Hoechst staining in DLA cells treated with isocurcumenol (a and b). Untreated and 50 μg/ml treated DLA cells (c and d). Untreated and 100 μg/ml treated KB cells (e and f). Untreated and 50 μg/ml treated A 549 cells (g and h). Untreated and 50 μg/ml treated K562 cells. (i) Graph showing the % of apoptotic cells induced by the treatment with isocurcumenol by Hoechst staining on cancer cell lines. () shows the apoptotic cells with chromatin condensation.
