    Canbolat, Deniz; Turan, Ibrahim; Küpeli, Yunus Emre; Kilinç, Sedanur; Piliç, Sevim

    Propolis, which has been used in traditional medicine for hundreds of years all over the world, is a resinous natural product with a complex content obtained by honey bees by mixing the buds of plants and pollen grains with enzymes they secrete. Propolis may have different contents due to the gathering region, plant source, bee variety and climate of the place where it is collected. Although there are many studies related to different regions, so far the propolis of the Savsat region in Artvin have not been studied yet. The aim of this study is to determine the antioxidant properties (determination of iron reducing power, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, total phenolic and total flavonoid content) of propolis extracts of Artvin Savsat region prepared with phosphate buffer salt solution (PBS) prepared at different temperatures (45 and 60 degrees C) and to determine the erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition properties of the extracts. Total phenolic (11.91 +/- 0.5-24.14 +/- 1.38 mg gallic acid equivalent to g propolis) and total flavonoid (1.79 +/- 0.03-2.13 +/- 0.07 mg quercetin equivalent to g propolis) content of PBS extracts, iron power determination (12.80 +/- 0.36-27.15 +/- 0.12 mg ascorbic acid equivalent to g propolis), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrilhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (%22.86 +/- 0.5-31.24 +/- 1.33) and erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition (%55.58 +/- 0.57-96.37 +/- 0.02) were determined using spectrophotometric methods. As a result of the experiments, it was determined that the extract with PBS obtained at a temperature of 60 degrees C was higher than the extract obtained at 45 degrees C, in terms of antioxidant properties and erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition ratio. Further studies are required to identify molecules that inhibit erythrocyte hemolysis in extracts and have antioxidant properties.

    In vitro Antioxidant and Cytotoxic Activities of Extracts of Endemic Tanacetum erzincanense Together with Phenolic Content by LC-ESI-QTOF-MS

    Yapıcı, İsmail; Altay, Ahmet; Öztürk Sarıkaya, Beyza; Korkmaz, Mustafa; Atila, Alptuğ; Gülçin, İlhami; Köksal, Ekrem

    In this study, phenolic composition, and in vitro biological activities of ethyl acetate (EAE) and methanol (ME) extracts obtained from the aerial parts of endemic Tanacetum erzincanense were investigated. Total phenolic and flavonoid content of the extracts were determined by Folin-Ciocalteu and aluminum chloride colorimetric methods, respectively. Antioxidant capacity of the extracts was evaluated over radical scavenging (DPPH and ABTS) and metal ion reducing power (FRAP and CUPRAC) tests. Individual phenolic compounds in ME was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-QTOF/MS). Cell inhibitory potential of the extracts was tested against colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), and hepatocarcinoma (HepG2) cells by 2,3-bis(2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium-5-carboxanilide (XTT) assay. The results showed that ME contains higher TPC (64.4 mg GAE/g) and TFC (62.2 mg QE/g) than those of EAE (41.5 mg GAE/g and 40.0 mg QE/g). LC-ESI-QTOF/MS analysis revealed that ME is rich in phenolic compounds, namely, chlorogenic acid, apigenin, quercetin, luteolin, and diosmetin. Antioxidant assay results indicated that ME possess stronger activity than EAE and a power that competes with synthetic antioxidants. XTT assay results demonstrated that although both extracts displayed a considerable cytotoxicity against the tested cancer cell lines in a time and dose-dependent manner, ME expressed its selective inhibitory action towards MCF-7 cells with an IC50 value of 20.4 μg/mL for 72 h. These results may serve as a basis for further in vivo studies to examine the potential applications of T. erzincanense in food and pharmaceutical industries.

    Demir, Selim; Turan, Ibrahim; Aliyazicioglu, Yuksel

    Rhododendron luteum belongs to the genus Rhododendron, members of which are frequently used in folk medicine. Various studies have investigated the cytotoxic effect of different Rhododendron species, but there have been limited studies of the cytotoxic effect of R. luteum. The aim of this study was to investigate the antioxidant properties and cytotoxic effect of R. luteum leaf extract on the human cancer cells. The total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), and reducing power of the extract were evaluated using spectrophotometric procedures. The cytotoxic effect of the extract on five cancers (human breast, colon, lung, prostate, and liver carcinoma) and human fibroblast cells was determined using the MTT assay. TPC and reducing power values of extract were found 173.2 +/- 3.97 mg gallic acid equivalents, and 629.5 +/- 3.49 mg trolox equivalents per g sample, respectively. R. luteum leaf extract exhibited selective cytotoxicity especially against colon (1.9 fold) and liver (2.2 fold) cancer cells compared to normal fibroblast cells. This is the first study to reveal the cytotoxic effect of R. luteum leaf extract. Further studies are now needed to identify the cytotoxic molecules in the extract and their mechanisms.

    Objective: Propolis is an important bee product, rich in polyphenolic compounds. It has antitumoral, antioxidant, antimutagenic, and other useful activities. Biological activities of propolis are generally attributed to its substance of polyphenolic compounds. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro antioxidant properties and reduction amount of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in human normal foreskin fibroblast cells by Turkish propolis ethanolic extract (EEP). Method: Total phenolic and flavonoid contents, reducing power, radical scavenging capacity, and iron chelating activity of EEP were determined using spectrophotometric methods. Intracellular ROS levels were determined by spectrofluorometric analysis with CM-H2 DCFDA. Results: Our results indicated that antioxidant activity was correlated with the higher total phenolic and flavonoid contents of EEP. The generated ROS levels were significantly decreased by EEP compared to only t-BHP group. Conclusion: Ethanolic propolis extract may be evaluated as a potency antioxidant resource and/or a novel natural agent in food and drug industries.
