Persea americana Mill. Seed: Fractionation, Characterization, and Effects on Human Keratinocytes and Fibroblasts

Figure 6

Effects of 10  g/mL avocado cotyledon methanol-water partition M and HSCCC fractions on HaCaT keratinocytes. Proliferation rates (dark columns) were investigated with the BrdU incorporation assay; the intracellular metabolism (bright columns) was measured through MTT reduction. Values were normalized to proliferation and accordingly intracellular metabolism of untreated HaCaT (=100%, —). (Error bars = SE; ;   to untreated NHDF; PC: positive control = 10% FCS).
