Abstract
In the present work, 16 different plant drugs used by traditional healers from West Bengal were screened through in vitro cell line model. Herbal drugs used by traditional tribal healers in Purulia, Birbhum and Bankura districts of West Bengal were collected and screening against acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell line (HL-60). Among 16 plant extracts, bark of Flacourtia indica (66.67%), leaf of Madhuca longifolia (69.17%), and leaf of Prosopis cineraria (68.08%) showed better cytotoxicity results than other herbals. Further, time-dependent study showed maximum cytotoxicity of the selected herbal extracts between 36 and 48 hours of treatment in both acute and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cell lines (HL-60 and K562). The LC-MS/MS analysis of the selected drugs revealed the presence of picrotoxinin and 10-deacetylbaccatin from F. indica, isoorientin and hirsutrin from M. longifolia, vitexin and rhoifolin in P. cineraria.
