Abstract :
Our study examined for the inhibitory effect of ethanolic extract of Eleagnus Conferta Roxb leaves on TNF –α induced NF- kB nuclear translocation in lung cancer A549 cell line using flow cytometry. Apoptosis also studied to know about the antiproliferative and anticancer effects. However, our results revealed in apoptosis, Elaeagnus conferta Roxb leaves showed (33.54%) increased in proportion of cells. In the study of pre-treatment of A549 cells with Elaeagnus conferta Roxb leaves followed by TNF- α caused the increased proportion of cells (20.78%) at apoptosis induced cell death, which was statistically significant (p< 0.001). The untreated A549 cells had minimal NF-kB expression (0.25± 0.01%). However, the approach of A549 cells with Elaeagnus conferta Roxb had induced NF-kB production many fold (11.50± 1.05%). Therefore, we conclude our study was proved the impact of Elaeagnus conferta Roxb leaves inhibit the cellular growth of NSCLC-A549 cell line and induces apoptosis. Hence, from our findings, we proved this plant has anticancer activity, further feasibly taken for drug formulation.
