Cytotoxicity of Blended Versus Single Medicinal Mushroom Extracts on Human Ca...Jolene1981
ABSTRACT: The use of mushrooms contributes to human nutrition by providing low lipid content of lipids and high dietary fiber content, as well as significant content of other biologically active compounds such as polysaccharides, minerals, vitamins, and polyphenolic antioxidants. This study aimed to determine the content of polyphenols and polysaccharides, as well as the cytotoxic and antioxidative properties of several medicinal mushroom preparations. The content of total phenols and flavonoids of preparations of blended mushroom extracts (Lentifom, Super Polyporin, Agarikon, Agarikon Plus, Agarikon.1, and Mykoprotect.1) was evaluated quantitatively by using ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy spectrophotometric methods. The antioxidant capacity of the preparations was evaluated using the ABTS (2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) and ferric reducing/antioxidant power assays. The content of water-soluble polysaccharides was determined using a specific gravimetric method, based on ethanol precipitation. To determine cytotoxic effects of single and blended mushroom extracts, MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) and neutral red assays were conducted using human small cell lung cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, colon cancer, and brain astrocytoma cancer cells. The obtained results suggest that due to the significant content of beneficial polyphenolic antioxidants and soluble polysaccharides, use of these mushroom preparations is beneficial in maintaining good health, as well as in the prevention and adjuvant biotherapy of various human pathological aberrations. These results reveal that these extracts exhibit different cytotoxic effects on tumor cells originating from different tissues. In addition, the comparison of investigated blended mushroom extracts with three well-known commercial mushroom products derived from single mushroom species or single mushroom compounds shows that blended mushroom extracts exhibit significantly stronger cytotoxic effects on human tumor cell lines.

Phytochemical Screening and Evaluation of Cytotoxicity and Thrombolytic Prope...IOSR Journals
The rural and marginal people of Bangladesh are deprived of modern treatment facilities and hence greatly depend on medicinal plants. Besides, the higher cost and toxicity of synthetic drugs drives scientists towards search for natural source of medication for a number of diseases. Cost-effectiveness, easy availability and fewer side effects are making the herbal medicine more popular both among rural and city people. Plants with Cytotoxic and clot lysis potential are good candidate as source of novel anti-tumor agents and thrombolytic drugs. This study aimed at screening out of phytochemical constituents and evaluation of cytotoxicity and thrombolytic potential of an important medicinal plant Achyranthes aspera methanolic leaf extract. In vitro phytochemical screening of A. aspera leaf extract carried out by qualitative tests revealed the presence of alkaloids, glycosides, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, steroids and saponins while phlobatannins were absent. Cytotoxicity test of A. aspera leaf extract carried out by Brine shrimp Lethality (BSL) Bioassay showed the highest percentage of mortality (90%) in 1250 μg/ml and LC50 value was 50.12 μg/ml. Thrombolytic test showed 32.87 ± 9.42% clot lytic activity for A. aspera while positive control (streptokinase) and negative control (water) showed 81.19 ± 3.78% and 6.67 ± 2.58% clot lysis, respectively. Synergistic effect of streptokinase and A. aspera extract also produced better result (56.30 ± 6.95%) than A. aspera alone.
ABSTRACT- Researches on PC-3 human prostate cancer cell lines control are needed in the present decades. The
anticancer activity of aqueous extract of Ipomoea sepiaria was investigated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,
5-diphenyltetrazolium (MTT) assay using PC-3 cell line. The present experimentation was showed that aqueous extract
of Ipomoea sepiaria, when subjected to different concentrations on PC-3 cells showed IC50 cell inhibition at about
5μM for 48 hours and about 2μM for 72 hours. PTEN interacts with other expression proteins like Jun proto-oncogene,
V-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 and 2, Tumor protein p53, Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate
3-kinase, etc. The present experiment shown that the leaf extract may involve in protein suppressor mechanism for
PTEN in controlling of prostate cancer.

Growth inhibitory effects of vitamin k2 (menaquinones mk4) on bladder carcin...NAAR Journal
Ubiad1 is a tumor suppressor gene ubiquitously expressed in normal
human tissues and its protein harbors a prenyltransferase functional
domain conserved throughout the evolution. The ability of human
UBIAD1 enzyme to synthesize menaquinone-4 (MK-4) rescues
mitochondrial dysfunction in Drosophila and effectively initiates
apoptosis in various types of tumors through a caspase-dependent
pathway. The objective is to study menaquinone-4-induced apoptosis
signaling pathway and to investigate its anti-tumor activity in human
prostate (PC-3, LNCaP) and bladder (T24, J82) tumor cell lines, an
approach that has not been undertaken yet. Cell viability of cancerous cells
pre-treated with MK-4 showed a significant decrease in dose- and timedependent manner. Moreover, flow cytometry detected apoptotic cells
after treatment with the vitamin. Taken together, these observations
suggest that MK-4 could inhibit cell growth by promoting apoptosis in
prostate and bladder carcinoma cells via different-mediated signal
pathways, making it a potential therapeutic molecule for the prevention
and the cure of cancers.

www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.

ABSTRACT
Using the Cell Titer 96 MTT Proliferation Assay, the antiproliferative effects of methanol leaf extracts of Vernonia
amygdalina (V. amygdalina) Del (Asteraceae) on Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells (VSMC) and Human Colorectal
Adenocarcinoma Cell line (HT 29) were examined. The extract was administered to VSMC at log doses of 200 and
800 g/mL and incubated for 24 and 48 hours. Extracts were also incubated for varying amounts of time with VEGF
and ET-1 (the mitogens). The HT 29 cell line was treated with varying concentrations of extract (200, 400, and 700
g/mL) for 24, 48, and 72 hours. After 24 hours, both the plant extract and the mitogens had a greater impact on
VSMC proliferation than the plant extract alone or in the presence of mitogens (except at 200 g/mL, when there was
no proliferation in the presence of ET-1). The increase in growth was much more noticeable after 48 hours. Increase
of 153.3% was seen, for instance, when 800 g/mL of V. amygdalina was combined with VEGF. In the cytotoxic
trial with HT 29, the extract was cytotoxic throughout the whole dosage range. At 72 hours, 69.2% of cells were
inhibited by a V. amygdalina dose of 200 g/mL. However, it should be pointed out that the extract's impact was
most evident and persistent at the 24-hour time point. From these results, we may infer that although the extract
stimulates VSMC proliferation, it has the opposite impact on the HT 29 cell line. Since the extract was shown to
have inhibitory effects on the HT 29 cell line, this suggests that it displays a cytotoxic impact and might potentially
serve as lead agents in the quest for an anticancer medication derived from natural sources.
Keywords: V. amygdalina; HT 29; VSMC; anticancer; VEGF; ET-1.
1. INTRODUCTION
The identification of substances that may either slow
or speed up cell division is crucial in the fields of
cell biology and drug development. More than 25%
of medications during the last few of decades have
come from plant species, and another 25% have been
chemically modified from their original state. About
5-15% of the 250,000 or more higher plants have
had their bioactive chemicals researched [1,2].
New and unique products from possible bioactive
plants or their extracts for disease treatment and
prevention are still enormous [3], despite the fact
that synthetic chemistry has developed as a
technique of drug discoveries and drug manufactures
in recent years. The virtually infinite potential of
plants to produce chemicals that interest scientists in
their hunt for novel chemotherapeutics [4].
Cancer is one of the worst illnesses people may get,
but scientists have recently made important
discoveries in the development of novel anticancer
drugs derived from natural chemicals [5]. Surgery,
radiation therapy, immunotherapy, and
chemotherapy are all alternatives for treatment, but
they are either too hazardous, too costly, or both.
This prompted the research of potential herbal
treatments with anti- Cancerous behavior. Natural
compounds from plants have demonstrated great
promise in reducing cancer while presenting few or
no side effects, and medicinal plants have long been
utilized to treat a wide range of chronic conditions.
This is why plant extracts are becoming more
popular as an alternative to conventional medication.
In reality, because to a lack of access to allopathic
medication [6-9], as much as 80% of the population
in poor nations relies on herbal therapy to cure
various ailments.

3. While chemotherapy may prolong a cancer patient's
life by a few years, it comes with the danger of fatal
host toxicity and other major side effects [10]. There
is a growing interest in and understanding of the fact
that chemotherapeutic medicines work largely by
causing cancer cell death through the process of
apoptosis, and there is a corresponding desire for the
employment of alternative ideas or tactics for cancer
prevention. Many tumors, however, are genetically
programmed to resist apoptosis, making it imperative
to create new medications for combination
chemotherapy [11,12]. Natural extracts' chemo-
protective potential may be better understood by
measuring their anti-proliferative effects on cancer
cells using the MTT test.
Chemoprevention relies heavily on early-stage
cancer eradication [13].
The Asteraceae family member Vernonia
amygdalina Del is used for its therapeutic properties,
and it is found over most of East and West Africa
[14,15]. Bitter leaf, also known as berberine, has
potential as a cancer-fighting agent [16], as well as
against germs, malaria, and parasites [17]. The
plant's complex active components have therapeutic
use in pharmacology. Both the roots and the leaves
are used in traditional medicine [18,19] to alleviate
symptoms such as fever, hiccups, renal issues, and
abdominal pain.
Vernonia amygdalina chloroform extract was
originally found to have an anti-cancer effect in
human carcinoma of the nasopharynx [20,21]. This
effect was subsequently confirmed in leukemia cells
P-388 and L-1210. Water-soluble leaf extracts at low
concentrations (g/mL) significantly inhibited the
proliferation of estrogen receptor positive (ER+)
human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells in vitro, as
shown by research by Izevbigie [16]. Treatment with
Vernonia amygdalina- has been demonstrated in
other research [22] to affect phase 1 and phase 2
gene expressions in MCF-7 cells in a time- and dose-
dependent manner. The purpose of this investigation
was to assess Vernonia amygdalina's (VA) methanol
leaf extract's (VE) effects on vascular smooth muscle
cells (VSMC) and the HT29 cell line.
2. MATERIALS AND METHODS
2.1 Collections and Identification of Plant
Materials
Fresh leaves of Vernonia amygdalina were
collected from the community around the
University of Ibadan campus and then
subsequently authenticated at the Department of
Botany University of Ibadan where specimen
voucher was also kept. The herbarium number is
UIH-22640.
2.2 Preparation of Plant Extracts
2.2.1 Methanol leaf extraction of
Vernoniaamygdalina
The fresh plant leaves were washed with waterto
remove dirt and then dried under shade. The
leaves were pulverized into powder form and 200g
of the powdered materials were separately
dissolved in 2 L of methanol under cold
maceration. After 72 hrs, the solution was filtered
using Whatman filter paper. The black material in
a slurry form was then placed in porcelain plate
and put on hot water at about 40ºC to removethe
remaining methanol in the extract.
2.2.2 MTT assay
Cells were cultured to confluence, trypsinized
and plated in 96-well plates for cell proliferation
assay. Twenty four hours after plating, cells were
treated with various concentrations (25-100
µg/mL) of the extract along with the control in
thepresence or absence of mitogens and cultured
for 24-48 hours to determine effects of treatment
on cell growth.
MTT assay is based on the ability of cell to
reduce MTT (3-(4, 5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-
diphenyltetrazolium bromide to purple formazan
in the mitochondria of living cells. The viable
cells (VSMC and HT 29) were seeded at a
density of 5×104
(100 𝜇L/well) in 96-well plates
and incubated in a humidified atmosphere of 5%
CO2 and 95% air at 37ºC for 24 h to form a cell
monolayer. MTT assay was performed over three
days. On day one, the cells were trypsinized.
After these have confluenced and on the second
day, the cells were treated with Vernonia
amygdalina, mitogens and Vernonia
amygdalina
+ mitogens and the final volume of the media
was adjusted to 100 µL and the incubation
continued. On day three, 20 µL of 5 mg/mL of
MTT was added to each of the 96 wells but the
well used, as controls have no cell. This wasthen
4. incubated for three and half hours at 37ºC in
culture hood. After this, the media was carefully
removed and 150 µL of MTT solvent was added
and covered with tin foil and cells agitated on
orbital shakers for 15 minutes. Thereafter, the
absorbance was read at 590 nm.
2.3 Statistics
Results are expressed as mean ± SD. Statistical
analysis was performed by one-way analysis of
variance (ANOVA), using Graph Pad Prism
version 6. The level of statistical significance
wasconsidered as α<0.05.
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1 Effects of the Extract of V. amygdalina
on VSMC
The result of this study showed that after 24
hours, the effect of the extract on the VSMC
alone and in the presence of the mitogens was
more of proliferation. For instance, the
200
𝜇g/mL of the extract alone and in the presence of
VEGF caused respectively 25 and 108.3% increase
in cell proliferation but in the case of the 800
𝜇g/mL alone and in the presence of VEGF the
result was 83.3 and 41.7% increase in cell
proliferation showing that in a way there is
reduction in cell proliferation at this dose in the
presence of VEGF. The result also showed that the
extract at 200 𝜇g/mL in the presence of ET-1
caused no cell proliferation whereas the 800
𝜇g/mL in the presence of ET-1 caused 33.3% cell
proliferation indicating that this mitogen also
interfere with the extract’s cell proliferation
activity. At 48 hrs, the 200 𝜇g/mL alone caused
73.3% increase in cell proliferation but in the
presence of VEGF and ET-1 it caused 86.7 and
80% increase in cell proliferation. With respect to
the 800 𝜇g/mL alone and in the presence of VEGF
and ET-1, there was increase in the proliferation
of the cells at 126.7, 153.3 and 100%, respectively
(Figs 1 and 2).
Studies with natural products involve biological
activity and pharmacological assays for the
screening of plant extracts, with subsequent
evaluation of the fractions and isolated
compounds were responsible for the activity
observed [23].
In this present study Vernonia amygdalina alone
and in the presence of VEGF resulted in a dose
dependent and time dependent increase in cell
proliferation which is similar to what Parenti et al.
[24] demonstrated that VSMC proliferation
induced by monocyte chemoattractant protein-1
was mediated by endogenous production of
VEGF-A.
Vasoactive agents such as norepinephrine (NE),
angiotensin II (ANG II), and endothelin-1 can
induce hypertrophy and proliferation of vascular
smooth muscle cell and thus are implicated in
pathogenesis of hypertension [25-28].
Endothelins (ETs) are a family of three peptides
(ET-1, ET-2, ET-3) that are implicated in the
physiological control of vascular smooth muscle
cell (VSMC) and myocardial contractility and
growth. ET-1 is vasoactive peptide that acts via
ET-A receptors coupling inducing vascular
smooth muscle cell contraction [29-31].
In this study at 24 hours, the 200 𝜇g/mL dose of
Vernonia amygdalina resulted in an inhibition of
the proliferation of VSMC in the presence of ET-
1, the higher dose (800 𝜇g/mL) however showed a
slight increase in cell proliferation. At 48 hours,
however, there was an increase in theproliferation
of the VSMCs in the presence of
5. both Vernonia amygdalina and Vernonia
amygdalina+ET-1. It can be deduced from this
observation that the proliferative effect of the
plant on VSMC is dependent on time and dose.
VSMCs have been viewed as directly
responsible for generating the atherosclerotic
plaque, via proliferation, migration from the
media and synthesis of matrix proteins [32].
Consequently huge efforts have been made to
inhibit the accumulation of these cells, which in
the case of stent stenosis have largely been
successful. However, reviews of atherosclerosis
have emphasized the advantageous protective
function of VSMCs in atherosclerosis [33]. This
isbased on findings that plaques in humans that
have undergone plaque rupture, and directly led
to heart attacks, show a paucity of VSMCs
compared with stable lesions [34]. Indeed
VSMCs are the only cells capable of
synthesizing components of the fibrous cap in
plaques (the structure that separates the blood
from the thrombogenic plaque interior), and
whose ruptureor erosion may trigger myocardial
infarction.
Apoptosis of VSMCs has been recognised in
atherosclerosis. In early lesions, apoptotic
frequencies are minimal but peak in advanced
plaques with both VSMCs and macrophages
showing features of apoptosis [35]. This
observation raised the possibility that VSMC
apoptosis could promote plaque rupture by
thinning the fibrous cap. Indeed, plaques from
patients with unstable symptoms show higher
levels of apoptosis than those with stable lesions
[36]. VSMC apoptosis has also been associated
with numerous other features within plaques
including inflammation, calcification,
thrombosis
[37] and both negative remodeling (vessel
shrinkage) [38,39] and aneurysm formation [40].
VSMC apoptosis causes release of IL-1 and up-
regulation of monocyte-chemoattractant protein
1 (MCP-1) [41] and interleukin (IL) 8, causing
infiltration of macrophages in vivo [42]. In vitro,
VSMC apoptosis can promote both thrombin
generation [43] and vascular calcification [44],
and apoptotic vascular cells are thrombogenic
both locally [45] and systemically [46].
Therefore the proliferation of VSMC by
Vernonia amygdalina at higher dose in this study
might be a useful therapeutic target to prevent
VSMC apoptosis in stable and unstable
atherosclerosis.
3.2 Effects of the Extract of V. amygdalina
on HT 29 Cell Line
In the case of HT 29 cytotoxic study, at 24 hrs,
the 700 𝜇g/mL concentration caused the greatest
cytotoxicity at 61.8% cell inhibition and this was
followed by the 400 𝜇g/mL concentration at
60.5% decrease in proliferation. The 200 𝜇g/mL
concentration of the extract only caused 52.6%
inhibition of the HT 29 cell line. At 48 hrs time
point, the 200 𝜇g/mL concentration caused 50%
inhibition followed by that of 400 𝜇g/mL causing
inhibition at 37.5% while the 700 𝜇g/mL caused
12.5% cell inhibition. At 72 hrs, the 200 𝜇g/mL
concentration caused the greatest cytotoxic
effect at 56.1% cell inhibition and this is
followed by 400 and 700 𝜇g/mL at 51.2 and
31.7%, respectively. It is to be noted that the
antiproliferative effect of the extract increases
with time with the 200 𝜇g/mL concentration
showing some form of consistency with time
(Figs. 3 and 5).
It has been known that plants have a long history
of use in the treatment of cancer [47] and herbal
medicines have a vital role in the prevention and
treatment of cancer [48]. The use of plant derived
natural compounds as part of herbal preparations
and alternative sources of drugs continues to play
major roles in the general wellness of people all
over the world [47,49]. Agents capable
4. CONCLUSION
The present data demonstrate that Vernonia
amygdalina has protective and proliferative
effects on VSMC at higher concentration and
may inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells
possibly through apoptosis. The anticancer
property of the plant may be attributable to its
high phenol content. We can conclude that
Vernonia amygdalina extract has a good potential
to be used as a new cancer therapeutic agent.
