Figure Lengend Snippet: Antiproliferative assay results of the cells treated with 500 µg/mL concentration of the extracts and crocetin. Values are expressed as cell viability (%) from three independent experiment (n = 3). HUVEC cells were used as control and set as 100%
Article Snippet: Human lung carcinoma (A549), breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), cervical cancer (HeLa), compared to the non-malignant human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) lines, obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, USA) were used for determination cytotoxic, antiproliferative, and lactate dehydrogenase enzyme activities of saffron extracts and crocetin.
