Table 1.
Percentage of cell cycle arrest induced by fucoidan in HepG2 cancer cells.
| Concentration (μg/ml) | Cell cycle arrest (%) |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| G0/G1 | S | G2/M | |
| Fucoidan 0 | 50 ± 4.19 | 20.6 ± 2.08 | 29.4 ± 2.07 |
| Fucoidan 50 | 65.3 ± 5.15 | 14.3 ± 3.52 | 20.4 ± 3.00 |
| Fucoidan 100 | 72.6 ± 3.20 | 10.2 ± 1.20 | 17.2 ± 1.44 |
| Fucoidan 200 | 85.3 ± 3.72 | 05.3 ± 1.05 | 09.4 ± 1.91 |
| Quercetin 200 | 87.0 ± 4.06 | 03.7 ± 1.61 | 09.3 ± 1.86 |
The values are presented as mean ± SD in triplicate and significance (p ≤ 0.05) determined by student t-test between fucoidan treated vs. untreated control.
