Abstract

Petai mistletoe (Dendrophthoe praelonga (Blume) Miq) is semi-parasitic plant. Parasite plant has been used traditionally in Indonesia to prevent or treat degenerative diseases, such as cancer. The purpose of this study was to indentify anticancer compound of petai mistletoe leaves extract and to examine its antioxidant activity (based on DPPH method) and cytotoxic activity on breast cancer (MCF-7) cell lines in vitro using Alamar blue method. This research aims to isolating, characterize, determine antioxidant activity and cytotoxic activity. Separation was conducting column chromathography and characterize was conducted using TLC, FT-IR, LC-MS and NMR-1D. From the result obtained, the isolated compound is flavonol quercetine (3,3,7,3’,4’ pethahydroxyflavone) which active antioxidant with IC50 value of 9.4 μg/mL and the value of cytotoxic activity with IC50 750.62 μg/mL

Abstract

Glucomannan is a polysaccharide of the hemicellulose type, composed of glucose and mannose chains. It has the ability to form solutions that expand and thicken. The bioactivity of carbohydrates is influenced by the length of their saccharide chains. Hydrolysis can alter the structural dimensions of polysaccharides, including molecular weight, type, number, and position of substituent groups, which in turn impacts their biological activity. Various methods can modify carbohydrate structures to enhance their value, with degradation being one such method. Enzymatic degradation is particularly advantageous due to its high specificity, efficiency, and minimal side effects. Numerous studies have identified glucomannan as having immunomodulatory effects on macrophage cells. When stimulated with lipopolysaccharides, macrophages release various cytokines and inflammatory mediators, such as TNF-α, iNOS, and NO. This study explored the potential anti-inflammatory effects of glucomannan (GM) and its enzymatically hydrolyzed form (Enz-GM) on RAW 264.7 cells. The research involved degrading glucomannan using the β-mannanase enzyme, followed by in vitro testing of the degradation product (Enz-GM) for anti-inflammatory activity. This was achieved using an ELISA kit to measure the expression of IL-6, TNF-α, and iNOS. The results showed that Enz-GM at pH 9 (Mw 1.24 kDa) significantly reduced the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and iNOS (p ≤ 0.05) compared to GM, while TNF-α expression did not show a significant difference between Enz-GM and GM.
