Paper Title: Investigation of the inhibitory potential of Quercetin to the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3 towards implications in anticancer therapy.

Abstract: Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 3 (PDK3) is a mitochondrial protein, has recently been considered as a potential pharmacological target for varying types of cancer. Here, we report the binding mechanism of quercetin to the PDK3 by using molecular docking, simulation, fluorescence spectroscopy, and isothermal titration calorimetric assays. Molecular docking along with simulation provided an in-depth analysis of protein-ligand interactions. We have observed that quercetin interacts with the important residues of the active site cavity of PDK3 and shows a well- ordered conformational fitting. The stability of the quercetin-PDK3 complex is maintained by several non-covalent interactions throughout the simulation. To complement in silico findings with the experiments, we have successfully expressed and purified human PDK3. Both fluorescence and isothermal titration calorimetric experiments showed excellent binding affinity of quercetin to the PDK3. Kinase inhibition assay further revealed a significant inhibitory potential of quercetin to the PDK3 with the IC50 values in the μM range. Quercetin is non-toxic to HEK293, and significantly inhibits the proliferation of cancer (HepG2 and A549) cell lines. All these observations clearly indicate that quercetin may be further evaluated as a promising therapeutic molecule for PDK3 with required mod- ifications and in vivo validation.


In each, Eurasia International Conference, Best Paper Award is given to Best Researches. In the Healthcare & Biological Sciences Research Association (HBSRA), the Best paper award is given to the participants with the best scholarly paper submitted and presented at the conference.

Paper Title: Synergistic Anti-Cancer Effects of Nigella Sativa Seed Oil and Conventional Cytotoxic Agent against Human Breast Cancer

Abstract: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed invasive non-skin malignancy and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women throughout the world. Scientific research has shown that black seed oil (Nigella sativa) is an effective treatment for cancer in animal studies, and as effective as anti-cancer effects on some other types of cancer.

This study aimed to investigate possible synergistic cytotoxic effects of Nigella Sativa Seed Oil in combination with a conventional cytotoxic agent (doxorubicin) for the treatment of human breast cancer cells.

Human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) were treated with Nigella Sativa seed oil either alone or in combination with doxorubicin to investigate the effect of the treatment. Cell proliferation and viability were analyzed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-biphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and cell proliferation assays, and cellular morphology by phase-contrast inverted microscopy. Furthermore, the role of Nigella Sativa seed oil in decreasing cell tumorigenicity features by testing the cancer cell migration using a wound-healing assay.

Results showed that higher concentrations (50µg/ml) of Nigella Sativa seed oil changed the breast cancer cell morphology and decreased cell proliferation and viability. We also found that breast cancer cells treated with black seed oil decreased the cell movement after 24 hours compared to the untreated cell as evident by wound healing assay. Only the higher concentration of doxorubicin (0.5µg/ml-2.5µg/ml) reduced cell proliferation and cell viability. Moreover, the combination treatment of 50ug/ml of Black seed oil with different concentrations of doxorubicin caused a significant cell reduction and decreased viability with lower concentration (0.1µg /ml) of doxorubicin.

In conclusion, Nigella Sativa Seed Oil alone oil or in combination with doxorubicin was found to synergistically decreasing the cell proliferation and cell viability of MCF-7 breast cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner, unveiling promising opportunities in the field of cancer treatment.
