Dipteran Carboxymethyl Chitosan as an Inexhaustible Derivative with a Potential Antiproliferative Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells

Figure 4

Carboxymethyl chitosan (CM-Ch) induced morphological changes in HepG2 cells. Cells were treated with the indicated concentrations of CM-Ch for 48 or 72 h (sy-CM-Ch). Representative images were shown from three independent experiments. Ca-CM-Ch, Chrysomya albiceps CM-Ch; Sa-CM-Ch, Sarcophaga aegyptiaca CM-Ch; sy-CM-Ch, commercial chitosan CM-Ch. 400×.
