    Abstract Abstract Background The present study was designed to examine the role of isoflavone genistein (GS) on bone formation, regulating oxidative stress and cell cycle in primary osteoblasts, as well as attenuation of osteoclast formation. Methods Primary calvaria osteoblasts were isolated from 2 to 3 days old neonatal rat pups (n = 6–8) of Sprague Dawley rats. Osteoblasts were incubated with varying concentrations of GS and different assays viz. cell proliferation, differentiation, calcium deposition, cell cycle progression, antioxidant ability, and osteogenic gene expression were performed. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and immunolocalization of cathepsin K protein were assessed in bone marrow-derived osteoclasts. Results Results revealed that GS markedly induced cell growth and osteoblast differentiation depending upon dose. The fluorescent dye DCFH-DA staining data proved the antioxidant ability of GS, which reduced the H2O2- induced intracellular oxidative stress in osteoblasts. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that GS treatment upregulated the expression of osteoblastic genes of Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), bone morphogenetic proteins 2 (BMP2), and osteocalcin. Immunolocalization of BMP2 also indicated the osteogenic efficacy of GS. Furthermore, TRAP staining and cathepsin K expression depicted that GS inhibited multinucleated osteoclasts formation. Conclusions In conclusion, GS isoflavone might impart protective effects against oxidative stress-induced bone loss and thus, could maintain skeletal growth.

    Abstract Good nutrition plays a crucial role in maintaining a balanced lifestyle. The beneficial effects of nutrition have been found to counteract nutritional disturbances with the expanded use of nutraceuticals to treat and manage cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and other developmental defects over the last decade. Flavonoids are found abundantly in plant-derived foods such as fruits, vegetables, tea, cocoa, and wine. Fruits and vegetables contain phytochemicals like flavonoids, phenolics, alkaloids, saponins, and terpenoids. Flavonoids can act as anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anti-microbial (antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral) antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-diarrheal agents. Flavonoids are also reported to upregulate apoptotic activity in several cancers such as hepatic, pancreatic, breast, esophageal, and colon. Myricetin is a flavonol which is naturally present in fruits and vegetables and has shown possible nutraceutical value. Myricetin has been portrayed as a potent nutraceutical that may protect against cancer. The focus of the present review is to present an updated account of studies demonstrating the anticancer potential of myricetin and the molecular mechanisms involved therein. A better understanding of the molecular mechanism(s) underlying its anticancer activity would eventually help in its development as a novel anticancer nutraceutical having minimal side effects.

    Abstract Moringa oleifera is an excellent source of phenolics and flavonoids comprise various pharmacological activities. The fourth widespread leading cause of the patients' death is liver cancer. This study was formulated to perform the antiproliferative activity of Moringa oleifera fruit (MOF) extract on human liver cancer HepG2 cells and computational validation of cell death. HepG2 cell line was treated with 25, 50, 75, 100, and 200 µg/ml of MOF extract for 48 hr, and antiproliferative activity was analyzed using MTT assay, nuclear condensation, annexin V-FITC/PI double stain, ROS generation, and apoptosis executioner enzyme caspase-3. MOF extract reduced the cell viability significantly (p ˂ .05) by increasing cellular apoptosis which was confirmed by annexin V-FITC/PI staining assay. In addition, MOF stimulated intracellular ROS production and subsequently induced caspase-3 activity depending upon dose. In silico analysis revealed the good binding interaction between amino acid residues of caspase-3 (PDB ID: 1GFW) protein and selected active constituents of MOF. PASS analyses of the phytoconstituents showed no violation of Lipinski's rule of five. Analysis of drug-likeness and toxicity measurement exhibited drug-like candidates with no predicted toxicity. In conclusion, this study showed the potential anticancer activity of MOF extract which may be valuable source for anticancer drug development. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Moringa oleifera fruit extract induced the anti-proliferative activity against human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells through ROS-mediated apoptosis and activation of caspase-3 enzyme. Structure-based virtual screening study between bioactive components of Moringa oleifera fruits and apoptosis executioner caspase-3 enzyme has validated the anti-proliferative activity of Moringa oleifera fruit extract. Interestingly, active phytoconstituents of Moringa oleifera fruit exhibited drug-like candidates with no predicted toxicity. Thus, Moringa oleifera fruit could be used as valuable source for anticancer drug development against human liver cancer with relatively non-toxic to healthy cells.

    Abstract Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are used immensely in technology and medicine, but very less is known about toxicity mechanism to human epidermal cells. The objective of this study was to evaluate possible anticancer properties of ZnO-NPs on human epidermoid carcinoma cells using MTT assay, measurement of reactive oxygen species, DNA fragmentation, and nuclear condensation. ZnO-NPs were synthesized by sol-gel method using zinc acetate dihydrate, ethylene glycol, and 2-propyl alcohol. Numerous characterization techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering spectroscopy were used to confirm synthesis, purity, optical, and surface characteristics, size, shape, and distribution of ZnO-NPs. Our finding showed that ZnO-NPs considerably decreased cell viability of human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells with a parallel increase in nuclear condensation and DNA fragmentation in a dose dependent manner. Moreover, real time PCR expression study showed that treatment of human epidermoid carcinoma cells with ZnO-NPs trigger increased expression of tumor suppressor gene p53, bax, and caspase-3 while downregulate antiapoptotic gene bcl-2. Thus ZnO-NPs induce apoptosis in A431 cells through DNA degradation and generation of reactive oxygen species via p53, bax/bcl-2, and caspase pathways.
