Abstract

Rhododendron
luteum, Rhododendron cinsine dahil bir bitki
olup, bu cinse ait bitkiler geleneksel tedavide sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Rhododendron türlerinin sitotoksik
etkilerini araştıran çok sayıda çalışma olmasına rağmen, R. luteum türünün sitotoksik etkilerini inceleyen çalışmalar
sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı R. luteum
yaprak ekstraktının antioksidan özelliklerini ve insan kanser hücreleri üzerindeki
sitotoksik etkisini araştırmaktır. Ekstraktın toplam fenolik içeriği (TPC),
toplam flavonoid içeriği (TFC) ve indirgeyici gücü spektrofotometrik
prosedürler kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Ekstraktın beş kanser (insan meme,
kolon, akciğer, prostat ve karaciğer karsinomu) ve insan fibroblast hücreleri
üzerindeki sitotoksik etkisi MTT analizi kullanılarak belirlendi. Ekstraktın
TPC ve indirgeyici güç değerleri g örnek başına sırasıyla 173.2±3.97 mg gallik
asit eşdeğeri ve 629.5±3.49 mg troloks eşdeğeri olarak bulundu. R. luteum yaprak ekstraktı normal
fibroblast hücrelerine kıyasla özellikle kolon (1.9 kat) ve karaciğer (2.2 kat)
kanser hücrelerine karşı seçici sitotoksisite sergiledi. Bu çalışma R. luteum yaprak ekstraktının
antiproliferatif etkisini ortaya koyan ilk çalışmadır. Ekstraktta bulunan
sitotoksik moleküllerin tanımlanması ve etki mekanizmalarının belirlenmesi için
daha kapsamlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Abstract

Rhododendron luteum belongs to the genus Rhododendron, members
of which are frequently used in folk medicine. Various studies have
investigated the cytotoxic effect of different Rhododendron species, but
there have been limited studies of the cytotoxic effect of R. luteum.
The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant properties and
cytotoxic effect of R. luteum leaf extract on the human cancer cells.
The total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and reducing
power of the extract were evaluated using spectrophotometric procedures. The
cytotoxic effect of the extract on five cancers (human breast, colon, lung,
prostate, and liver carcinoma) and human fibroblast cells was determined using
the MTT assay. TPC and reducing power values of extract were found 173.2±3.97
mg gallic acid equivalents, and 629.5±3.49 mg trolox equivalents per to g
sample, respectively. R. luteum leaf
extract exhibited selective cytotoxicity especially against colon (1.9 fold)
and liver (2.2 fold) cancer cells compared to normal fibroblast cells. This is
the first study to reveal the antiproliferative effect of R. luteum leaf extract. Further studies are now needed to identify
the cytotoxic molecules in the extract and their mechanisms.
