Abstract

Pada tahun 2020, kanker menjadi penyebab kematian utama di dunia dan dalam kurung 5 tahun prevalensi kanker mengalami peningkatan di Indonesia. Kekurangan dari terapi kanker yaitu kurangnya selektif dalam mematikan sel kanker, sehingga dapat mematikan sel sehat maka dari itu pasien dapat merasakan efek samping yang cukup signifikan. Oleh karena itu, telah diteliti pencarian terapi alternatif dari daun pepaya. Tujuan dari artikel ini adalah mengetahui potensi daun pepaya sebagai antikanker. Artikel ilmiah yang dipublikasi 2010 – 2021 dari 2 database (Scopus dan PubMed) ditelaah dan didapatkan 38 artikel. Daun pepaya diketahui mengandung kandungan senyawa flavonoid, fenolat, steroid, alkaloid, terpenoid, fenolat, karotenoid, tannin, saponin, asam lemak, glikosida, glikosinalat, dan klorofil. Daun pepaya juga diketahui memiliki aktivitas antikanker terhadap kanker kulit, payudara, hepar, paru, pankreas, serviks, prostat, ovarium, mesothelioma, dan darah. Aktivitas antikanker daun pepaya dipengaruhi oleh karakteristik sel dan sampel uji. Pemilihan sel uji memengaruhi pengujian antiproliferasi, yaitu dengan doubling time yang singkat maka potensi antiproliferasi lebih tinggi. Kandungan senyawa pada daun pepaya memengaruhi aktivitas antikanker, dan perolehannya sangat berhubungan dengan pemilihan pelarut dan teknik ekstraksi yang tepat. Sistem penghantaran sampel dengan nanopartikel yang diformulasikan dengan daun pepaya juga membantu meningkatkan bioavaibilitas dari ekstrak daun pepaya, sehingga potensi antikanker meningkat.
