Analyzing Cytotoxic and Apoptogenic Properties of Scutellaria litwinowii Root Extract on Cancer Cell Lines

Flow cytometry histograms of apoptosis assays by PI method in HeLa cells. Cells were treated with 50 g m of CH2Cl2 fraction for 24 h. Sub-G1 peak as an indicative of apoptotic cells, was induced in CH2Cl2 fraction treated but not in control cells. (1) control, (2) serum free (positive control); and (3) CH2Cl2 fraction. Flow cytometry histogram of positive control in which cells were cultured in serum free medium and CH2Cl2 fraction-treated cells. CH2Cl2 fraction-treated cells exhibited a sub-G1 peak in HeLa cells that indicates the involvement of an apoptotic process in CH2Cl2 fraction-induced cell death.
