    Anti-Colorectal Cancer Effects of Medicinal Plants: Euphorbia Helioscopia, Ferula Elaeochytris, and Sideritis Albiflora
    (2021) Deveci, Ebru; Çayan, Gülsen Tel; Karakurt, Serdar; Duru, Mehmet Emin
    Phytochemicals, extracts, and mixtures obtained from plants have been offered as an option for cancer treatment and prevention for modern drug discovery in recent years. For this purpose, in this study, anti-colorectal cancer effects of the hexane, acetone, methanol, and water extracts obtained by sequential extraction from Euphorbia helioscopia L., Ferula elaeochytris Korovin, and Sideritis albiflora Hub.-Mor. on DLD-1 cell line were investigated in vitro by using Alamar blue assay. Dosedependent inhibition was detected in the viability of DLD-1 cell line. In all three plants species, E. helioscopia (IC50: 140.83±0.31 µg/mL), F. elaeochytris (IC50: 67.93±0.12 µg/mL), and S. albiflora (IC50: 85.12±0.10 µg/mL) methanol extracts showed higher anti-colorectal effects on DLD-1 cell line compared to other extracts tested for the same species. In addition, the IC50 value of doxorubicin used as a standard was found as 6.10±0.55 µg/mL. With the results obtained, as the first report highlighting in vitro anti-colorectal cancer effects of the studied plant species on DLD-1 cell line, promising marks were obtained from the analysis of the extracts as anti-cancer sources for plant-derived drug applications.

    Chemical Composition, in Vitro Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Activities of Marine Macroalgae Codium Fragile (suringar) Hariot
    (2022) Keskinkaya, Hatice Banu; Güneş, Erdoğan; Okudan, Emine Şükran; Akköz, Cengiz; Gümüş, Numan Emre; Karakurt, Serdar; Deveci, Ebru
    Marine algae, which are the primary producers living in aquatic areas, are the subject of many studies due to their importance as they are eukaryotic and eutrophic organisms that play a crucial role in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, fuel, and textile industries. Macroalgae are known in producing several macronutrients, micronutrients, and other important biologically active compounds (e.g. polyphenols, enzymes, and antibiotics) with potential pharmacological uses. In this research, we aimed to investigate the chemical composition, antimicrobial and antioxidant activities (with three assays), total phenolic (TPC) and flavonoid (TFC) contents of the methanol, ethanol, acetone, and water extracts of Codium fragile (Suringar) Hariot. The LC-ESI-MS/MS assessment allowed the identification of seven compounds containing gallic acid, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde, 4-hidroxybenzoic acid, p-coumaric acid, salicylic acid, biochanin A, and diosgenin. TPC and TFC of the extracts were calculated as in the range of 10.34±0.13-64.67±0.02 µg GAEs/mg extract and 12.73±2.68-36.78±1.08 µg QEs/mg extract, respectively. All extracts of C. fragile showed antimicrobial activity against all test pathogens at different levels. The methanol, ethanol, and acetone extracts showed different levels of activity against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria (MIC: 3.125-1.562 mg/mL). The water extract showed the highest activity in ABTS•+ (70.43±14.85%) and DPPH• (72.61±11.44%) assays while the acetone extract exhibited the best activity in CUPRAC (absorbance: 0.60±0.15) assay. The results we obtained approved that C. fragile could be valued as a natural source of bioactive agents for food preservatives and in other industrial and pharmaceutical fields.
