Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent diseases around the world. Breast cancer patients treated with radiation may face Side effects as well as cancer recurrence. Some polyphenols exhibit antioxidant effects. Citrus and Orthosiphon Stamineus have source of methylated flavone called Sinensetin (SIN). In this research, we designation of Sinensetin as increasing radiation sensitivity.

The cytotoxic effect of Sinensetin was examined in MDA-MB-231 and T47D by MTT assay. As well as, the clonogenic ability of cells were Assessmented in the presence of Sinensetin and combination with radiation. To quantify expression alterations of apoptosis related genes, utilized Real-Time PCR method.

In a dose and time-dependent manner, Sinensetin decreased the viability of MDA-MB-231 and T47D. The survival fraction was decreased in cells treated with Sinensetin (SIN) prior to X-irradiation compared to cells treated with X-ray only. More ever, expression level of, Bcl-2, STAT3, and increased P53 via treated cells with Sinensetin (SIN) and X-ray.

Due to the results, Sinensetin (SIN) can be mentioned as a novel radiosensitizer and its effects may considered increasing apoptosis following DNA damage induced by irradiation.

Radiotherapy is a frequently used therapeutic modality for breast cancer. Dalbergin, a natural antioxidant, inhibits carcinogens and tumor progression. In the present study, we investigated the effect of Dalbergin on the response of T47D and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines to ionizing radiation. In this experimental in vitro study, doubling time of T47D and MDAMB- 231 were obtained from the growth curve. The cytotoxic effect of Dalbergin on T47D and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells were estimated via MTT assay. To determine the clonogenic ability, we treated T47D and MDA-MB-231 with Dalbergin for 48 h prior to irradiation, subsequent to which a colony assay was performed. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was employed to determine the gene expression level. Dalbergin inhibited proliferation of T47D and MDA-MB-231 in a time and concentration-dependent manner. Additionally, the most appropriate time for the treatment of these types of cancer cells was found to be 48 h and the drug's concentration in both cell lines was different. The IC50 values of T47D and MDA-MB-231 cells were 0.001 and 0.0001 μM, respectively. Moreover, this drug radiaosensitizes both cell lines effectively compared with the radiation only. Finally, the gene expression level of p53, Bcl-2, and STAT3 were investigated in cancer cells. Dalbergin showed apoptotic effects probably through the STAT/p53 signaling pathway. Therefore, Dalbergin could be considered as a radiosensitizer and its effects may be owing to increased cell death.
