Anti-viral and Anti-cancer Effect of Sea Cucumber Extracts

Anti-viral and Anti- rousecer Effect of ocean Cucumber ExtractsThe Anti-viral and Anti- crabmeat center of secondary metabolite pull ins from sea cuke (Holothuria leucospilota) in vitroAbstractocean cuke is employ as regimen purposes and traditional medicine in Asia and nerve center East society. In this scientific study we try to examine antiviral issue of organic extracts, obtained from sea cuke Holothuria leucospilota species against HIV-1. For this reason, sea cuke collected from 10-30 meters depths, most Larak Island. In order to extract, were used from wood spirit and diethyl divinyl ethoxyethane terminations. All obtained extracts turn by rotary evaporator in 40 C and then changed to lyophilise powder by vacuum freeze dryer. after(prenominal) that, potential antiviral issuance of each extracts on HIV-1 was investigated. The results of this experiments showed that each(prenominal) extracts in some assimilations were fitting to inhibit the replication of HIV-1. IC50 for their was variable surrounded by 5.03 1.90 g/ml until 337.60 1.34 g/ml . but cytotoxic effect of only extracts in armament cubiclephone were to a fault many and CC50 for their was variable between 5.11 1.89 g/ml until 56.27 1.54 g/ml. results shown detail aether dead body protect extract yield highest antiviral effect and also it was relatively less(prenominal) cytotoxic effect. 2.79 TI for this extract was shown, it has potential to inhibit HIV-1 after line and extract effective substances.For survey anti-cancer probably effect have used XTT examine. The results of this experiment showed, all disparate extracts could be able to prevent valet de chambre carcinoma oral epidermoid cells (KB) in some concentration. But also, they had strong cytotoxic effect on normal cell line (HEK293T). Totaly between all different extracts, body debate diethyl ether extract had less cytotoxic effect on normal cells and with 2.46 TI major power, showed rather antica ncer activitythan some new(prenominal) extract. portalIn recent years, many bioactive compounds identify and derived from various oceanic organisms. Searches for endanger new metabolites led to isolated 10,000 new combination from marine animals. umpteen of these compounds argon related to medicine and pharmacy. This compounds and natural products have been source of materials that have medicine effects (Faulkner, 1996). These bioactive compounds isolated from various marine organisms, including Corals, crabs, seaweeds, Echinoderms, fishes, sponges and etc.Sea cucumbers belong to the phylum Echinodermata, pisseding that, they ar spiny-skinned, under the class Holothuridea. They atomic upshot 18 run aground throughout the nearshore coral reef environment and argon also build in the deepest parts of the ocean. Sea cucumbers play an important role in reef recycling, gathering organic detritus and bacteria from the water or sand for food. These particles are digested by the animals in order to extract nutrients, a process that helps turn over sediments to maintain an environment that supports other marine life. Other animals, including fish, crustaceans, and molluscs, eat sea cucumber eggs, larvae and juveniles making them an important section of the food web. many another(prenominal) species eject Cuvierian tubules when threatened. These are very sticky and can be toxic or irritating to predators. They are a respective(a) group of flexible, elongated, worm-like organ- isms, with a leathery skin and gelatinous body, resembling cucumber (Bordbar, Anwar, Saari, 2011)Sea cucumbers are one of the marine animals which are important as gay food source, particularly in some parts of Asia . Sea cucumbers, informally named as bche-de-mer, or gamat, have long been used for food and folk medicine in the communities of Asia and Middle East.In Holothuria leucospilota put up specimens have reddish-purple until black and their color is converted to brownish-pi nk in alcohol. they have rounded body and their abdomen is a little flat. The body wall of the sea cucumber lacks the rigidity found in other echinoderms be progress to the calcareous plates (ossicles) that appease the skeletal system are very small and widely isolated. These ossicles are secreted by special cells called sclerocytes and are embedded in the outer layers of the skin. Ossicles are species-specific in structure and complexity, and can be used to identify species ( Lambert., 2005).Many bioactive compounds have been reported from different species of sea cucumber. A number of these compounds receive biological activity (Bryan et al., 1992 Villasin and Pomory, 2000) Some of sea cucumber species in Malaysia water are being used in traditional medicine to deal wound, eczema, arthritis or hypertension (Farouk et al., 2007). Sea cucumbers have been well recognized as a tonic and traditional remedy in Chinese and Malaysian literature for their effectiveness against hyperten sion, asthma, rheumatism, compacts and burns, impotence and constipation 1823. Several unique biological and pharmacological activities namely anti-angiogenic 24, anticancer 25, anticoagulant 26,27, anti-hypertension 28, anti-inflammatory 2931, antimicrobial 32,33, antioxidant 34, antithrombotic 35,36, antitumor 37,38, and wound healing 39 have been ascribed to chemical compounds extracted from different sea cucumber species (Bordbar et al., 2011).These medicinal benefits and health functions of sea cucumbers can be attributed to the presence of appreciable amounts of bioactive compounds, especially the triterpene glycosides (saponins) 4042, chondroitin sulfates 43, glycosaminoglycan 26,36, sulfated polysaccharides 44, sterols (glycosides and sulfates) 45, phenolics 46, peptides 47, cerberosides 48 and lectins 4951.Unlike bacteria, fungi and parasites, viruses have no cellular structure. when Viruses are outside live cells they behave like organic compounds and they are not able to replicate and clone unconditionally. They do not have interior(a) cytoplasmic organs much(prenominal) as ribosomes, mitochondria and lysosome.HIV-1 virus or kind immunodeficiency virus is an RNA virus of the retrovirus that causes acquired immunodeficiency disease (AIDS) in worlds. According to the existence Health Organization, 60 million people worldwide are vitiateed with HIV and each day 5,700 lose their live because of this disease.( UNAIDS, 2010)HIV tends to infect and kill T lymphocytes that cause reduction and losing horde cellular resistor and impart make susceptibility to opportunistic infections. The presence of various materials, such as Liouvillosides A and B which are trisulfated triterpene glycosides and fucosylated chondroitin sulfates (FCS), are causing turn up anti-viral effects in extracts of these animals.The body is made up of trillions of living cells. universal body cells grow, divide into new cells, and die in an orderly fashion. During the earl ier years of a somebodys life, normal cells divide faster to forgo the person to grow. aft(prenominal) the person manufactures an adult, close cells divide only to replace worn-out(a) or dying cells or to repair injuries. cancer begins when cells in a part of the body start to grow out of control. There aremany kinds of cancer, but they all start because of out-of-control harvest-feast of abnormal cells. Cancer cell offset is different from normal cell growth. Instead of dying, cancer cells continue to grow and form new, abnormal cells. Cancer cells can also invade (grow into) other tissues, something that normal cells cannot do. Growing out of control and attack other tissues are what makes a cell a cancer cell.Cells become cancer cells because of impairment to desoxyribonucleic acid. DNA is in every cell and directs all its actions. In a normal cell, when DNA gets damaged the cell all repairs the damage or the cell dies. In cancer cells, the damaged DNA is not repaired, but the cell doesnt die like it should. Instead, this cell goes on making new cells that the body does not need. These new cells will all have the same damaged DNA as the depression cell does. People can inherit damaged DNA, but most DNA damage is caused by mistakes that happen while the normal cell is reproducing or by something in our environment. Sometimes the cause of the DNA damage is something obvious, like cigarette smoking. But often no clear cause is found.Material and methodsSample collectionAll samples collected from 10-30 meters depth around Larak Island and they had transferred to shore with ice. Upon reaching the shore, samples were frozen using dry ice and transported to the laboratory. Samples unplowed in separated labeled plastic bags in frozen at -20 C until extraction.ExtractionSampels thawed with water and then mud, or sand, international particles remaining from the body surface and were washed away with work stoppage water. Samples were cuted from both side s of the midline of the body. internal organs separated from body wall and they cleaned with tap water before extraction.Extracts were prepared following Naik et al. at eldest, fresh holothurians were rinsed and cut into small pieces. Then cut samples moved to Erlenmeyer with 1000 cc diethyl ether solvent. The sample was collected in diethyletter about 24 hours, the semi- polar and non- poplar extraction was produced. After solution filtered and evaporating diethyletter to dryness, at low pressure at 35- 40C by using Rota vapor.Then the sample put in methanol for 72 hours, The polar extraction was produced The polar compounds in the phase of methanol- sedimentary extracts were separated. The concentrated methanol extracts was then dried to obtain jolty semi-solid extracts. The crude extract was then weighted and percentages of extraction from sea cucumber were calculated. After 72 hours evaporating methanol to dryness, at low pressure at 40-45 C by using Rota vapor and at the end , extract changed to lyophilized powder by vacuum freeze dryer.Production of Pseudotyped Single-Cycle ReplicableHIV Virions Single-cycle replicable HIV-1 (SCR HIV-1) virions were constructed by deleting a 2-kb segment within the Pol region of the HIV-1 genome from the pNL4-3 strain (provided by Dr. Navid Madani). Pseudotyped SCR HIV- 1 virions were produced by co-transfection of HEK293T cells with pmzNL4-3 (containing the mutated genome), psPAX2, and pMD2G plasmids obtained from Addgene (www.addgene.org) (10, 11). The pmzNL4-3 plasmid encodes the HIV-1 full-length RNA, with packaging ability containing the above-mentioned deletion in the Pol region the psPAX2 plasmid encodes HIV clog and Gag-Pro-Pol polyproteins, in addition to all the viral accessory proteins and the pMD2G plasmid encodes the vesicular stomatitis virus surface glycoprotein (VSVG), which is necessary for virion assembly and the budding process. These pseudotyped virions are able to infect a broad spectrum of cells , even without the CD4 receptor. After co-transfection of the HEK293T cells with theabove-mentioned plasmids by using the Polyfect reagent (Qiagen, Germany), supernatant containing thevirions was harvested at 24, 48, and 72 h. Virus stock was concentrated 20 times by ultracentrifugation, p24 laden was quantified (HIV p24 ELISA, Biomerieux, France), and the stock was stored at -70C (10, 11)Cell linesThe humane immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) give cell line Hela and human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293T cells and Human carcinoma oral epidermoid cells (KB) (American Type Culture Collection) were cultured at 37C with 5% CO2 in RPMI1640 medium (Biosera, England) and DMEM (Biosera, England), respectively. The media were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Biosera, England), 200 units/mL of penicillin G, and 80g/mL of streptomycin (Sigma, USA).XTT-Based Cytotoxicity AssayThe cellular toxicity of methanol and diethyl ether extracts in HEK293T, Hela and KB cells were assessed using a cel l proliferation XTT kit (Roche Diagnostics, Germany), as draw previously (9). Briefly, cells were plated in triplicate in 96-well plates in the presence or absence of various concentrations of methanol and diethyl ether extracts. After incubation at 37C with 5% CO2 for 3 days, 50 L of prepared XTT mixture was added to each well. The cells were incubated for an additional 4 h to allow the production of XTT formazan. Absorbance was measured using an ELISA plate reader (BioTek ELx800) at a test wavelength of 450 nm and a reference wavelength of 690 nm. Percent ban was calculated using the following formula Inhibition (%) = 100 (At/ As) 100, where As is the absorbance of the solvent and At, of the test sample, respectively. The cytotoxic concentration that resulted in a reduction of the number of viable cells by 50% (CC50) was calculated from dosageresponse curves.Replication assayvesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSVG)-SCR virions can infect Hela cells and complete their re plication cycle by assembling of inactive virions. Hela cells (6104) were seeded in each well of 24 well plates containing 250 l of complete medium and infected with 400 ng P24 VSVG-SCR virions. Cells and virions were incubated together overnight and cells were then washed two times with pre-warmed 5% FBS supplemented DMEM. Complete medium (400 l) was added into each well and cell supernatants were analyzed for p24 load after 48 hrs (HIV P24 ELISA, BIOMERIEUX).ResultAntitumor effect of the sea cucumber extractsEvaluations of sea cucumber H. leucospilota extracts for potential anticancer activity on growth human cancer cell lines, Human carcinoma oral epidermoid cells (KB) and human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293T) were evaluated by XTT assay. wood alcohol digestive organs extract with 2.46 TI index (table 1), showed better anti-cancer effect than other extracts obtained from sea cucumber. Compared to untempered control was detected. The dose dependent decreasing in the percentage of viability of treated cancer cells analyze to controls was giveed in the (Fig. 1A to D). As shown in (Fig. 1B), among the other extracts, only methanol digestive organs exhibited antiproliferative effects against the cancer cells. In addition this extract was rather less cytotoxic against HEK293T compared with other extracts. Bars represent direction of triplicate determinations, and error bar indicate SD.
