Özet
Naringenin, a prominent member of the flavanone family of polyphenols, is widely distributed in cherries, tomatoes, and citrusfruits, such as grapefruits, as well as in medicinal plants. In vitro and in vivo investigations have shown that naringenin,naringenin‐loaded nanoparticles, and its derivatives, whether administered singularly or in conjunction with other anticanceragents, can effectively counteract carcinogenic agents and inhibit the advancement of various malignancies, including coloncancer, lung neoplasms, ovarian cancer, and breast cancer. In this study, the effects of naringenin‐benzylpiperazines (3b, 3f,and 3g) were investigated on breast ductal carcinoma MCF7 (ER‐α+), human breast adenocarcinoma SK‐Br, human triple‐negative breast metastatic adenocarcinoma MDA‐MB‐231, ovarian cancer NIH‐OVCAR‐3, and human ovarian cancer SKOV‐3cells. The IC50 values of 3b, 3f, and 3g were found to be between 31.39 and 73.60 µM, 29.11 and 86.91 µM, and 23.53 and88.63 µM, respectively. The data obtained indicate that compound 3f may be a molecule with the potential to trigger mito-chondrial apoptosis in cancer cell lines in a dose‐dependent manner by modulating hypoxia, angiogenesis, and JAK/STATsignaling pathways. In addition, the potential therapeutic value of the compound and its interaction mechanisms withmolecular targets have been investigated through theoretical (in silico) calculations.
