Abstract
Aging, a natural and inevitable physiological process, is the primary risk factor for all age-related diseases; it severely threatens the health of individuals and places a heavy burden on the public health-care system. Thus, strategies to extend the lifespan and prevent and treat age-related diseases have been gaining increasing scientific interest. Anthocyanins (ACNs) are a subclass of flavonoids widely distributed in fruits and vegetables. Growing evidence suggests that ACNs delay aging and relieve age-related diseases. However, owing to the low bioavailability of ACNs, their gut metabolites have been proposed to play a critical role in mediating health benefits. In this review, we introduce the biological fate of ACNs after consumption and highlight ACNs metabolites (phenolic acids) from intestinal microorganisms. Additionally, ACNs and gut metabolites exhibit outstanding anti-aging ability in Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, and mouse models, probably associated with increasing antioxidation, anti-inflammation, protein homeostasis, antiglycation, mitochondrial function, and inhibition of insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS). ACNs and gut metabolites have great application prospects as functional foods and drugs to delay aging and manage age-related diseases. Further investigation should focus on the interaction between ACNs and gut microbiota, including clarifying the complex metabolic pathway and maximizing the health effects of ACNs.

P.Beauv) Seeds Exhibited Antioxidant Activity and Reduced the Viability of Breast Cancer Cells In Vitro by Inducing DNA Fragmentation and Promoting Cell Cycle Arrest. Anticancer Agents Med Chem 2022; 22:2477-2493. [PMID: 35168527 DOI: 10.2174/1871520622666220215122141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Revised: 12/02/2021] [Accepted: 12/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The demand for millet-based diets has increased significantly in recent years due to their beneficial effects on human health. Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica (L.) P.Beauv, previously known as Panicum italicum L., referred as FTM in this manuscript) seeds have been not only used as astringent and diuretic agents, but they are also used to treat dyspepsia and rheumatism. Recent studies have shown that solvent extracts from FTM seeds exhibited antioxidant and antiinflammatory activities. However, the nature and antiproliferative potential of phytochemical constituents of solvent extracts are not much explored. OBJECTIVES Major objectives of this study are to generate and characterize the phytochemical-rich fractions from Foxtail millet seeds, test the antioxidant activity and antiproliferative potential against cell lines representing carcinomas of the breast, and determine the mechanism(s) of cell growth inhibition. METHODS Phytochemical-rich fractions were generated by extracting the seeds using 70% ethanol (FTM-FP) and 10% alkali (FTM-BP). Antioxidant potential was determined by ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay and DPPH radical scavenging activity assays. The antiproliferative potential was determined using sulforhodamine-B assay. The impact on cell cycle and DNA fragmentation was analyzed by staining the cells with DAPI followed by analyzing the stained cells using NC-3000. RESULTS Analysis of the results showed the presence of phenolics and flavonoids in the FTM-FP and FTM-BP fractions. Both fractions exhibited antiproliferative potential against breast cancer cell lines. Mechanistically, both fractions induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and increased the fragmentation of DNA, which lead to the accumulation of cells in the Sub-G1 phase. CONCLUSION In summary, results of this study demonstrated the potential of foxtail millet phytochemical fractions for retarding the proliferative potential of breast cancer cells.
