Cytotoxic effect of BJEE on colorectal cancer cell lines (HT29) after 24, 48, and 72 h
| Sample | HT29 treatment time periods; BJEE IC50 (μg/mL) for each period | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| HT29 | 24 h | 48 h | 72 h |
| BJEE | 65±4.2 | 48±2.5 | 25±3.1 |
Notes: HT29 cells were treated with different concentration of BJEE at different time periods (24, 48, and 72 h). The IC50 values of BJEE were detected for different times of treatment. The data represent mean ± SD.
Abbreviations: BJEE, Brucea javanica ethanolic extract; IC50, concentration that inhibits 50% of the cell growth.
