Influence of CJ extract on cell cycle progression and motility of MCF-7 cells. (a) Cells that underwent G1, S, and G2-M phases of cell cycle were analyzed by a thymidine analogue, EdU/PI-based cell sorting after treatment with each extract at a concentration of 50 μg/mL for 48 h. EdU, 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine. PI, propidium iodide. (b) Cell migration assay. (b₁) Representative images of cultured cells in the presence of CJ extract at the concentrations of 0, 10, 50, and 100 μg/mL. The scale bar in a panel of (b₁) represents 100 μm, applicable to all panels in (b₁). (b₂) Quantification of cell migration rate under the designated cultured conditions. ; error bars, mean ± SEM. Asterisks indicate significant differences among the conditions. NS, no significant difference.
