One of the traditionally used herbs is the byproduct of the maize plant, the 10-20 cm long corn silk which from the female maize flowers. The aim of this study is to evaluate the total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and cytotoxicity activity of corn silk. The corn silk was minced and was extracted with methanol-water (80 % v/v), methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate, and hexane by using the maceration method. The total phenolic content (TPC) of corn silk was determined to assess the presence and level of phenolic compounds in each sample. The antioxidant activities of all corn silk extracts were determined via DPPH method, and MTT assay was used to study the viability of the cells after the cells were treated with corn silk extracts at different time intervals. The highest phenolic content was exhibited by the methanol extract. The EC50 value for methanol-water (80 % v/v), methanol, ethanol, ethyl acetate and hexane extracts were 251 μg/ ml, 300 μg/ ml, 330 μg/ ml, 550 μg/ ml and 1736 μg/ ml respectively. The MTT assay, the lowest IC50 values at 24 and 48 hours intervals, was exhibited by methanol-water extract (104 μg/ ml). In contrast, methanol (308 μg/ ml) was found with the highest IC50 value for all 24, 48, and 72 hours intervals. At 72 hours interval, ethyl acetate (88 μg/ ml) shown the lowest IC50 value. This study suggested that corn silk could be potentially used as a source of antioxidant and can further evaluate for cancer studies.

Objective: According to the principles of drug design, the structures of picotamide and betrixaban were combined to design novel series of 2-methoxy-5-aminobenzamides. A total of twenty new compounds 1a-1t have been synthesized and evaluated for their antiplatelet aggregation activities in vitro. Methods: In the structural design of target compounds 1a-1t, the betrixaban was retained group characteristics and the picotamide was retained its 1, 3, 4-substitution position. With 2-methoxybenzoic acid as starting material, compounds 1a-1t were synthesized after 5 steps of nitration, acylation, ammoniation, reduction and secondary ammoniation. And their antiplatelet aggregation activities in vitro were assessed by the Born test with ADP, arachidonic acid and collagen as inducing agents, respectively, and with aspirin and picotamide as two reference drugs. Results: The compound 1f (46.14%±0.07) had the highest activity for ADP and its IC50 value was 0.17 µM, far better than the two control drugs aspirin (0.44 µM) and picotamide (0.47 µM). The IC50 value of four compounds 1i (0.24 µM), 1j (0.22 µM), 1r (0.25 µM) and 1t (0.24 µM), displayed higher antiplatelet activities in vitro for AA than aspirin (0.43 µM) and picotamide (0.34 µM). Evaluation of cytotoxicity activity of the compounds against L929 cells line revealed that at lower concentration of 10 µmol·L-1, compound 1p had lower effect on L929 cells, and its cell survival rate (88.24%±4.16) was higher than that (82.35%±4.16) of picotamide. Conclusion: Novel series of 2-methoxy-5-aminobenzamides has shown higher in vitro antiplatelet activities and lower effect on L929 cells at lower concentration.

Anticancer activity of secang’s heartwood (Caesalpinia sappan L.) is based on its main compound: brazilin and brazilein. Brazilin, brazilein, and other compounds such as caesalpiniaphenol can affect proteins that have a role in apoptosis. In this study, we observed cytotoxic activity of fraction containing brazilein (FCB) alone or in combination with chemotherapeutic agent, cisplatin and the ability of the combination to induce apoptosis in T47D breast cancer cell lines. Cytotoxicity assay was determined using MTT assay, whereas the detection apoptosis induction was conducted using flow cytometry using Annexin-V and propidium iodide. FCB and cisplatin showed cytotoxic effect on T47D cells with IC50 value of 68 µg/mL and 16 µM, respectively. Combination of FCB and cisplatin result synergistic combination at the concentration ratio of 1/2 IC50 with CI value of 0.66. Its combination also able to induce apoptosis on T47D cell population 13% larger than the single treatment. Based on this study, we conclude that FCB is able to enhance the cytotoxic effects of cisplatin by inducing apoptosis.Keywords:  Caesalpinia sappan L., cisplatin, apoptosis, breast cancer

Abstract The new compound Rb2SnO2 was obtained as a light yellow powder by heating mixtures of the binary oxides (RbO0.48 + SnO, Rb: Sn = 2:1) under argon (sealed Ag cylinders, 600 °C, 3d). Subsequent annealing (550 °C, 8d and 500 °C, 17 d) led to light yellow transparent single crystals. Rb2SnO2 is extremely sensitive to moisture and decomposes into black products. It crystallizes orthorhombicly in the space group P212121-D42, with a = 5.761, b = 7.493, c= 11.167 Å, Z = 4, drö = 4.43 and dpyk = 4.46 gcm-3 , R= 11.8 and Rw = 12.0%. Effective Coordination Numbers, ECoN, these via Mean Fictive Ionic Radii, MEFIR, and the Madelung Part of Lattice Energy, MAPLE, have been calculated. Isotypic K2SnO2 was obtained similarly as a brown powder, a = 5.579, b = 7.246, c = 16.744 Å.

Indonesia has a variety of plants that have the potential for medicine. One of the plants used by the community as a drug with anticancer effects is Dendrophtoe petandra (L.) Miq. This study aims to determine the cytotoxic effect of ethanol extract, ethyl acetate fraction and water ethanol fraction of Dendrophtoe petandra (L.) Miq on T47D breast cancer cells. The cytotoxic effects of ethanol extract, ethyl acetate fraction and water ethanol fraction were carried out by MTT assay method using series concentration. Cytotoxic effects were assessed by calculating IC50 values using linear equations. Phytochemical test showed that Dendrophtoe petandra (L.) Miq contained saponins, terpenoids, flavonoids and tannins. The IC50 value of the ethanol extract, ethyl acetate fraction and water ethanol fraction were 417.506 μg/mL, 233.617 μg/mL, and 2748.357 μg/mL, respectively. The smaller the IC50 value means that the compound is more active. Water ethanol fraction of Dendrophtoe petandra (L.) Miq does not have a cytotoxic effect, whereas ethanol extract and ethyl acetate fraction of Dendrophtoe petandra (L.) Miq have cytotoxic effects in the medium strength category. The content of flavonoids and saponins in ethanol extract and ethyl acetate fraction of Dendrophtoe petandra (L.) Miq is thought to play role in causing T47D cell death. Cytotoxic effects of ethyl acetate fraction are stronger than ethanol extracts.

In this study, a total of twenty chalcones were synthesized via Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction and evaluated for their in vitro acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities using Ellman’s method. Molecular docking studies on acetylcholinesterase were performed to elucidate the interactions between these chalcone derivatives and acetylcholinesterase active site at the molecular level. From the series, six compounds (S1-5 and S17) exhibited strong acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities with IC50 values below 100 µM compared to the parent unsubstituted chalcone. Compound S17 (4’-amino-2-chlorochalcone) showed the strongest acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity in the investigated group with IC50 value of 36.10 µM. Molecular modeling studies were consistent with the results of in vitro acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities, and chalcone S17 could be considered as a potential lead compound for the development of new acetylcholinesterase inhibitors.
