Abstract

Chemotherapeutic agents for breast cancer such as doxorubicin can attack normal cells as the side effects. Chromolaena odorata L. and its chemical content, sinensetin, have potential anticancer  and  antioxidant  properties.  The  objective  of  this  research  is  to  examine  the anticancer properties of C. odorata leaves extract and sinensetin on 4T1 triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells combined with doxorubicin. The MTT (3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2, 5 diphenyltetrazolium  bromide)  assay  on  4T1  cells  was  used  to  determine  the  IC50 and the Combination  Index  (CI)  of  the  two  agents  in  combination.  Washing  out the  treatment  and determining  the  cells  viability  after  a  few  days  was done  to evaluate  the  persistence  of the  effects  to  cancer  cells.  Chromolaena odorata  extract  (COE)  obtained  was  proven  to contain  sinensetin  which  gave  a positive  signal  on  the  chromatogram.  COE  and  sinensetin were  moderately  cytotoxic  to  4T1  cells  with  IC50  value  of  53  μg/mL  and  58  μM  (21.6 μg/mL), respectively. Both compounds were synergist (CI<0.7) to strong synergist (CI<0.3) when combined with doxorubicin (IC50 90 nM = 0.05 μg/mL). COE and sinensetin exhibited moderate and not cytotoxic against Vero cells with IC50 values of 60 μg/mL and 243 μM (90.43 μg/mL), respectively. Both COE and sinensetin showed selectivity index values of >1 (1.13 and 4.19, respectively).  Moreover,  the  cytotoxic  effects  of  COE  on  4T1  cells  was  persisted  until  48  h after  removing  COE  from  the  medium,  indicating  the  tumor-suppression  potency  of  COE. Our findings strengthen the scientific basis of C. odorata leaves extract to be developed as a co-chemotherapeutics agent for doxorubicin on TNBC.Keywords: Chromolaena odorata L., breast cancer cells, doxorubicin, co-chemotherapy, kidney cells.

Abstract

Citrus flavonoids have been known for their vast biological activities including chemoprevention activities. However, the organic solvent extraction system limits its potential utilization. We recently adopted a hydrodynamic-cavitation method to extract citrus flavonoids from citrus peels. In this study we verified the high flavonoid content of the hydrodynamic-cavitation extract from Citrus reticulata peels and explore the potency of its citrus flavonoid contents as targeted chemoprevention agent for breast cancer by using bioinformatics. Based on a thin layer chromatography, the extract positively yielded high content of citrus flavonoids represented by hesperidin. The toxicity analysis by Protox II Online Tool revealed that hesperidin as the major citrus flavonoid in the extract was considered safe with a predicted LD50 of 12,000 mg/kg. We then further exploring citrus flavonoids’ capacity in targeting MAP1LC3A, a key protein in autophagy. UALCAN analysis validated that low expression of MAP1LC3A is associated with low survival rates in breast cancer patients. Limonin, hesperidin, narirutin, neohesperidine, and naringin are flavonoids from citrus peels that predicted to have inhibitory activity against Protein Kinase A (PKA), a negative upstream of MAP1LC3A, calculated by KNIME. Citrus flavonoids scoparone, cirsimaritin, 4',5,7-trimethoxyflavone, eupatorine, and hesperidin were also exhibit similar structure to an agonist of ATG4B, a protein that plays a role in MAP1LC3A activation. Furthermore, eupatorine, hesperidin, and cirsimaritin displayed a high affinity to ATG4B based on a molecular docking. We concluded that citrus flavonoids from citrus peels are safe to normal cells, and the citrus flavonoids potentially targets MAP1LC3A by inhibiting PKA and acting as ATG4B agonists. Thus, this extract-contained flavonoids from citrus peels is potential to be investigated further as a chemoprevention agent by inducing autophagy, especially for breast cancer.Keywords: Citrus reticulata, citrus flavonoid, autophagy, MAP1LC3A, breast cancer.

Abstract

Doxorubicin has been incorporated in cancer therapy regimes for wide-range malignancies, but it causes many side effects. These adverse effects can be overcome by combining doxorubicin with other ingredients that possess anticancer potential but are safe on normal cells. The tubers of Merremia mammosa, locally known as “Bidara Upas” in Indonesia, have been proven to have anticancer potential with resin glycosides as the active compounds. This research aims to develop the extract of M. mammosa’s tubers (MTE) as a co-chemotherapy agent for doxorubicin. A malignant cancer cell line, 4T1, was used as the model. MTE was obtained by maceration in 96% ethanol. The thin layer chromatography confirmed that MTE contains glycoside compounds. Administration of MTE to 4T1 cells showed cytotoxic activity with an IC50 value of 61 μg/mL as evaluated by MTT assay. The combination of MTE and doxorubicin exhibited synergistic cytotoxic effects with a combination index of <0.7. Moreover, MTE at around IC50 was able to cause DNA fragmentation indicating apoptosis as observed by the agarose gel electrophoresis.These data support our hypothesis that MTE may serve as a potential co-chemotherapeutic agent for doxorubicin; however, the apoptosis-inducing potency of the combination requires further investigation.Keywords: 4T1 cell, apoptosis, Bidara Upas, co-chemotherapy.
