This study assessed OR3 pigment, derived from Streptomyces coelicolor JUACT03, for its anticancer potential on HepG2 liver cancer cells and its safety on HEK293 normal cells. OR3 induced apoptosis and inhibited HepG2 cell proliferation, confirmed by caspase activation, Sub-G1 phase cell cycle arrest, and reduced colony formation. Proteomic analysis revealed altered expression of proteins associated with ribosomal function, mRNA processing, nuclear transport, proteasome activity, carbohydrate metabolism, chaperone function, histone regulation, and vesicle-mediated transport. Downregulation of proteins in MAPKAP kinase1, EIF2, mTOR, and EIF4 pathways contributed to apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. Changes in c-MYC, FUBP1 target proteins and upregulation of Prohibitin-1 (PHB1) were also noted. Western blot analysis supported alterations in eIF2, mTOR, and RAN pathways, including downregulation of RAB 5, c-MYC, p38, MAPK1, and MAPK3. OR3 exhibited significant anti-angiogenic activity in the in ovo CAM assay. In summary, OR3 demonstrated strong anticancer effects, inducing apoptosis, hindering proliferation, and displaying antiangiogenic properties. These findings highlight OR3's potential as an anticancer drug candidate, warranting further in vivo exploration.
