Evaluation of the Antioxidant Activity and Antiproliferative Effect of the Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) Seed Extracts in Oral Carcinoma Cells

Figure 2

Water extract of jaboticaba seeds possessed the most potent cytotoxic activity. Cell survival rate of HSC-3 cells after 24 h treatment with various extracts showed that the water extract of jaboticaba seeds had the most significant cytotoxic activity compared to extracts from other portions of the plant. The IC50 of water extract of jaboticaba seeds in HSC-3 cells was approximately 15 μg/mL. Each point represents the mean and SD of six determinations.
