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. |
