Bioactive Lipidic Extracts from Octopus (Paraoctopus limaculatus): Antimutagenicity and Antiproliferative Studies

Figure 3

Antiproliferative effect of lipid extracts from octopus on murine cancerous cell lines. Murine cancer M12.C3.F6 cell lines were treated with different dose lipidic extracts during 48 h. Cellular proliferation was determined by standard MTT assay (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenytetrazolium bromide). The results shown are representative from at least three independent experiments. All values represent mean of triplicate determination ± standard deviation. Significant differences ( ) from control cell cultures are marked with an asterisk. Control cell cultures were incubated with DMSO (0.5%).
