Zusammenfassung:The O. natrix belongs to the family Fabaceae and is distributed in Jordan. Different species of the family Fabaceae contain chemical compounds that may have potential antiproliferative, antidiabetic, and anti-Alzheimer’s disease. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was applied to analyse the phenolic compounds found in O. natrix methanolic extract. Using the MTT assay, the antiproliferative action was studied. The enzymes α-glucosidase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibition assays were used to study the antidiabetic and anti-Alzheimer’s disease actions, respectively, of methanolic extract of O. natrix . Eleven phenolics and seven flavonoids were identified in the methanolic extract of O. natrix by HPLC. The highest phenolics and flavonoids were gallic acid (1.25 mg/100 g dry weight) and rutin (1.44 mg/100 g dry weight), respectively. The most cancer cell lines influenced by the extract of O. natrix were PC-3 (IC 50 = 55 ± 2 µg/mL) and HepG-2 (IC 50 = 68 ± 2 µg/mL) compared to positive control cisplatin. However, the cancer cell lines CaCo-2, MCF-7, and HeLa showed IC 50 values of 109 ± 2 µg/mL, 123 ± 2 µg/mL, and 79 ± 1 µg/mL, respectively, related to cisplatin. The O. natrix extract inhibited the α-glucosidase enzyme and butyrylcholinesterase enzyme by 84% and 86%, respectively compared to positive controls acarbose and rivastigmine. The O. natrix may possess antiproliferative effects against prostate cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. It also may have antidiabetic and anti-Alzheimer’s disease effects.
