Aim: Toxicological evaluation is required to understand the safety of avocado (Persea Americana) oil for use as a food supplement. In this study, cytotoxic and genotoxic effects of avocado oil in MCF-7 cell line were evaluated.
Materials and Methods: In this study, the MCF-7 was exposed to avocado oil (1, 10, 25 and 100 ppm) for 24, 48 and 72 hrs to assess the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects.
Results: IC50 of avocado oil were found to be 68.1, 62.8 and 64.3 ppm for 24, 48 and 72 hrs, respectively. There was a statistically significant decrease in cell polferation between the control and exposed groups (p<0.05). Micronucleus frequency was significantly increased compared with negative control (p<0.005).
Conclusion: Results of the study, avocado oil had cytotoxic and genotoxic effects in a time and concentration dependent manner. Regular use of avocado oil as a dietary supplement has been shown to have a protective effect.

Avokado (Persea Americano) yağının meme kanseri hücre hattı (MCF-7) üzerindeki sitotoksik ve genotoksik etkilerinin in vitro ön değerlendirmesi

Öz

Amaç: Avokado (Persea Americana) yağının gıda takviyesi olarak kullanımında güvenliğinin anlaşılması için toksikolojik değerlendirilme yapılması gerekmektedir. Planlanan bu çalışmada avokado yağının MCF-7 hücre hattındaki sitotoksik ve genotoksik etkileri değerlendirilmiştir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada MCF-7 hücre hattı, avokado yağına (1, 10, 25 ve 100 ppm) ile 24, 48 ve 72 maruz bırakılarak sitotoksik ve genotoksik etkisi değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Avokado yağının IC50 değerleri 24, 48 ve 72 saat için sırasıyla; 68.1, 62.8 ve 64.3 ppm olarak bulunmuştur. Avokado yağının bütün maruziyet sürelerinde kontrol grubu ile maruziyet grupları arasında hücre poliferasyonundaki azalma istatiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Avokado yağına maruziyetine bağlı mikroçekirdek frekansında, tüm dozlarda negatif kontrole göre önemli artış görülmüştür (p<0,005).
Sonuç: Çalışmanın sonucunda avokado yağının MCF-7 hücre hattında zamana ve konstrasyona bağımlı olarak sitotoksik ve genotoksik etkilerinin olduğu görülmüştür. Avokado yağının gıda takviyesi olarak düzenli kullanılması sonucunda koruyucu etkisinin olabileceği görülmüştür.
