Background/purposeIt has been confirmed that polyphenolic compounds present in food have various pharmaceutical functions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate citrus polyphenol (CP) for dental applications. The culture medium with CP was developed to inhibit the proliferation of oral cancer cells. CP could be used as a supplemental compound for topical application for oral cancer patients.MethodsIn this study, the metabolic activity and cell toxicity of CP (at concentrations of 1%, 0.1%, and 0.01%) for oral and cervical cancer cells were investigated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide and lactate dehydrogenase assays (n = 6). Furthermore, the effects of CP on motilities of oral and cervical cancer cells were also evaluated using a scratch assay model.ResultsWe found that the growth of Ca9-22 and HeLa cells on tissue culture polystyrene was greatly inhibited when 1% CP was added to the medium. In addition, significant differences (p < 0.01) in cytotoxicities of oral and cervical cancer cells were observed after 6 days in the culture medium to which 1% CP was added. Furthermore, using a scratch assay model to evaluate the migratory abilities of oral and cervical cancer cells, it was also found that CP could inhibit the migratory abilities of cancer cells.ConclusionThe results confirmed the feasibility of the topical application of CP as a supplemental compound for inhibition of cancer cell proliferation and migration.
