Figure 5

Activation of caspases by FAA in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. The cells were incubated with FAA extract at IC25, IC50, and IC75 values for 24 h, after which the activity of various caspases was determined as described in Section 2. Data are presented in mean ± SD (). Values for the treated group are significantly different to the untreated control group at the same time point at , , and .
