This study aimed to identify the chemical constituents of the methanol extract of using GC-MS and HPLC-DAD techniques. The cytotoxic activity was determined by the MTT assay using human breast adenocarcinoma cells (MDA-MB-231) and hTERT-immortalized mammary epithelial cells (hTERT-HME1). The half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) for MDA-MB-231 cells was found to be 1.

The aim of this study is to investigate the anticancer potential of extract on MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, its regulatory effects on miRNA expression, the content analysis of its phytochemical components, and the roles of these compounds in the regulation of miRNA expression through pathways, as well as to examine its pharmacokinetic profiles. The plant was extracted with methanol. The obtained extracts were analyzed for phytochemical components using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-DAD) techniques.

This study investigates the synthesis, characterization, and anticancer effects of carbon quantum dots (CQDs) derived from Bellardia trixago. The CQDs were analyzed using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). TEM results revealed that the CQDs have a spherical morphology and exhibit a layered structure.
