The britanin is a chemotaxonomic marker for the plant
Inula britannica
. Britanin has
anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic activity [1], is a promising candidate for chemotherapy
of stomach cancer (BGC-823) [2], blocks the growth of cell lines of breast cancer
(MCF-7, MDA-MB-468) [3], human tumor cell lines RD (rhabdomyosarcoma), MCF7
(adenocarcinoma breast) and MS (melanoma) [4], inhibits topoisomerase II and cancer
cell lines A549, HepG-2 and HT-29 [5] and has the potential effect of pancreatic cancer
treatment [6].
Britanin was isolated from the aerial part of
Inula britannica
, growing in the
Tashkent region of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
Cytotoxic activity of britanin
in vitro
in relation to cervical cancer (HeLa) and
laryngeal adenocarcinoma (HEp-2) cells has been studied. In concentrations of 1 μg/ml,
britanin showed cell suppression at 19.4 0.5% (HeLa) and 2.8 0.8% (HEp-2) and in
concentrations of 10 μg/ml at 77.5 3.3% and 79.8 4.0%, respectively. Cisplatin was
used as a reference drug, with 81.6 3.9% (HeLa) and 52.8 3.6% (HEp-2) and 95.0 5.0%
and 89.2.2% at 10 μg/ml, respectively.
Thus, britanin has high cytotoxic activity with regard to cervical cancer cells (HeLa)
and laryngeal adenocarcinoma (HEp-2).
