Abstract

BACKGROUND: Previous research has demonstrated the effect of Elephantopus scaber Linn. leaf extract (ESLE) on various cancer cell lines. However, research on the effects of ESLE on oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), especially tongue cancer, is still lacking. Moreover, the apoptotic mechanisms induced by ESLE are not well understood and require further exploration. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the effects of ESLE on cell viability and apoptosis in human squamous cell carcinoma (HSC)-3 tongue cancer cells.METHODS: HSC-3 cells were treated with varying concentrations of ESLE, doxorubicin, and a combination of both. Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed using MTT and Sub-G1 assays. The expression levels of survivin and its phosphorylated form at threonine (Thr)34 were evaluated using Western blot analysis.RESULTS: ESLE exhibited a concentration-dependent cytotoxic effect on HSC-3 cells in decreasing cell viability (Kruskal Wallis, p=0.001) and increasing apoptotic cells (ANOVA, p=0.001) significantly. When combined with doxorubicin, ESLE further enhanced the induction of apoptosis compared with doxorubicin alone. The combined treatment resulted in a decrease in the levels of phosphorylated survivin (p-Surv) Thr34, indicating the inhibition of survivin's anti-apoptotic function.CONCLUSION: ESLE significantly enhances the efficacy of doxorubicin, thereby sensitizing its ability to induce apoptosis in HSC-3 tongue cancer cells. This sensitization occurs through the inhibition of survivin activity, particularly at the Thr34 phosphorylation site. These findings suggest that ESLE could serve as a potential adjuvant to improve the effectiveness of doxorubicin in inducing apoptosis in tongue cancer cells.KEYWORDS: Elephantopus scaber, doxorubicin, tongue cancer, HSC-3 cells, apoptosis, Survivin, Thr34 phosphorylation

Abstract

Background: Cancer, a degenerative disease, arises from free radicals in the body, which can be counteracted by antioxidants. Amaranthus hybridus L., a vegetable rich in antioxidant compounds like flavonoids, requires extraction to harness these compounds. This extraction uses the maceration technique with 70% ethanol. Antioxidant activity is tested using methods like DPPH and ABTS assays, with the IC50 value indicating effectiveness. Purpose: To determine the difference in antioxidant activity of A. hybridus L. leaves ethanol extract with DPPH and ABTS methods. Method: Laboratory experimental research. Simplicia leaves of A. hybridus L. in 70% ethanol solvent were extracted using maseration method. The antioxidant activity was tested in the sample and the ascorbic acid using DPPH and ABTS methods at wavelenghts 517 nm and 745 nm. Sample absorbance was measured using microplate reader. Result: IC50 values of A. hybridus L. leaves ethanol extract with DPPH and ABTS methods were 54,99 µg/mL and 71,45 µg/mL, for ascorbic acid using DPPH and ABTS methods were 0,62 µg/mL and 3.13 µg/mL. Conclusion: The antioxidant activity of A. hybridus L. leaves ethanol extract with DPPH method has stronger antioxidant than ABTS method.
