In this study, it is recorded the inhibition effect of Thalassiolin B on aldose reductase, alpha-glucosidase and alpha-amylase enzymes. In the next step, the molecular docking method was used to compare the biological activities of the Thalassiolin B molecule against enzymes formed from the assembly of proteins. In these calculations, the enzymes used are Aldose reductase, Alpha-Amylase, and Alpha-Glucosidase, respectively. After the docking method, ADME/T analysis of Thalassiolin B molecule was performed to be used as a drug in the pharmaceutical industry. In the MTT assay, the anti-human colon cancer properties of Thalassiolin B against EB, LS1034, and SW480 cell lines were investigated. The cell viability of Thalassiolin B was very low against human colon cancer cell lines without any cytotoxicity on the human normal (HUVEC) cell line. The IC50 of the Thalassiolin B against EB, LS1034, and SW480 were 483, 252, and 236 µg/mL, respectively. Thereby, the best cytotoxicity results and anti-human colon cancer potentials of our Thalassiolin B were observed in the case of the SW480 cell line. Maybe the anti-human colon cancer properties of Thalassiolin B are related to their antioxidant effects.
