In-vitro analysis of cellular and biochemical effects of Divya Sarva-Kalp-Kwath (SKK): (A) significant loss of cell viability was observed following the stimulation of HepG2 cells with 10 mM of CCl4. Co-treatment of the CCl4 stimulated HepG2 cells with SKK led to a significant recovery of cell viability. Also, CCl4 stimulation of the HepG2 cells led to an augmented release of liver injury serum-based biomarkers, (B) aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and (C) alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Release of these serum hepatotoxicity biomarkers was ameliorated following co-treatment of the CCl4 stimulated HepG2 cells with SKK (0.5 and 1 mg/mL). Results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett's multiple comparison t-test was used to calculate the statistical difference. p-value *<0.05; **<0.01; #<0.01.
