Background: Cancer is a serious disease severely endangering human health and life in the world in the world, and conventional anticancer drugs have frequently suffered from severe side effects and resistance. Therefore, developing novel and effective therapeutic strategies is urgently needed. As a Chinese herbal medicine with important medical values, Hedyotis chrysotricha has been suggested to be useful for the treatment of many diseases, especially cancer. background: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world, and conventional anticancer drugs have frequently suffered from severe side effects and resistance. Therefore, developing novel and effective therapeutic strategies is urgently needed. As a Chinese herbal medicine with important medical values, Hedyotis chrysotricha was suggested to be useful for the treatment of many diseases, especially cancer. Objective: Our aim was to investigate the antioxidant and antitumor activities of the phytochemical extracts of H. chrysotricha. objective: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant activity and antitumor properties of the phytochemical extracts of Hedyotis chrysotricha. Methods: 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl free radical scavenging assay was applied to determine antioxidant property. 3-(4,5)-dimethylthiahiazo(-z-y1)-3,5-di-phenytetrazoliumromide assay, wound healing assay, transwell matrix assay, flow cytometry and cell morphology were established to observe anti-proliferative, anti-migration, anti-invasion and apoptosis induction effects. The intracellular reactive oxygen species generation was detected by reactive oxygen species detection assay. method: In this study, 2,2 diphenyl 1 picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging assay was used to determine antioxidant activity. MTT, wound healing assay, transwell matrix assay, flow cytometry and cell morphology were established to observe anti-proliferative, anti-migration, anti-invasion and apoptosis induction effects. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was measured using ROS detection assay. Results: The ethyl acetate fraction showed promising antioxidant activity with IC50 of 98.67±0.49 μg/ml, and petroleum ether fraction exhibited the most potent antiproliferative effect on various human cancer cell lines, especially MDA-MB-231 (IC50 = 8.90±1.23 μg/ml) and HCT-116 (IC50 = 9.69±3.69 μg/ml) cancer cells. Further investigation revealed that the petroleum ether fraction suppressed the proliferation, migration and invasion of the cancer cells significantly. Additionally, it promoted cell apoptosis by increasing reactive oxygen species levels. result: It was demonstrated that the ethyl acetate fraction had promising antioxidant activity with IC50 of 98.67±0.49 μg/ml, whereas petroleum ether fraction exhibited the most potent anti-proliferative activity against various human cancer cell lines, especially MDA-MB-231 (IC50 = 8.90±1.23 μg/ml) and HCT-116 (IC50 = 9.69±3.69 μg/ml) cancer cells. Further investigation revealed that the petroleum ether fraction inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of the cancer cells significantly. Additionally, it promoted cell apoptosis by increasing ROS levels. Conclusion: H. chrysotricha extract possessed excellent antioxidant and antitumor activities. Therefore, it could be useful as a source of antioxidants and compounds for cancer therapy. conclusion: Hedyotis chrysotricha extract possessed excellent antioxidant and antitumor activities. Therefore, it could be useful as a source of antioxidants and compounds for cancer therapy. other: none
