EFFECT OF EXTRACTS OF CABBAGE (BRASSICA OLERACEA L.) ON TUMOR CELL LINE М HELА
White cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.) used in the treatment of diseases such as gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer, inflammation of the mucous membranes of the skin, and also cancer of the stomach and intestines.The studies were aimed at assessing the action of plant extracts of regenerated plants of white cabbage (Brassica oleracea L.), obtained in the culture in vitro, the cell line M HeLa (epithelioid cell line, human cervical carcinoma, subline Hela, Hela clone M) using the MTT -test. It is found that the extracts of Brassica oleracea L. have а cytotoxic effect which is dependent on the ploidy level of plants (haploid and diploid) and extract concentration used in the experiment. The maximum cytotoxic activity possessed extracts from haploid plants of cabbage, which is probably due to the large accumulation of secondary metabolites. The high level of tumor cell death (28,7?%) observed with the extract in a concentration of 500 mcg/ml.
