BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Cancer is one of the most leading death causing diseases in Indonesia, since until now no effective treatment has been found, especially for late stage of cancer. Cancer is caused by neoplasia which is an abnormal proliferation of cells within a tissue or an organ, resulting in a mass known as a neoplasm. Tumor is a neoplasm that has formed a lump; while other type of neoplasm may not form a lump, for example cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, anal intraepithelial neoplasia, and leukemia. Neoplasm may be benign; however it can also be malignant. A benign neoplasm includes, for example, leiomyoma or uterine fibroids and melanocytic nevi or moles. A malignant neoplasm includes, for example, teratoma, also includes various kinds of cancer, including breast cancer.

One of the prevention and treatment method against cancer is by using herbal medicine. One of the plants that possess anti cancer properties is Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff.) Boerl., a native plant of Papua that is widely known in Indonesia as "mahkota dewa".

In Indonesian patent application P00 2005 00077, it has been taught that the flavonoid extract of mahkota dewa was useful as anticancer based on its ability to reduce tyrosine kinase activity, its capacity as antioxidant, and its activity against HeLa cancer cells.

In this assay, the effect of E2.2 and F1 compounds as anti proliferation and E2.2 compound as apoptosis inducer against MDA-MB-231 cancer cells will be observed. MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in supplemented medium cells, and then incubated at temperature 37.degree. C., 5% CO.sub.2.

1. Method

a. Anti-Proliferation Assay of MDA-MB-231 Cancer Cells

This assay was performed in 96-well plates. Each well contained certain cancer cell density. After incubation for 24 hours, medium was changed into serum free medium, after that it was added with E2.2 compound sample as a single agent in various concentrations, so was with F1 compound. Cells were then re-incubated and after that the number of alive cells after treatment was determined by cell death determination assay. Absorbance value was read in microplate reader. After the absorbance value was converted with standard curve, the number of alive and death cells can be obtained.

Percentage of the number of alive cells in each treatment can be counted by counting the number of alive cells at wells that received treatment divided with the number of alive cells at healthy control and multiplied with 100%. % The number of alive cells=B/A.times.100% Notes: A is the number of alive cells at healthy control, and B is the number of alive cells that received treatment. IC50 value is a number showing a sample concentration that causes death as much as 50% in a population. Such value is obtained using BioStat statistical program. b. DNA Fragmentation Analysis Method

Apoptosis is an active process of cell death marked with DNA chromosome cleavage, chromatin condensation, and also DNA fragmentation. In this experiment, it was observed the effect of E2.2 compound addition toward the formation of DNA fragmentation as one of apoptosis indicators. Cells were cultured in the plates. After incubation for 24 hours, it was added with E2.2 compound in various concentrations. DNA fragmentation determination was performed using DNA Apoptosis Ladder Kit. DNA fragmentation results were observed in electrophoresis gel, visualized using ethidium bromide.

c. Method of RNA Isolation and RT-PCR

BCl.sub.2 and Bax genes are genes acting in apoptosis process. To identify BCl.sub.2 and Bax mRNA expressions, RT-PCR (reverse-transcription PCR) was performed. MDA-MB-231 cancer cells were grown in plates and added with E2.2 compound samples as a single agent in various concentrations. Experiment condition was performed in serum free medium. RNA total was isolated from MDA-MB-231 cancer cells. RNA isolation products were quantified using spectrophotometer and visualized by agarose gel electrophoresis technique. The RNAs were then used in RT-PCR process using specific primers. RT-PCR process was performed in PCR machine with optimized condition. RT-PCR products were observed in electrophoresis gel which visualized using ethidium bromide.

2. Results

a. Assay Results of the Effect of E2.2 and F1 Compounds Against Proliferation of MDA-MB-231 Cancer Cells

Results showed that E2.2 and F1 compounds indicated anti proliferation effect in MDA-MB-231 cells. This was shown by significant decrease of percentage of alive cancer cell along with increase of the extract concentration. This was shown in FIG. 7 for F1 compound and FIG. 8 for E2.2 compound. Percentage data of alive cells were used in counting 1050 in MDA-MB-231 cells. IC50 value obtained from E2.2 compound in MTT result was 36.91 .mu.g/mL while from F1 compound in MTT result was 65.80 .mu.g/mL. Data was obtained using BioStat statistical program.

b. DNA Fragmentation Analysis Result

DNA fragments from samples obtained from MDA-MB-231 cells and treated with E2.2 compound in concentration 50, 75, and 100 .mu.g/mL showed that E2.2 compound has an apoptosis inducer effect. One of apoptosis markers is the formation of DNA fragments as shown in FIG. 9.

c. BCl.sub.2 and Bax RT-PCR Results

BCl.sub.2 gene is one of oncogenes of BCL-2 family member which has an antiapoptotic property. BCL-2 family member is divided into two groups activities, proapoptosis and antiapoptosis. Cell sensitivity in stimulating apoptosis depends on the balance between proapoptotic and antiapoptotic proteins. If the proapoptotic proteins are abundant, then a cell will tend to undergo apoptosis, but if the antiapoptotic proteins are abundant then a cell will tend to resist against death.

From the PCR results using BCl.sub.2 specific primer, there was a downregulation of BCl.sub.2 mRNA expression in MDA-MB-231 cells after treated with E2.2 compound. On the gel, it was observed that bands of BCl.sub.2 gene amplification products were narrower by increasing the extract concentration administered. Quantitatively, the downregulation of BCl.sub.2 in mRNA level is illustrated in FIGS. 10a and 1b.

Contrary to that BCl.sub.2, there was an upregulation of Bax in mRNA level in MDA-MB-231 cells. Analysis result showed that the higher E2.2 compound concentration, the denser the bands produced. See FIGS. 11a and 11b.

3. Discussion and Conclusion

Conclusion of the experiment results is that E2.2 and F1 compounds could induce inhibition of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell proliferation. IC50 value obtained from E2.2 compound was 36.91 .mu.g/mL while from F1 compound was 65.80 .mu.g/mL.

A material is called active having antiproliferation effect if it has IC50<100 .mu.g/mL. Both compounds, E2.2 and F1 compounds, are benzophenone group which has cancer cell growth inhibition activity. The above results showed that E2.2 compound was more potent to inhibit cancer cell growth at lower dose compared to F1 compound. Therefore the apoptosis assay was more focused on E2.2 compound. The above data also showed that E2.2 and F1 compounds have potency as anti proliferation of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells.

Indication of apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cells after administration of E2.2 compound is formation of DNA fragments, decrease of Bcl.sub.2 mRNA expression and increase of Bax mRNA expression. Such results support deduction that E2.2 and F1 compounds are able to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and therefore it can be used as anti cancer. In addition, E2.2 and F1 compounds can be used to treat diseases caused by neoplasia (abnormal proliferation) also gynecological related diseases, such as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, anal intraepithelial neoplasia, leukemia, leiomyoma, adenoma, and cyst related to breast, uterus, cervical, and ovary.
