Fig 2. Comparison of the effect of anticancer drugs on short- and long-term proliferation of breast cancer cell lines.

Fig 2

(A) Morphology of control and treated breast cancer cells indicative of growth arrest phenotype. (B) Colony formation assay of control and treated breast cancer cells (MCF7) showing decrease in treated cells. (C) Quantitation of the colony-forming assay from three independent experiments. (D) Comparative effect of embelin on cancer (MCF7) and normal (TIG-3) cells as detected by short term (viability) and long term (colony forming efficiency) growth assays. Statistical significance was calculated by QuickCals t-test calculator (***P<0.001).
