- Abstract: The ethyl acetate extract of Euphorbia lunulata Bge was separated and researched on anticancer activity about it with in vitro cell experiments,in order to provide a theoretical basis for the exploit and utilization of E.lunulata and more options to develop natural anticancer drugs.Quercetin and Gallic Acid in ethyl acetate were extracted by HPLC,which the ethyl acetate extract of E.lunulata was separated and extracted by solvent system.The MTT was used to measure the inhibition of each component with different concentration from ethyl acetate extract to the 2R-75-30 breast cancer cell.The results showed that Quercetin and Galic Acid of ethyl acetate extract were 19.99％ and 55.04％,respectively.There were 17 component from the ethyl acetate extract,and finally merged into six fractions.Each component (the concentration of 50 μg/ml-150 μg/ml range) from ethyl acetate extract of E.lunulata could inhibit the growth of ZR-75-30 breast cancer cell.And a certain gradient relationship with the drug concentration increased with the inhibition rate enhancement on the 2R-75-30 breast cancer cell's growth.The 2nd fraction showed the highest activity.It was concluded that there were flavonoids and phenolic acids in ethyl acetate extract.Each component from the extract showed inhibition on the growth of breast cancer cell if it was further separated.This study was designed to provide a theoretical basis to exploit the anticancer drugs from E.lunulata.
