Abstract

Hevea brasiliensis latex sera are being investigated for anticancer property. In the present cell-based assay whole latex B- and C-sera were shown to be largely ineffective against human B lymphocytes of both cancer origin (BDCM) and non-cancer origin (Bristol 8); albeit slight dip in cell viability were discerned at high concentrations (100 g/mL) of whole C-serum and (200 g/mL) of whole B-serum. Interestingly the antiproliferative activity improved in the retentate of dialysed C-serum the increment however was more prominent in the dialysed C-serum precipitate (DCP) compared to the dialysed C-serum supernatant (DCS). DCP also showed a marginally higher specificity against BDCM (LC50 55.95 g/mL) compared to Bristol 8 (LC50 75.62 g/mL). However in the treatments with the retentate of dialysed B-serum both BDCM and Bristol 8 cells remained unaffected.
