Anticancer Activity of Ethanolic Extract of Selaginella Plana Hieron. on T47d Cell Line in Vitro

Selaginella sp belongs to the Selaginellaceae family. It has been used in China and Indonesia as a traditional medicine. It hasseveral medicinal properties including antibacterial, anticardiovascular, and anticancer agent. The aim of the present study was to access the anticancer property of the ethanolic extracts of Selaginella plana Hieron. on T47D breast cancer cell line. The proliferation of T47D cell line was detected by SRB (Sulforhodamine B) assay which was measured at a wavelength of 515 nM. The result showed that the IC50 of the ethanolic extract was determined at 7.03 pg/mL. This significant activity was assumed due to its high total flavonoid content. The totalflavonoid content of the ethanolic extract was 23.04%. Flow cytometry analysis indicated that the extract may undergo the cell death via apoptosis pathway. In conclusion, the ethanolic extract of Selaginella plana Hieron: has considerable activity in inhibiting T47D cell line proliferation

Isolasi Siklokomunol Dari Daun Sukun Artocarpus Altilis (Parkinson) Fosberg Serta Aktivitasnya Sebagai Antikanker

Daun sukun (Artocarpus altilis) sudah lama dijadikan sebagai obat tradisional untuk mengatasi berbagai penyakit seperti liver cirrhosis, hipertensi, dan diabetes. Ekstrak etil asetat dari daun sukun juga berpotensi menghambat pertumbuhan sel kanker. Beberapa senyawa yang telah diketahui sebagai agen antikanker di dalam ekstrak etil asetat daun sukun adalah golongan geranil flavonoid. Akan tetapi, senyawa pyranoflavoid belum dilaporkan dapat ditemukan pada daun sukun. Untuk itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengisolasi senyawa pyranoflavonoid dari ekstrak etil asetat daun sukun dan menguji aktivitasnya sebagai antikanker. Daun sukun diekstraksi dengan etanol 70% kemudian dilakukan partisi dengan petroleum eter dan etil asetat. Ekstrak etil asetat yang diperoleh difraksinasi dengan kromatografi kolom silica gel dengan gradient elusi heksan-etil asetat sehingga diperoleh senyawa kristal berwarna kuning, AA3. Senyawa AA3 kemudian diidentifikasi dengan spektrofotometer UV-Vis, LC-MS, 1H-NMR dan 13C-NMR dan diperoleh hasil bahwa senyawa AA3 tersebut adalah siklokomunol yang merupakan golongan pyranoflavonoid. Uji antikanker siklokomunol dengan MCF-7 dan T47D menunjukkan adanya aktivitas antikanker dengan nilai IC50 masing-masing adalah 75.46 µM dan 36.20 µM selama 48 jam.Kata kunci:Artocarpus altilis, siklokomunol, antikanker, MCF-7, T47D. Leaves of breadfruit Artocarpus altilis (Parkinson) Fosberg has long been used as traditional medicine to overcome a variety of diseases such as liver cirrhosis, hypertension, and diabetes. Ethyl acetate extract of the leaves of breadfruit also potentially inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Several compounds have been known as an anticancer agent in the ethyl acetate extract of leaves of breadfruit is belong to geranyl flavonoid group. However, the compound belong to pyranoflavoid group has not been reported can be found on the leaves of breadfruit. Therefore, this study aims to isolate the pyranoflavonoid compound from ethyl acetate extract of leaves of breadfruit and tested as an anticancer agent. Breadfruit leaves were extracted with 70% ethanol and then made a partition with petroleum ether and ethyl acetate. Ethyl acetate extract obtained was fractionated by silica gel column chromatography with gradient elution of hexane-ethyl acetate to obtain a yellow crystalline compound, AA3. AA3 compound was identified by UV-Vis spectrophotometer, LC-MS, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR and obtained results that AA3 compound is siklokomunol which is belong to pyranoflavonoid group. Anticancer test of siklokomunol with MCF-7 and T47D showed anticancer activity with IC50 values of each are 75.46 µM and 36.20 µM, respectively, for 48 hours

Isolation and identification of Streptomyces sp. Act4Zk, a good producer of Staurosporine and some derivatives.

In this study, strain Streptomyces sp. Act4Zk was isolated based on a method developed for the isolation of myxobacteria. Due to the low efficiency of the majority of conventional DNA extraction techniques, for molecular identification of the strain Streptomyces sp. Act4Zk, a new technique for DNA extraction of Actinobacteria was developed. In order to explore potential bioactivities of the strain, extracts of the fermented broth culture were prepared by an organic solvent (i.e. ethyl acetate) extraction method using. These ethyl acetate extracts were subjected to HPLC fractionation against standard micro-organisms, followed by LC/MS analysis. Based on morphological, physiological, biochemical and 16S rRNA gene sequence data, strain Streptomyces sp. Act4Zk is likely to be a new species of Streptomyces, close to Streptomyces genecies and Streptomyces roseolilacinus. Antimicrobial assay indicated high antifungal activity as well as antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium smegmatis and Gram-positive bacteria for the new strain. HPLC and LC/MS analyses of the extracts led to the identification of three different compounds and confirmed our hypothesis that the interesting species of the genus Streptomyces being a good producer of staurosporine and some derivatives
