씀바귀의 항돌연변이성 및 암세포 성장억제효과

초록

Ixiris dentate was used to extract the natural compounds with methanol and then the extracts were further fractionated using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and aqueous fraction. The methanol extract of Ixeris dentate had strong antimutagenic effect in Ames mutagenicity test. Among the extracts fractioned from the methanol extract, the butanol fraction exhibited the greatest antimutagenic effect suppressing the mutagenicity of Salmonella typhimurium TA100 with inhibition rate of 88.93%. Cancer cell lines include human lung carcinoma(A549), human breast adenpcarcinoma(MCF-7) and human hepatocellular carcinoma(Hep3B). Hexane fraction showed the strongest effect against A549, MCF-7 and Hep3B at the same concentration compared to those of other fractions.
