Triphala Suppresses Growth and Migration of Human Gastric Carcinoma Cells In Vitro and in a Zebrafish Xenograft Model

Figure 2

Evaluation of the in vivo antitumor effects of Triphala in zebrafish xenografted with the human gastric carcinoma cell line MGC803. (a) Representative photographs of the body (upper panels) and tail (lower panels) area of tumor-bearing zebrafishes exposed to increasing concentration (0, 50, 100, and 150 μg/mL) of Triphala for 48 h. The in vivo growth and metastasis are indicated by red stained tumor cells detected with the fluorescence microscope. The growth inhibition rates (b) and metastasis inhibition rates (c) were calculated as percentages relative to the control values.
