Microalgae are considered as an ample source of bioactive compounds. These wide variety of chemicals possess promising potential to translate into drug candidates. Hence, the aim of this study is to determine potential anti-cancer effects of Spirulina platensis microalgae extract against endometrial cancer cells. The selective cytotoxic effect and cytotoxicity index of S. platensis microalgae extract on the Ishikawa endometrial cancer cell line, the determination of DNA fragmentation and the change in gene expression levels of apoptosis-related Bad, Poly-ADP Ribose Polymerase-1 (PARP1), p53, Akt1 and caspase-3 signaling proteins were determined. ECV304 human umbilical vein endothelial cell line was used for a control cell line. Cytotoxic effects of 500 μg mL-1 of S. platensis microalgae extract on Ishikawa and ECV304 cells were determined as 43±4.87 % and 22±1.87 % respectively. In order to delineate specific compounds in the extract, GC-MS analysis was further conducted and seven major compounds revealed to be abundantly present. Since DNA fragmentation induced by S. platensis extract might be related interaction of GC-MS identified compounds with PARP1, an in silico analysis was further implemented. Results indicated the presence of a possible PARP1 inhibitory mechanism contributing to the apoptotic response. In conclusion, a possible link between a specific compound found in S. platensis microalgae extract and the cytotoxicity in endometrial cells was formed through combining in vitro and in silico approaches. The result of these approaches has contributed to the identification of potential anti-cancer compound candidates found in S. platensis microalgae extract.
