Ethanol extracts of Stachys glutinosa L. (Lamiaceae) were investigated for antioxidative properties, as well as antiproliferative action on various cell lines. The antioxidant activities were investigated by ABTS (2,2′-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) assay, DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, β-carotene/linoleic acid assay, scavenging of hydrogen peroxide (horseradish peroxidase test), superoxide anion scavenging, and hypochlorous acid scavenging (taurine test). The antioxidant activity was reported as IC50 and reveals antioxidant effects. Antiproliferative effects were measured in vitro on three cell lines: HepG2 (human hepatocarcinoma), MCF7 (breast human adenocarcinoma) and C2C12 (mouse myoblast) cell lines by MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay. The ethanol extract induced variations in cell viability on all cell lines tested. At 200 μg/mL, the effects on cell viability were − 23%, − 27% and − 37%, respectively, for C2C12, MCF7 and HepG2.

Abstract

Ethanol extracts of Stachys glutinosa L. (Lamiaceae) were investigated for antioxidative properties, as well as antiproliferative action on various cell lines. The antioxidant activities were investigated by ABTS (2,2′-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) assay, DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging, β-carotene/linoleic acid assay, scavenging of hydrogen peroxide (horseradish peroxidase test), superoxide anion scavenging, and hypochlorous acid scavenging (taurine test). The antioxidant activity was reported as IC50 and reveals antioxidant effects. Antiproliferative effects were measured in vitro on three cell lines: HepG2 (human hepatocarcinoma), MCF7 (breast human adenocarcinoma) and C2C12 (mouse myoblast) cell lines by MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay. The ethanol extract induced variations in cell viability on all cell lines tested. At 200 μg/mL, the effects on cell viability were − 23%, − 27% and − 37%, respectively, for C2C12, MCF7 and HepG2.
