Cytotoxic Effects of Theranekron D6 on HepG2 Heaptocellular Carcinoma Cells
Deniz Şumnulu
Abstract:Theranekron D6 is an alcholic extract of Tarantul cubensis. In this study, the cytotoxic effects of Theranekron D6 on HepG2 and on AML12 cells were investigated by MTT analyses. Gene expression analyses were performed by qRT-PCR. Apoptotic, necrotic, and healthy cells were viewed by a fluorescent microscope, and they were counted by a flow cytometry device. 143 µg/mL Theranekron D6 was calculated as an IC50 value for HepG2 cells, and it was applied to both cell lines. No significant increase in the amount of a… Show more
