Saraca indica is an important medicinal plant and the compounds present in this plant are very much helpful in
preventing various diseases. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the antioxidant activity and in vitro
investigation of S. indica extract on lead-induced toxicity in HepG2 and HEK293 cell lines. The antioxidant assay was
performed by two methods such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-
sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical cation scavenging assay. MTT assay was used for in vitro cytotoxic activity of human
hepatocellular liver cell (HepG2) and human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cell lines. IC50 values of the DPPH radical
scavenging assay for aqueous and ethanolic extracts were 380 and 350 μg/mL, respectively. IC50 values of ABTS+ radical
cation scavenging assay for aqueous and ethanolic extracts were 200 and 350 μg/mL, respectively. Cell viability for HepG2
and HEK293 cell lines was found to be 50% at 800 μg/mL concentration for aqueous extract and 1000 μg/mL for ethanolic
extract. Data obtained from the MTT assay indicated that S. indica extract significantly increased the viability of the HepG2
and HEK293 cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. Both the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of S. indica are involved in the
protection against lead-induced toxicity. Therefore, S. indica extract may be used as a salvage therapy for lead-induced
toxicity. Further studies are required to isolate the bioactive compounds from plants for advanced investigation.
