Abstract

Black rice is a food crop with black pigments, which helps reduce the risk of various diseases and improve health. One way to improve food quality and avoid food contaminants is by irradiating. This study evaluated the phytochemical profile, antioxidant activity, and anticancer activity of irradiated black rice bran extract (IBRBE) in vitro and in silico. Black rice was irradiated with a Gamma cell 220 type irradiator at a 7.5 kGy/hour dose rate. Extraction of irradiated black rice bran was carried out using the maceration method. Phenolic and flavonoid components were quantified using the Folin–Ciocalteau and AlCl3 methods, respectively. Phytochemical compounds were identified by liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC HRMS). The antioxidant activity of IBRBE was carried out against 2,2-diphenyl-1picrylhydazyl (DPPH). The cytotoxic activity of IBRBE against WiDr cells (colorectal cancer) and Vero (nonhuman cell lines) used the MT test method. Prediction of the inhibitory mechanism of compounds in the extract against target proteins EGFR and GPX7 was carried out in silico. Total phenolics and flavonoids were 2.57 ± 0.28 mg GAE/g and 19.12 ± 0.18 μg QE/ml, respectively. Twenty-four types of active compounds were obtained in IBRBE. The results of antioxidant activity obtained an IC50 value of 1198.45 ± 92.86 μg/ml. IC50 in WiDr cells and Vero cells were obtained at 36.08 ± 11.71 μg/ml and 570.58 ± 130.25 μg/ml, respectively. In silico results, the compound 4 Dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid has the highest binding affinity to the EGFR protein, with a value of -5.9. Meanwhile, the Monoolein compound has the highest binding affinity to the GPX7 protein, with a value of -5.4.

Abstract

Breast cancer remains one of the most prevalent malignancies worldwide. The use of combinations of natural products is increasingly recognized as a promising strategy for cancer treatment. Turmeric rhizome (Curcuma longa L.) and soursop leaves (Annona muricata L.) are two natural materials known for their anticancer potential. This study aimed to identify the phytochemical constituents of turmeric rhizome and soursop leaf extracts and to evaluate the anticancer activity of their combination against T47D breast cancer cells. Turmeric and soursop leaves were extracted with 96% ethanol using the maceration method. Raw material standardization was performed by measuring water content, ethanol-soluble content, and water-soluble content. The extract was standardized by thin-layer chromatography. T47D and Vero cell lines were used in this study. Compound identification was performed using Liquid Chromatography–Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (LC/Q-TOF-MS). The candidate combination ratio was determined using the simplex lattice design approach in Design Expert 13 software. Cytotoxicity and antiproliferative effects were assessed using the MTT assay, while antimetastatic potential was evaluated through the scratch assay. Apoptosis and cell cycle arrest were analyzed by flow cytometry. IC_50 data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, and post hoc testing was performed using Tukey’s multiple-comparison test. Antiproliferation and scratch assay data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA followed by the Bonferroni test. Apoptosis and cell cycle assay data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey post hoc test. Phytochemical profiling indicated the existence of fifteen chemicals in both turmeric rhizome and soursop leaf extracts. The candidate combination ratio of turmeric rhizome to soursop leaf extracts was 1:21, exhibiting cytotoxic activity with an IC50 value of 32.2 ± 2.5 ug/mL. The combined extract was associated with antiproliferative, anti-migratory, and pro-apoptotic responses and induced G2/M phase cell cycle arrest in T47D cells.
