Effect of chrysin on the viability of uveal melanoma cells, human RPE cells and scleral fibroblasts. Phase-contrast photomicrograph of uveal melanoma cells, human RPE cells and fibroblasts treated with various concentrations of chrysin. Human uveal melanoma cells (SP6.5 and M17), human RPE cells and scleral fibroblasts were seeded into 24-well plates at density of 8×10⁴/well and treated with chrysin at 10, 30 and 100 µM for 48 h. Chrysin at 30 and 100 µM significantly decreased the number of viable melanoma cells, whereas did not affect the viability of human RPE cells and scleral fibroblasts. RPE, retinal pigment epithelial.
