Thujone-Rich Fraction of Thuja occidentalis Demonstrates Major Anti-Cancer Potentials: Evidences from In Vitro Studies on A375 Cells

Figure 2

(a) Effect of different concentrations TRF on viability of A375 cells as measured by MTT assay. Histogram shows 50% of cell death at 226.18 μg mL–1 of TOΦ. (b) Cytotoxicity of TRF on normal PBMC as determined by trypan blue staining assay. Cell cytotoxicity on PBMC was measured in the mentioned dose of TRF that showed minimal cytotoxic effects (~14%) even at the highest dose. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. Data are means ± SD from three different measurements and were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. P < .05 compared to the control group (zero concentration). Con = control.
