Methods: Adenocarcinoma cell line A549 was used to assess MTT based cells viability. In vitro cytotoxic activity was evaluated for 3 different concentration of doxorubicin and A3AR by MTT cytotoxicity assay. Cytotoxicity assay carried out for 3 consecutive days that involves culturing cells into Dulbecco’s MEM medium modified with 10% FBS for 24 h then treatment with different dose of standard and test drug with incubation period of 24 h followed by treatment with MTT for estimation of cytotoxicity and finally, optical density (OD) was measured at 570-630 nm. Results: Different concentration of doxorubicin (1, 5, 10 µM) and ABMECA (10-6M, 10-5M and 10-4M) shown dose-dependent cytotoxicity. There was a significant decrease (p<0.05) in cell viability in both doxorubicin and ABMECA concentration in a dose-dependent manner. This study may guide further for in vivo evaluation of test drug in the lung cancer model. Conclusion: A3 Adenosine Receptor agonist could be potential moiety for the treatment of lung cancer and it would require in vivo study for further research.
