Abstract

Breast cancer is the main cause of cancer death among women, especially breast cancer metastasis. Metastasis process begins with the ability of cell cancer invasion. Doxorubicin, a antracycline chemotheraphy, is known to induce TGFβ1, thus promote invasion. The aim of this study is to optimize doxorubicin doses to induce lamellipodia formation in 4T1 and MCF-7/HER2 cells. Lamellipodia formation was observed by morphological changes using microscope inverted. The effect of doxorubicin on cell viability was analyzed using MTT assay. Rac1 expression after doxorubicin exposure was determined by western blotting. Lamellipodia formation was observed by morphological change of the cell at the dose 10, 25, 50 and 100 nM. Doxorubicin at the dose of 10 nM could induced lamellipodia formation without affect cell viability in both 4T1 and MCF-7/HER2 cells.  Doxorubicin induced cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase at all doses. Doxorubicin 10 nM also decrease Rac1 expression compared to control.Key words: Doxorubicin, lamellipodia, Rac1, migration.

Abstract

Hyptis pectinata (L.) poit, popularly known in the world as “comb bushmint” is a medicinal plant commonly used for the treatment of throat and skin inflammations, bacterial infection, pain and cancer. The objective of this research is to determine the cytotoxic and antiproliferative effect under Hyptis pectinata ethanolic extract (HPE) treatment on breast cancer cells. The effect HPE of on cytotoxicity was examined by MTT assay on MCF-7 breast cancer cells. This assay also used to determine cell proliferation over 3 days of treatment with 1.5 – 100 µg/mL HPE. HPE showed that exhibited cytotoxic effects with IC50 value of 30 µg/mL for 24 hours and changes the physiological morphology on MCF-7 cells. Interestingly, the treatment of HPE for 48 and 72 hours highly decreases cell viability on MCF-7 with dose and time-dependent manner compared to untreated cells. These results indicate that HPE has antiproliferative activities and maybe the potential to be developed as a natural chemotherapeutic agent.Keywords: Hyptis pectinata (L.) poit extract, cytotoxicity, antiproliferative, MCF-7 cells
