Abstract

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Developing new therapeutic strategies that are effective, safe, and specific for lung cancer cells is a priority in cancer research. This study investigates the cytotoxic and antioxidant effects of a combination of sorafenib and Maclura pomifera extract, known as Osage orange, in A549 human lung cancer cell lines. Sorafenib, a multikinase inhibitor, has shown promising results in the treatment of various types of cancer. However, its therapeutic potential remains limited due to side effects and resistance developed by cancer cells. Natural extracts, especially those obtained from plants such as Osage orange, show significant antioxidant properties and may improve the efficacy and reduce the toxicity of conventional chemotherapy drugs. A549 human lung cancer cell lines were treated with various concentrations of sorafenib, Osage orange extract, and their combination. Cell viability was evaluated by MTT assay, while the levels of total oxidant status (TOS) and total antioxidant status (TAS) were measured. The combination of sorafenib and Osage orange extract demonstrated a significant decrease in cell viability compared to sorafenib treatment alone. In addition, the combination treatment significantly reduced total oxidant levels, indicating increased antioxidant activity. The findings of this study demonstrate that the combination of sorafenib and Osage orange extract exhibits potent cytotoxic and antioxidant effects in A549 human lung cancer cell lines. This combination therapy has the potential to be a more effective and safer alternative in the treatment of lung cancer, but further in vivo studies and clinical trials are required.

Özet

Akciğer kanseri, dünya genelinde kansere bağlı ölümlerin önde gelen nedenidir. Özellikle akciğer kanseri hücrelerine özgü, etkili ve güvenli yeni terapötik stratejilerin geliştirilmesi kanser araştırmalarında bir önceliktir. Bu çalışma, A549 insan akciğer kanseri hücre hatlarında sorafenib ve Yalancı portakal olarak bilinen Maclura pomifera ekstresi kombinasyonunun sitotoksik ve antioksidan etkilerini araştırmaktadır. Bir multikinaz inhibitörü olan sorafenib, çeşitli kanser türlerinin tedavisinde umut verici sonuçlar göstermiştir. Ancak, kanser hücreleri tarafından geliştirilen direnç ve yan etkiler nedeniyle terapötik potansiyeli sınırlı kalmaktadır. Özellikle Yalancı portakal gibi bitkilerden elde edilen doğal özler, önemli antioksidan özellik gösterir ve geleneksel kemoterapi ilaçlarının etkinliğini artırıp toksisitesini azaltabilir. A549 insan akciğer kanseri hücre hatları sorafenib, Yalancı portakal ekstresi ve bunların kombinasyonunun çeşitli konsantrasyonları ile muamele edilmiştir. Hücre canlılığı MTT testi ile değerlendirilirken, toplam oksidan durumu (TOS) ve toplam antioksidan durumu (TAS) seviyeleri ölçülmüştür. Sorafenib ve Yalancı portakal ekstresi kombinasyonu, tek başına sorafenib tedavisine kıyasla hücre canlılığında önemli bir azalma göstermiştir. Ayrıca, kombinasyon tedavisi toplam oksidan seviyelerinde önemli bir düşüşe yol açarak antioksidan aktivitenin arttığını göstermiştir. Bu çalışmanın bulguları, sorafenib ve Yalancı portakal ekstresi kombinasyonunun A549 insan akciğer kanseri hücre hatlarında güçlü sitotoksik ve antioksidan etkiler sergilediğini göstermektedir. Bu kombinasyon tedavisi, akciğer kanseri tedavisinde daha etkili ve daha güvenli bir alternatif olma potansiyeline sahiptir ve daha ileri in vivo çalışmalar ve klinik denemeler gerektirmektedir.
