Abstract

Clinacanthus nutans (Burm.f.) Lindau belongs to the Thai national list of essential medicine (NLEM). This plant has been used in the treatment and prevention of a variety of symptoms such as anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, we investigated the effects of different extract fractions of C. nutans on anti-cell death. Firstly, the C. nutans fractionation was performed by sequential extraction using different organic solvents including hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, and water, respectively. We further investigated its anti-apoptosis activity in bovine endothelial cells (CPAE) after the treatment of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by using PrestoBlue™ cell-viability assay. The result showed that LPS strongly induced cell deaths with the CC50 values of LPS of 57.62 ng/mL. Interestingly, all fractions of C. nutans extract significantly lower the LPS-induced cell death in a dose-dependent manner. The ethyl acetate fraction was the most effective to protect cell death. At 125 μg/mL, it could protect more than 80% of the cells. Furthermore, the bioactive compound glyceryl 1,3 distearate (C39H76O5) was measured in C. nutans extract by using TLC analysis which could be the major compound that contributed to the anti-apoptosis activity. Our finding could lead to the development of C. nutans extract to treat inflammation during bovine mastitis.
