In vitro Antiproliferative Activity of Lissotriton schmidtleri (Raxworthy, 1988) Skin Secretion on Human Breast Cancer (MCF7) Cell Line

Öz

: In this study, the in vitro antiproliferative activity of Lissotriton schmidtleri skin secretion on estrogen-sensitive human breast cancer (MCF7) cells was reported for the first time. The effects of L. schmidtleri skin secretion at concentrations of 0.5, 5, and 50 μg/mL on the MCF7 cell line were evaluated using the MTT assay after 48 hours of incubation. According to the MTT assay results, L. schmidtleri skin secretion inhibited MCF7 cell viability by approximately 64% at a concentration of 50 μg/mL, with an IC50 value calculated as 20.81 ± 0.87 μg/mL. Based on these findings, it is suggested that L. schmidtleri skin secretion may serve as a potential anticancer agent against breast cancer.

Lissotriton schmidtleri (Raxworthy, 1988) Deri Salgısının İnsan Meme Kanseri (MCF7) Hücre Hattı Üzerindeki in vitro Antiproliferatif Aktivitesi

Öz

Bu çalışmada, Lissotriton schmidtleri deri salgısının östrojen duyarlı insan meme kanseri (MCF7) hücreleri üzerindeki in vitro antiproliferatif aktivitesi ilk kez rapor edilmiştir. MCF7 hücre hattına, L. schmidtleri deri salgısının 0.5, 5 ve 50 μg/mL konsantrasyonları uygulanarak 48 saat inkübasyon sonundaki etkileri MTT testi ile belirlenmiştir. MTT testi sonucunda, L. schmidtleri deri salgısı, MCF7 hücre canlılığını 50 μg/mL konsantrasyonda yaklaşık %64 oranında inhibe etmiş ve IC50 değeri 20.81 ± 0.87 μg/mL olarak hesaplanmıştır. Elde edilen veriler ışığında, L. schmidtleri deri salgısının meme kanserine karşı potansiyel bir antikanser ajan olabileceği değerlendirilmiştir.
