FIGURE 3.
Cellular detachment of HT-29 and HCT-116 cells in response to natural and enantiomeric bile acids. Relative number of detached cells after treatment for 1, 2, 4, or 8 h with vehicle control (CTRL, EtOH) and 500 μm LCA and ent-LCA (A), 500 μm CDCA and ent-CDCA (B), or 500 μm DCA and ent-DCA (C). For all of the experiments, the values are reported as the means ± S.D. (n = 3). *, p < 0.05.
