Figure 1

The effect of Cornus mas L. extracts on the cellular viability of primary osteoblasts in mice. Primary osteoblasts were incubated with ascorbic acid (50 μg/mL), β-glycerophosphate (10 mM), and cotreated with RED EXT1 (a), YL EXT2 (b), and YL EXT3 (c) at three different concentrations (2, 5, and 10 μg/mL) for 3 days.
