Effect of Huaier on cell viability. CASY cell analysis indicated that Huaier inhibited the viability of Hacat cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. At 24 h, only the 16 mg/ml group showed significant differences compared with the control group (P < 0.01). At 48 h and 72 h, there was a significant difference in each concentration group compared with the control group (P < 0.01). Increased exposure time and concentration resulted in a decreased cell survival percentage. IC50 (72 h) = 5.78 mg/ml. ∗∗ (P<0.01).
