HOẠT TÍNH GÂY ĐỘC TẾ BÀO VÀ ỨC CHẾ MIỄN DỊCH CỦA CHẤT METHYL CAFFEATE PHÂN LẬP TỪ LOÀI NGỌC CẨU (BALANOPHORA LAXIFLORA)
Abstract
Methyl caffeate, a major component, was isolated by column chromatography from Balanophora laxiflora growing in Tuyen Quang. The cytotoxic activity of
methyl caffeate has been evaluated using A549, T24, Huh-7, 8505c and SNU-1 cell lines. Results showed that methyl caffeate exhibited cytotoxic activity against all
five tested human cancer cell lines (A549, T24, Huh-7, 8505 and SNU-1) with the IC50 values ranging from 28.83g/mL to 50.19g/mL. In addition, the
immunosuppressive capacity of methyl caffeate through inhibition of IL-2 expression in macrophage cells (RAW264.7) was assessed for the first time. The results
exhibited that methyl caffeate had a strong inhibitory effect on IL-2 cytokine secretion on RAW264.7 cells at a concentration of 100µg/mL (P < 0.01). These results
suggest that methyl caffeate could possess immunosuppressive effects in vitro.
