Background: 1,3,4-thiadiazole is a lead molécule which is versatile for a wide variety of biological activities and in continuation of our interest in establishing some novel heterocyclic compounds for antitumor activity. Objective: The objective of the study was to synthesize series of 5-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-1,3,4- thiadiazol-2-amine derivative and evaluated for their possible in vitro and in vivo anticancer activity. Methods: The synthesis of 2-aminonaphthoxy-1,3,4-thiadiazole and 5-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-1,3,4- thiadiazol-2-amine as intermediates were carried out by cyclization method. A mixture of thiosemicarbazide and naphthoxyacetic acid/piperonylic acid and phosphoryl chloride were subjected to cyclization with phosphorous oxychloride to obtain compound 3. Further compounds 1 and 3 were reacted with different aromatic aldehydes in methanol to form compounds 2a-e and 4a-e. The compounds 2a-e and 4a-e were characterized for the melting points, IR, Proton NMR and Mass spectra. The compounds were further evaluated for their anticancer activity. The docking study was performed using Discovery studio 4.1 (Accelrys) software against DNA-binding domain of STAT3. The compounds were analyzed for the ligand-protein binding interaction(s) by molecular docking into the active site of STAT3β using the CDOCKER protocol of Discovery studio (v4.1). Results: The title compounds were screened for in vitro anticancer on human breastadenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7 and Vero). Compounds 4c, 4d and 2d against MCF 7 and 4d against Vero cell lines were found to be the most active dérivatives with IC50 values of 1.03, 2.81 and 3.45 µg/ml against MCF 7 and 31.81 µg/ml against Vero cell lines, respectively. Conclusion: From the in vivo anticancer studies, it was concluded that the synthesized compounds 4c and 4d displayed anticancer activity comparable to the standard drug, while the rest of the compounds demonstrated mild potency for anticancer studies.

ABSTRAK Kangkung darat (Ipomea reptans Poir) adalah salah satu tanaman di Indonesia yang secara empiris telah dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat sebagai obat untuk terapi Diabetes Melitus (DM).  Riset sebelumnya telah dilakukan untuk memperoleh data ilmiah dari pemanfaatan kangkung darat sebagai terapi DM, dan pengembangannya dalam bentuk sediaan Self Nano Emulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sitotoksisitas sediaan SNEDDS ekstrak daun kangkung terstandar dengan menggunakan metode MTT (Methyl-Thiazolyl-Tetrazolium). Pengujian MTT dilakukan dengan cara well plate diplotkan terlebih dahulu untuk sampel uji 70 sumuran (well), kontrol sel 6 sumuran, dan kontrol media 6 sumuran.  Terakhir tiap sumuran ditambahkan stopper SDS sebanyak 100µl. Plate dibungkus alumunium foil dan diinkubasi semalaman pada suhu ruang. Hari berikutnya dilakukan pembacaan absorbansi sampel, kontrol media, dan kontrol sel menggunakan ELISA reader. Uji sitotoksik SNEEDS kangkung pada sel vero diperoleh hasil bahwa SNEEDS kangkung tidak menyebabkan kematian pada sel uji. Pada pengujian sel dilakukan pemaparan sampel excipient dari SNEEDS kangkung sebagai pembanding, dengan hasil menyebabkan kematian <50% sel uji pada dua kadar tertinggi dari sampel excipient. Namun pada hasil uji SNEEDS kangkung diperoleh data bahwa toksisitas excipient pada kadar tersebut tidak mempengaruhi timbulnya toksisitas pada sampel SNEEDS kangkung. Sehingga berdasarkan uji in vitro, SNEEDS kangkung tidak toksik terhadap sel vero. Kata kunci: Ipomoea reptans, sitotoksisitas, SNEDDS  ABSTRACT Kangkong (Ipomea reptans Poir) is a type of Indonesian plant empirically utilized by many people to treat diabetes mellitus (DM). A study has been conducted to obtain scientific data from the use of kangkong for DM treatment as well as to develop kangkong in SNEDDS preparation. This current study aimed to examine the cytotoxicity of kangkong leaf standardized extract in SNEDDS preparation through the MTT (Methyl-Thiazolyl-Tetrazolium) method. MTT assay was performed by initially plotting well plates for test sample (70 wells), control cell (6 wells), and control medium (6 wells). As much as 100µl SDS stopper was added into each well, and then plates were wrapped in aluminum foil and incubated all night at ambient temperature. On the following day, the absorbance of test sample, control medium, and control cell was identified using ELISA reader. The cytotoxicity test of kangkong SNEDDS on Vero cell lines showed that kangkong SNEDDS did not cause cell death. The cell was tested through exposure of excipient sample from kangkong SNEDDS as a comparison, resulting in <50% cell death by the two highest concentrations of excipient sample. However, the test result of kangkong SNEDDS indicated that excipient toxicity at such concentrations did not affect kangkong SNEDDS. Therefore, based on in vitro test, kangkong SNEDDS is not toxic against Vero cell lines. Keywords: Ipomoea reptans, cytotoxicity, SNEDDS

<p><em>Indonesia has so many kinds of a parasite (mistletoe), one of them which has potential anticancer activity is mango parasite (Dendrophthoe pentandra). This research aimed at determining the cytotoxic activity profile of mango parasite leaves extracts from several locations in Indonesia against T47D and Vero cell lines. Mango parasite leaves obtained from 4 locations in Indonesia: Kediri, Pekalongan, Sumatra, and Kalimantan. Three samples was obtained from 3 different sub-districts in each locations. Cytotoxic activities of samples were performed by MTT assay method. The results of this study showed that there were differences between samples obtained from different locations, especially in cytotoxic activity and selectivity indexes of mango parasite leaves (D. pentandra) ethanol extract. D. pentandra obtained from Kalimantan has the most potential cytotoxic activity and could be potentially developed into a T47D breast anticancer agent. Extracts from the Kalimantan have an IC<sub>50</sub> values of287.39 μg/ml, LC<sub>50 </sub>798.28 μg / ml and selectivity index 2.77, which means it was toxic to cancer cells but safe for Vero cell lines, and its selectively kills cancer cells rather than Vero cell lines. The result of this study could support D. pentandra to be developed as a new potential Fitofarmaka.</em></p>
