Abstract:This study investigated the anticarcinogenic effect of lemongrass extract on human SW1417 colon cancer cells. SW1417 cells were cultured and allocated into five groups to apply the treatment with the lemongrass extract using 5 separate fluctuated concentrations: 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 μg/mL for 24 h. The mRNA expressions of the oxidative pressure genes (HO-1 and NQO1) were measured using the RT-PCR technique. Additionally, mitochondrial morphology was evaluated using Biotium (100 nM MitoView™ 405-Blue) within… Show more
