Table 3. Cytotoxicity assessed by the MTT test in HEK293. Cells (5 × 103 mL–1) were treated for 72 h with increasing concentrations of tested compounds. The cytotoxicity was assessed by the MTT test. IC50 values were calculated by a four parameter logistic model (P < 0.05). S.D. = standard deviation. Selectivity index (SI) is defined as IC50 non-tumor/tumor cell line.
