Article Title: Antagonistic Effects of CAPE (a Component of Propolis) on the Cytotoxicity and Genotoxicity of Irinotecan and SN38 in Human Gastrointestinal Cancer Cells In Vitro
doi: 10.3390/molecules25030658
Figure Lengend Snippet: The effect of SN38 and co-treatment CAPE+SN38 on HCT116 cells ( A ), HT29 cells ( B ), AGS cells ( C ) and PBLs ( D ) growth after 72 h incubation evaluated by MTT assay (the mean ± SEM) Treatment of CAPE and SN38 simultaneously shows antagonistic effect on cytotoxicity of HT29, HCT116, AGS cells and PBLs. The figure under the graph show the ratio of expected cell number/observed cell number. Factor < 1 represents antagonistic effect CAPE on SN38.
