Effects of QJJ and SJK on HepG2 cell survival. HepG2 cells were treated with the indicated concentration of (a) QJJ or (b) SJK. The survival rate was represented as mean ± SD ( per concentration). , , and , significantly different as compared with the untreated control. (c) Survival rate of HepG2 cells in the untreated control group, IR group, low-dose QJJ (20 μg/mL), intermediate-dose QJJ (40 μg/mL), high-dose QJJ (80 μg/mL), and SJK group (2.5 μg/mL SJK). The survival rate was represented as mean ± SD ( per group, except for the control group). , significantly different as compared with the control group; , significantly different as compared with the IR group.
