The Cunila angustifolia essential oil was obtained from fresh leaves by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS to determine its chemical composition. The essential oil presented pulegone (29.5 %) and isomenthol (27.0 %) as major components, and other compounds such as menthone (8.6 %), neomenthol (7.2 %), menthyl acetate (2.5 %) and caryophyllene oxide (2.0 %) were identified. The cytotoxic activity of the essential oil was evaluated by MTS assay, with the human cancer cell lines of the lung (A549), breast (MCF-7) and skin melanoma (SK-Mel-28). The assay showed the highest selectivity, to MCF-7 cell lines, with IC equal to 34.0 μg mL , low selectivity for SK-Mel-28 cell lines, with IC equal to 279.9 μg mL , and no mortality to A549 cell lines.
狭叶山香圆精油采用水蒸气蒸馏法从新鲜叶片中提取,并用 GC-FID 和 GC-MS 进行分析,以确定其化学成分。该精油的主要成分是薄荷酮(29.5%)和异胡薄荷醇(27.0%),还鉴定出其他化合物,如薄荷醇(8.6%)、新薄荷醇(7.2%)、乙酸薄荷酯(2.5%)和石竹烯氧化物(2.0%)。采用 MTS 法评价了精油对人肺癌(A549)、乳腺癌(MCF-7)和皮肤黑色素瘤(SK-Mel-28)细胞系的细胞毒性。结果表明,该精油对 MCF-7 细胞系具有最高的选择性,IC 为 34.0 μg/mL,对 SK-Mel-28 细胞系的选择性较低,IC 为 279.9 μg/mL,对 A549 细胞系无致死性。
