Cytotoxic Activities of Red Algae Collected from Jeju Island Against Four Tumor Cells Lines

Methanolic and aqueous extracts of 26 red algae species collected from Jeju Island coast were prepared at a high (70℃) and a room temperature (20℃) and were examined for their cytotoxic activity against 4 tumor cell lines: U-937 (human monoblastoid leukemia cell line), HL-60 (human promyelocytic leu...

Zusammenfassung:Methanolic and aqueous extracts of 26 red algae species collected from Jeju Island coast were prepared at a high (70℃) and a room temperature (20℃) and were examined for their cytotoxic activity against 4 tumor cell lines: U-937 (human monoblastoid leukemia cell line), HL-60 (human promyelocytic leukemia cell line), B-16 (murine melanoma cell line) and HeLa (woman cervical carcinoma cell line). 20℃ methanolic extract of Polysiphonia japonica showed cytotoxic activity of over 50% against U-937, HL-60 and B-16 cells.
