Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of hot ethanolic extract from dried Anemone nemorosa L. plant material (AN2) on human normal brain cell line NHA and human tumor brain cell line U87, in cytotoxicity MTS assay. ( A ) NHA cell line viability after 24 h of exposure to test vegetal extract AN2. ( B ) U87 cell line viability after 24 h of exposure to test vegetal extract AN2. All determinations were made in triplicate series, and the results are calculated as an average. The graphs present the percentage of cell viability in each dilution point series by comparison to negative control point series (CN). By statistical calculation, the results on the NHA cell line were not statistically significant ( p > 0.05, n = 3), while the results on the U87 cell lines were statistically significant ( p < 0.05, n = 3).
Article Snippet: Accordingly, MTS tests were performed on human normal brain cell line NHA (CC-2565, Lonza, Basel, Switzerland) and human tumor brain cell line U87 MG (ATCC-HTB-14, Tell City, IN, USA).
Techniques: MTS Assay, Comparison, Negative Control
