EP on RAW 264.7 cell proliferation and tubulin cytoskeleton. (a) RAW 264.7 cells were treated with increasing concentrations of EP for one or three days, and cell proliferation was determined in a triplicate experiment by the MTT assay. At day one, EP showed reduced capacity of inhibiting cell proliferation compared to three-day treatment. RU: relative units. (b) One-day EP treatment, at 10 μM, modified tubulin cytoskeleton determined by immune fluorescence (red). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Representative microphotographs from three independent determinations are shown.
