Abstract
This experiment evaluated antioxidant, anti-human breast cancer activities, and cytotoxicity effects of green synthesis of Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) containing Foeniculum Vulgare aqueous extract. Mixing Foeniculum Vulgare aqueous with Au chloride solution produced Au nanoparticles. The characteristics of Au nanoparticles determined using Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FT‐IR), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), UV–Visible Spectroscopy (UV–Vis), and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE‐SEM). To check the cytotoxicity and anti-breast cancer effects of Au chloride, Foeniculum Vulgare aqueous extract, and AuNPs on common breast cancer cell lines i.e., ZR-75-30, T47D, and HCC1187 was used MTT assay. AuNPs showed no cytotoxicity and the most effective anti-breast cancer features compared to other items that were tested. They had no cytotoxic effects on normal cell line (HUVEC) and had very low cell viability, high anti-breast cancer activities dose-dependently against ZR-75-30, T47D, and HCC1187 cell lines. In the presence of butylated hydroxytoluene as the positive control, the DPPH test was used to evaluate the antioxidant features of Au chloride, Foeniculum Vulgare aqueous extract, and Au nanoparticles. AuNPs showed the best antioxidant properties compared to other items that were tested. Perhaps remarkable anti-human breast cancer activities of Au nanoparticles synthesized by Foeniculum Vulgare aqueous extract due to its antioxidant properties. After clinical trial and confirmation of results, this formulation can be used as an effective drug to treat breast cancer.
