Abstract
In Saudi Arabia, breast cancer is the second-most frequently identified common malignant cause of death for women. The present investigation was carried out to assess the impact of different Soxhlet solvent extracts of Annona muricata on apoptosis induction in breast cancer cells. Cell survival was estimated by post-incubation of cells with the extract for 24 h using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium (MTT) assay. Acridine orange (AO)/propidium iodide (PI) and 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining were employed to study cell apoptosis. qRT-PCR was also employed to assess apoptotic genes’ expression, such as BAX and P53 genes. The results of the MTT assay showed that the chloroform extract inhibited the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells dose-dependently. AO/PI and DAPI staining showed chromatin condensation and fragmentation. In treated cells, P53 expression significantly increased, correlated with the increase in BAX activity. The findings suggest that apoptosis may have been triggered post-chloroform extract treatment. Combining chloroform extract of A. muricata and doxorubicin at a 1:1 ratio increased the IC50 value (292.3 µg/mL). The chloroform extract of A. muricata contained a variety of substances, including diethyl carbonate (7.38%), 4-acetoxy-2,11-dodecadiene (58.13%), and hexadecanoic acid (34.48%), according to the results of the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. As a result, future research on the A. muricata chloroform extract as a potential anticancer drug could be suggested.
1 Introduction
There were 10 million cancer-related deaths worldwide in 2020, making it the second most cause worldwide. In 2020, the cancer types that led to the highest number of fatalities were those affecting the breast, stomach, rectum, colon, lungs, and liver. Simultaneously, the cancer diagnoses that were most prevalent in 2020 encompassed breast, stomach, lungs, prostate, colon, rectum, and skin (WHO, https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/cancer).
Technological advancements and understanding of neoplastic disease provide opportunities to lower the death rate but cancer-related deaths are continuously rising [1]. The available cancer treatments are complex and have adverse side effects. Thus, searching for novel medication options with low toxicity toward normal cells continues. Secondary metabolites from medicinal plants are seen as a promising resource for exploring new drug options for diseases, including cancer. This is due to their unique structures, the broad range of their chemical natures, and their generally low toxicity levels [2]. The therapeutic benefits of natural products used for medicinal purposes by humans date back to ancient civilizations [3]. Lack of success in treating conditions such as mental disorders, AIDS, hepatitis, diabetes, cancer, and allergies has prompted researchers to look for novel natural substances that can be utilized as drugs [4,5]. Medicinal plants contain many phytocompounds used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Medicinal plants have a wide range of bioactive compounds with several biological activities [6].
Annona muricata L., a tree belonging to the Annonaceae family, is a traditional medicinal plant distributed and cultivated in subtropical and tropical climates. A. muricata is popularly consumed in India, Malaysia, South America, and tropical Africa for its ethnomedicinal values. In addition to ethnomedicinal uses, the fruits are used to manufacture beverages, candy, ice creams, shakes, and syrups [7,8,9]. The plant is reported to have various biological activities such as antiarthritic, anticancer, anticonvulsant, wound healing, molluscicidal, gastroprotective, insecticidal, bilirubin-lowering, hepatoprotective, antiplasmodial, antihypertensive, antiparasitic, antinociceptive, antioxidant, antidiabetic, hypolipidemic, and anti-inflammatory activities [9]. Phytochemical tests on A. muricata revealed the presence of various secondary metabolites, including alkaloids [10], flavonols [11], phenolics [12], cyclopeptides, essential oils, and annonaceous acetogenin compounds [13].
This study investigated the antiproliferative, apoptosis, and GC-MS analyses of the A. muricata bioactive extract.
2 Materials and methods
2.1 Collection of plant
A. muricata was acquired from a market located in Riyadh, King Saudi Arabia (KSA). It was classified by a taxonomist at KSA, Department of Botany, and a voucher specimen (KSU-BRC-052) was deposited at the same department. The seeds were separated from the fruit and then were kept for drying in an oven at 60°C. The dried seed (14.46 g) and fruit (45 g) were ground using a commercial grinder (Stardust, Japan). The dry powder samples were extracted using the Soxhlet extractor.
2.2 Soxhlet extraction
A thimble was filled with the dried plant powder, and 500 mL of n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and methanol were employed in that order. The extraction was allowed to reflux for 18 h at 70°C. After each extraction cycle, the extracted plants were concentrated, weighed, and the solvent was rotary evaporated at 45°C. The stock solution was made by dissolving the extract in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and keeping it at −20°C. DMSO was used to dilute the stock solution to prepare extracts of varying strengths.
2.3 Source of cell lines
The human breast carcinoma (MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7) cell lines and human lung carcinoma (A-549) cell lines used in this study were sourced from the German Cell Cultures Collection (DSMZ), whereas the normal human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were provided by the Japanese Collection of Research Bioresources (JCRB Cell Bank).
2.4 Antiproliferative activity
Cytotoxic activity of A. muricata seed and fruit extracts was evaluated using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium (MTT) assay on MCF7, MDA-MDA-MB-231, A549, and HUVECs. Basically, cells were seeded into 24-well culture plates (NIST, China) at a density of 50,000 cells/well and incubated for 24 h at 37°C with 5% CO2. Plant extracts were applied to the cells at various doses (200, 140, 100, 50, and 20 µg/mL). As a negative control, the final row of wells was treated with DMSO (0.1%). Cells were also exposed to doxorubicin (0.1–10 g/mL) as a positive control. Following a 24 h incubation period, the MTT reagent (5 mg/mL) was introduced and the mixtures were incubated again for 2 h. The resulting formazan was dissolved in DMSO (1,000 μL). The absorbance of formazan was then measured at 570 nm utilizing an automated microplate reader (ChroMate, England). Each experiment was conducted in triplicate. Cell viability (%) was determined by comparing the absorbance between the experimental samples and the negative control.
2.5 Morphological alterations
We evaluated morphological alterations of MDA-MB231 with and without extracts. As previously noted, the cells were grown and treated with a 2 × IC50 dose. The control group of cells received the DMSO treatment. Cells were examined at 200× after receiving the extract for 24 h using a phase-contrast microscope (EVOS, USA).
2.6 4′,6-Diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining
DAPI (Thermo Fisher Scientific) staining was used to determine cell nuclear morphology changes. At the appropriate confluence, cells were treated with extracts (2 × IC50). The cells were washed with PBS, fixed in cold ethanol, stained with DAPI (1.0 µg/mL), and left to sit at 37°C for 30 min. Finally, the cells were washed with PBS before they were examined using fluorescence microscopy at 200× magnification.
2.7 Staining with acridine orange and ethidium bromide (AO/EB)
Cells were grown, as reported in the previous section. Through dual AO/EB fluorescence labeling, changes in the cell shape were evaluated (Abutaha [14]). Cells were exposed to extracts at 2 × IC50 concentrations for 24 h before being stained for 5 min with a 1 µL/mL AO/EB combination that contained 5 µg/mL EB and 5 µg/mL AO (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). Stained cells were observed under a fluorescence microscope at 200× magnification.
2.8 Isolation of RNA, cDNA synthesis, and qRT-PCR
The total RNA was extracted and reverse-transcribed using high-capacity cDNA reverse transcriptase kits (Applied Biosystems, United States) with an oligo-d(T) primer under standard conditions. qRT-PCR amplification was carried out using a Prime Q real-time PCR machine (Techine), and 2.5 μL of the purified cDNA product, 0.5 μL of sense primer (10 pmol/mL), 0.5 μL of antisense primer (10 pmol/mL) (Table 1), and 10 μL of SYBR Green I (GoTaq® qPCR; Promega). GAPDH served as an internal reference gene, and the relative change was calculated by relative quantification, by the 2−ΔΔCt method.

2.9 Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
The extracts’ constituents were examined by GC-MS analysis (Agilent Technologies, USA) in the College of Pharmacy in Riyadh, KSA, using a Perkin Elmer Clarus 600 gas chromatograph linked to a mass spectrometer. The following temperature program was used to inject aliquots of the extracts, each containing 1 L, onto the Elite 5MS capillary column, which has a 30 m length, 0.25 L film thickness, and 0.25 L internal diameter. The GC-MS system began with an initial oven temperature of 40°C and maintained it for 2 min before increasing the temperature to 200°C at a rate of 5°C/min and holding it for another 2 min. The temperature was increased from 200 to 300°C and maintained for 2 min. At 280°C, the injector temperature was maintained. The temperature at the source was 220°C, whereas the temperature at the interface was 240°C. Helium was also utilized as the mobile phase, flowing at a rate of 1.0 mL/min. By scanning between 40 and 600 m/z, mass spectral detection was carried out in the electron ionization mode. The process of identifying phytochemicals was carried out by correlating their mass spectra with the reference database from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST, 2004).
2.10 Statistical analysis
SPSS 26.0 software (IBM) was employed to perform the statistical analyses, and the obtained results represent mean ± standard error of three different assays. Differences were calculated using a one-way ANOVA test. P values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
3 Results
3.1 Antiproliferative activity
The cytotoxic activity of extracts was tested against MCF7, MDA-MB-231, A549, and HUVECs (Figures 1–3). The results revealed that only the chloroform fruit extract of A. muricata (AF CHCl3) was significantly effective compared to other extracts (Figure 1). The other extracts were viewed as not cytotoxic on the cell lines under investigation. Therefore, all upcoming studies were conducted to learn more about the therapeutic potential of the A. muricata fruit extract. According to the screening results, the AF CHCl3 showed the best cytotoxic effect on MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7, with an IC50 (inhibitory dose reduced cell growth by 50%) value of 47.4 and 48.4 µg/mL, respectively. The extracts were also tested using HUVECs. The results showed that the HUVECs’ toxicity was above 100 µg/mL (Figure 1).

Doxorubicin is a standard drug used for cancer treatment. In the present study, this drug was used as a positive control. Doxorubicin showed that the drug had a greater impact on MDA-MB231 cells and produced IC50 values of 9.2 µg/mL. Combining doxorubicin and the AF CHCl3 extract resulted in an IC50 value of 292.3 µg/mL, indicating the antagonistic potential of the drug and the extract.
3.2 Morphological changes
Morphological changes in MDA-MB231 cells were detected post-incubation with the AF CHCl3 extract (Figure 2). Exposure of cells to the AF CHCl3 extract showed apoptotic features such as loss of contact with adjacent cells, rounding, and shrinkage of cells. In contrast, control cells retained their original morphology and remained adhered to the tissue culturing plates.
3.3 Staining with DAPI
Regarding DAPI staining results, the chloroform extract of the A. muricata fruit (AF CHCl3) resulted in condensed nuclei and fragmented DNA, confirming that the cells underwent apoptosis (Figure 2). In the control group, the stained nuclei of MDA-MB231 cells were homogeneous and maintained a round shape.
3.4 Staining with AO/EB
To demonstrate that apoptosis was primarily responsible for the cytotoxicity shown in MDA-MB23, AO/EB staining was carried out on cells treated with the AF CHCl3 extract. This staining technique marked cells differentially depending on the state of apoptosis. Early-stage apoptotic cells display fragmented green nuclei but late-stage apoptotic cells show uneven and dense orange EB nucleus staining (Liu et al., [15]). The AO/EB fluorescence staining also revealed other morphological alterations. Comparing the treated cells to the control cells, it was clear that the number of apoptotic cells was high. The treated cells displayed DNA fragmentation, nuclear condensation, apoptotic body formation, and other hallmarks of the process (Figure 3).
3.5 Gene expression
The transcriptional level of pro-apoptotic genes P53 and BAX [16] was investigated in MDA-MB231 cells after being incubated with the AF CHCl3 extract for 24 h compared to control cells. We observed that the P53 RNA expression remained unchanged at 2.5 × IC50 concentration. However, a significant increase (Figure 4) was recorded in the following concentrations: 5 × IC50 and 10 × IC50 by 5.5- and 11-fold, respectively. Additionally, the BAX expression was slightly elevated in cells treated with 2.5 × IC50 of the extract concentration and significantly increased by 10-fold with 5 × IC50 and 9-fold with 10 × IC50 compared to control cells (Figure 5).

3.6 Composition analysis of the AP CHCl3 extract
Figure 6 and Table 2 display the chromatogram and the identified phytochemicals, respectively. Three different substances were found in the AF CHCl3 extract: diethyl carbonate (7.38%), 4-acetoxy-2,11-dodecadiene (58.13%), and hexadecanoic acid (34.48%).

4 Discussion
This study intended to assess the anticancer potential of the A. muricata extract against different cancer cells. Only the AF CHCl3 extract inhibited the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 (47.4 µg/mL) and MCF-7 (48.4 µg/mL) cells dose-dependently. Apoptosis was produced by the AF CHCl3 extract, as demonstrated by DAPI and AO/EB staining. Moreover, it induced P53 and Bax gene expression.
The reported IC50 values for various solvent extracts against MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells show a vast disparity, ranging from 5.3 to 390.2 g/mL [17,18]. Because the plant extract contains a variety of various bioactive components resulting from seasonal variations, soil, climate, etc., the varied potencies of the A. muricata extract are likely caused by batch variation, which may result in some extract batches having more activity than others. The current study confirms that A. muricata extract has a growth-inhibitory effect on MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells, despite the conflicting IC50 values for the extract reported in earlier research. The antiproliferative effect of the extract was found to be selective on breast cancer cell lines with low cytotoxic effects on normal HUVECs (IC50 > 300). This result is similar to the result reported by Hadisaputri et al. [17] on murine mesenchymal stem cells and by Younes et al. [18] on normal kidney cells CV1.
It has been shown that the AF CHCl3 extract-treated cancer cells significantly increase p53 and BAX gene expression by 10- and 11-fold, respectively.
P53 suppresses the Bcl-2 family and, as a result, pro-apoptotic proteins (Bak and Bax) are activated, increasing the permeability of the mitochondrial membrane [19]. However, in most cancer cells, p53 is ubiquitinated and subsequently either degraded or mutated to become functionally dysfunctional in most cancer cells [20]. It has been reported that p53 was significantly increased in different cancer cells (MCF7, MB MDA231, HeLa, and HL60) at the gene and protein levels. The upregulation of p53 was further substantiated by the observed increase in Bax in cancer cell lines exposed to various solvent extracts [21,22]. These results support earlier research on cytotoxicity and cell morphology changes and demonstrate that p53 activation caused by plant extracts induces apoptosis. As a result, activating p53 in cancer cells is one cancer therapy strategy that can be suggested. Bioactive natural compounds are reported to initiate p53 in cancer cells [23,24].
Natural anticancer remedies are popular because they are known to be efficient and have few adverse effects [25]. Hence, despite the ongoing need for research on anticancer substances derived from botanical products, it is important to highlight the significance of A. muricata.
Combination therapy is gaining popularity due to its significant improvement in patient survival [26]. Combining two or more drugs is a rational approach to increase cell killing in cancer, considering that cancer is caused by multiple mutations. Thus, doxorubicin and A. muricata CHCl3 extract were mixed to see if they could enhance the effect on cancer cells. Doxorubicin exerts its impact by inhibiting topoisomerase II and DNA synthesis activity [27], ultimately leading to the cells’ death. However, it is linked to negative side effects such as infection, higher risk of bleeding, appetite loss, heart failure, and cardiac damage. This study showed an antagonistic effect when the AF CHCl3 extract was combined with doxorubicin in MDA-MB-231 cells. The results are consistent with other studies showing that doxorubicin and the aqueous extract of A. muricata leaves had antagonistic effects on the T47D and MCF7 cancer cell lines [28]. Our results, however, differ from previous studies that claimed doxorubicin and soursop had a synergistic effect on 4T1 breast cancer cells [29]. This discrepancy could potentially be attributed to variations in tumor types or due to both drugs targeting the same receptor, causing competitive inhibition [30,31].
Studies conducted in vivo on Wistar albino rats with 1,2-dimethyl hydrazine-induced colon cancer revealed significant apoptosis induction when they were treated with an ethanolic leaf extract of A. muricata (at a dosage of 300 mg/kg). This was marked by the upregulation of caspase-3 [32]. Furthermore, the A. muricata leaf extract, administered at a dose of 400 mg/kg, was evaluated for its potential to inhibit cell proliferation and prevent cancer in two mouse models. These models included benzo[a]pyrene-induced lung carcinoma and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma. The findings indicated that the leaf extract markedly reduced lung cancer in the tested mice. Moreover, in the Ehrlich ascites carcinoma model, the leaf extract diminished the count of viable cells and normalized various hematological parameters [33].
In this study, GC-MS analysis was carried out on the AF CHCl3 extract. The GC-MS study identified three compounds in the AF CHCl3 extract, as depicted in Figure 6 and Table 1. Seasons, phases of plant development, and numerous environmental conditions can all affect the phytochemical content of a plant. These elements could prevent the active compound(s) from being present. Additionally, photodegradation, oxidation, hydrolysis, degradation, and thermal instability may result in solubility changes and activity loss of the compound(s).
Consequently, the ideal way to solve this problem is to develop an extract fingerprint that can be used to track the stability, production, and similarity of the extract when recollection occurs. Such quality control is a significant problem in herbal medicine development. The fingerprinting approach has gained widespread acceptance for monitoring and assessing the quality of herbal extracts [32]. Natural products can be fingerprinted using various techniques, including high-performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and GC-MS.
Houttuynia cordata was fingerprinted using GC-MS. Eggadi et al. discovered 15 compounds that might be utilized as indicators to recognize and assess the consistency in 40 factories and batches [32]. Palá et al. examined the volatile compounds of Meum athamanticum to generate a profile of 46 compounds to track geographic and seasonal chemical changes [34].
To conclude, the findings of this study indicate that the chloroform extract of A. muricata inhibits the growth of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells by inducing apoptosis, as supported by fluorescence microscopy and RT-PCR analysis. The GC-MS analysis identified diethyl carbonate, 4-acetoxy-2,11-dodecadiene, and hexadecanoic acid as potential contributors to the anticancer properties of the extract. However, it should be noted that other unidentified compounds in the extract may also play a role in its anticancer effects. Further research is needed to identify additional bioactive compounds with potential anticancer effects and evaluate their efficacy. Furthermore, conducting in vivo studies will provide a better understanding of the chloroform extract’s anticancer effects and mechanisms of action.
