“…For example, a recent study by Karthik kumar et al, showed that RA supplementation reduced cell proliferation markers in 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced rat colon carcinogenesis [30] and other studies in the last five years have described cytotoxic and anti-proliferative roles for RA in a number of other cancer cell types [19,[31][32][33]. In this study, initial experiments examined whether treatment with RA at concentrations ranging from 10-80 µg/ml, could reduce HNSCC cell numbers at 24 hrs.…”

Objective: Active components of natural foods are increasingly receiving attention for their chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic potential in a wide variety of cancers. Rosmarinic acid (RA), a phenolic compound in various herbal plants, is well-recognized for its anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative properties in a variety of cell types. In this report, we describe a novel role for RA as an inhibitor of epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulated signaling in HNSCC and propose a cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated mechanism for the observed effects.Methods: Cellular growth, migration and reactive oxygen species (ROS) profiles were examined in RA-treated and untreated HNSCC cell lines (UM-SCC-6 and UM-SCC-10B) using the WST-1 viability assay, established in vitro migration assays, and the CM-H2DCFDA ROS assay, respectively. The influence of RA on EGF-stimulated phosphorylation and its downstream pathways was evaluated using Western-blotting techniques.Results: RA inhibited cell viability, migration and cellular production of ROS in HNSCC cell lines. Furthermore, RA inhibited EGF-induced phosphorylation of the EGFR at tyrosine residues 992 and 845, which led to downregulation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase Akt (PI3K/Akt) and mitogen-activated protein kinase ERK (MAPK/ ERK) pathways.Conclusions: This is the first report describing both growth-and motility-inhibitory roles for RA in HNSCC cells. Additionally, our study is the first to demonstrate that treatment with RA can reduce EGF-induced activation of PI3K/ Akt in tumor cells. The present data suggests that RA holds promise as a chemotherapeutic agent against HNSCC. a novel strategy to down-regulate EGFR signaling using the phenolic compound, rosmarinic acid. RosmarinicActive components of natural foods are increasingly receiving attention for their chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic potential in a wide variety of cancers. One such food component, rosmarinic acid (RA), is a widely distributed phenolic compound in various herbal plants such as rosemary, sweet basil, sage, mint, and perilla (Figure 1) [10,11]. RA is regarded as a daily-consumed safe ingredient, due to its extensive use in the food industry for flavoring, but studies have also elucidated a medicinal role for RA, especially in regard to its anti-oxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities [12,13]. Furthermore, an emerging body of literature has also described the growth inhibitory and anti-invasion properties of RA in colon, skin, breast and ovarian cancers in vitro and/or in vivo [14][15][16][17][18][19], but the mechanisms underlying these effects are poorly understood. A chemopreventive role for RA in HNSCC has been described in 7,12-dimethylbenz (a) anthracene-induced hamster buccal pouch carcinogenesis [20], but a chemotherapeutic role for RA in the treatment of HNSCC has not yet been reported.Given the anti-oxidant properties attributed to RA, it is possible that RA's anti-tumor effects stem from its ability to combat oxidative stress in HNSCC.

Context:Lansium domesticum corr. is a member of the family Meliaceae, and known locally as duku and has been used traditionally in the prevention and treatment of various illness. Aim: To study the cytotoxic effect and morphological changes of human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells (HT-29) treated with different duku (Lansium domesticum corr.) extracts. Methods: The L.domesticum corr. fruit extracts were processed involving three different solvents; methanol, ethanol and ethyl acetate. HT-29 cell lines were treated with different concentrations of L. domesticum corr. (0-100 µg/ml) extracts for a total of 24, 48 and 72 hours. Cytotoxicity of cells line was determined by using MTT assay as per IC 50 values. Results: Methanol extract of L. domesticum corr. showed IC 50 value at 6.79 ± 0.00 µg/ml and 50.0 ± 0.00 µg/ml respective, while ethyl acetate extract of L. domesticum corr. reached IC 50 value at 86.00 ± 0.08 µg/ml, and 96.0 ± 0.12 µg/ml. There was no IC 50 value of ethanol extract from L.domesticum corr. Only methanol extract showed toxicity towards HT-29 cells line. Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first repeat the exploring the effect of duku (L. domesticum corr.) extract on HT-29 cells line.
