of the compounds, revealing excellent properties as possible drugs.  相似文献
