[Retracted] Differential Control of Growth, Apoptotic Activity, and Gene Expression in Human Breast Cancer Cells by Extracts Derived from Medicinal Herbs Zingiber officinale
Figure 2
Ginger extract inhibits clonogenicity of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. Cells were seeded onto a 6-well plate at 300/well and treated with indicated concentrations of the ginger extract of ginger for 10 days. A survival of 100% corresponds to the number of colonies obtained with cells that were not treated with ginger extract (control culture). Dose-dependent colony formation inhibition was clearly evident. The experiment was repeated five times in triplicates, and the colony-forming potential of the cells at each dose of ginger is expressed in terms of percent of control and is reported as the mean SD.
