Figure 2From: Induction of apoptosis in cancer cell lines by the Red Sea brine pool bacterial extracts MMP changes in HeLa cells after treatment with marine bacterial extracts. Cells were treated with 500 μg/mL of each extract for 12 and 16 h and stained with 50 μM JC-1 and analyzed by flow cytometry. Figure presents the 2D plots of FL-2H vs. FL-1H indicating percentage of cells (± S.D) with intact (red) or permeable (green) mitochondrial membranes. Untx represent untreated sample and 100 mM H2O2 was used as a positive control. The Z- factor was calculated to be 0.79 and 0.80 for 12 h and 16 h time points, respectively.Back to article page
