The Effects of Medicinal Plants on Cancer Cell Lines and Efficacy of Experimental Animal Model
The use of medicinal plants as an alternative treatment is a historical process and has been known for a long time so that classical treatment can be more effective in wound and cancer treatment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of plant extracts used for therapeutic purposes...

| description | The use of medicinal plants as an alternative treatment is a historical
process and has been known for a long time so that classical treatment can be
more effective in wound and cancer treatment. The purpose of this study
was to investigate the effects of plant extracts used for therapeutic purposes
in cancer cell lines in vitro wound model and in vivo experimental animal model
in order to obtain this information. The plants, olive oil (Oleocanthal),
mistletoe (Viscum album), Common
Centaury (Centaurium erythraea), Momordica charantia, Inula viscosa, Citrus
aurantium, Thyme oil (Thymus vulgaris) and algae (Jania longifurca), were used. MCF-7, MB-MDA-231, 67NR and 4T1 for
breast, NB2a for neuron, L929 for fibroblast and normal somatic mesenchymal
stem cell for comparison were selected for in vitro wound models. As an in vivo
breast cancer model, female Balb/c mice were injected with 4T1 cells and skin
wound healing in rats was investigated. The effects of medicinal plants were
evaluated using MTT assay for viability and proliferation, immunocytochemistry
staining NOS for oxidative stress and TGFbeta1 for wound healing. It was found
that plant extracts reduced antioxidative damage and inhibited apoptosis. It
was observed that oxidative stress and apoptosis were increased in cancer
cells, but less effective in invasive cell lines. In vivo experiments showed
that wound healing was accelerated and that these rates were achieved with antioxidative
and antiapoptotic effects. It has been concluded that medicinal plants are
beneficial for treatment of difficult diseases in which patient quality of life
is very effective and they should be used as scientific-based medical
applications. |
