Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Inflammatory Properties of Crude Extracts and Anti-Cancer Properties of Acetone Extract of Moringa Oleifera Lam. Flowers on Cell Line ModelsSandisiwe Maposa, Gloria Aderonke Otunola, Anthony Jide AfolayanIn recent times, Moringa oleifera has earned great interest for its various physiological and therapeutic benefits. Acetone, ethanol, methanol, and aqueous extracts of Moringa oleifera flowers were investigated for anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer potential. Anti-inflammatory capacity was evaluated using the inhibition of nitric oxide production (LPS-induced) on RAW 264.7, and cell viability was appraised with the MTT assay. The potential of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2026 · 1,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytotoxicity and Apoptosis Prevailed by Tricyclohexyltin(IV) Dithiocarbamate Compounds Against Human Lung Carcinoma Cell Line (A549)Normah Awang, Nurul Amalina Abd Aziz, Nur Fatini Nordin, Nurul Farahana KamaludinIn Malaysia, lung cancer is a highly common kind of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. This study examined the cytotoxicity of two new tricyclohexyltin(IV) dithiocarbamate compounds compounds, which are tricyclohexyltin(IV) N-methyl-N-benzyldithiocarbamate (C1) and tricyclohexyltin(IV) N-ethyl-N-benzyldithiocarbamate (C2), on lung carcinoma cell lines (A549) of humans. The cytotoxicity was assessed using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Cell death mode … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 13 Jun 2024 · 4,622 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Novel Triphenyltin (IV) Dithiocarbamate Compounds in Assessing the Cytotoxicity and Mode of Cell Death of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cell Lines, CCRF CEM (CCL-119)Normah Awang, Nur Hidayah Hasrin, Nurul Farahana Kamaludin et al.Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are often used to treat Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). However, the resistance problem of treatment using the current drug in ALL patients has decreased the effectiveness of such therapy. Therefore, a study needs to be conducted to identify the potential of new anticancer agents. Organotin (IV) dithiocarbamate, an organometallic compound, causes toxic effects on cancer cells in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 2 · 10 Mar 2023 · 5,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Toxic Effects of Chitosan-Coated Magnetite Nanoparticles on Drosophila melanogasterDoris Vela, Jonathan Rondal, Sofía Cárdenas et al.Nanoparticles are a cause for concern because of their potential toxic effects on human health and the environment. The aim of this study was to assess the toxic effect of chitosan-coated magnetite nanoparticles (11.00±4.7 nm) on Drosophila melanogaster through the observation of hemolymph composition, DNA damage, larval survival and lifespan of flies. Chitosan-coated magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation method. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 25 Sep 2020 · 7,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioactive Compounds from Sponge Associated Bacteria: Anticancer Activity and NRPS-PKS Gene Expression in Different Carbon SourcesJepri Agung Priyanto, Rika Indri Astuti, Jun Nomura, Aris Tri WahyudiSponge associated bacteria with diverse NRPS-PKS genes could be the alternative source of bioactive compounds. This study aimed to analyze the activity as well as the regulatory mechanism regarding the anticancer properties derived from these bacteria against cancer cell lines. Extraction of bacterial metabolites using ethyl acetate solvent resulted yield ranging from 0.003 to 0.016% (w/v). Six extracts of bacterial … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 8,886 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCYTOTOXICITY AND MODE OF CELL DEATH INDUCED BY TRIPHENYLTIN (IV) COMPOUNDS IN VITRONormah Awang, Zalila Abdul Aziz, Nurul Farahana Kamaludin, Kok Meng ChanA series of newly synthesized organotin (IV) with N-alkyl-N-phenyldithiocarbamate ligands namely triphenyltin (IV) ethylphenyldithiocarbamate (compound 1) and triphenyltin (IV) butylphenyldithiocarbamate (compound 2) were assessed for their cytotoxic effect against HT-29 human colon adenocarcinoma cells and human CCD-18Co normal colon cells.
