Petiveria alliacea F4 fraction is cytotoxic to tumor cell lines without affecting human normal cells. A. A375 B. Mel Rel C. K562 D. Human fibroblasts E. PBMC stimulated with PHA or F. PBMC-PBS treated with F4 fraction concentrations (white) at 125 (1), 62.5 (2), 31.2 (3), 15.6 (4), 7.8 (5), 3.9 (6), and 1.8 μg/ml (7); or vincristine (black) 0.1 (1), 0.05 (2), 0.025 (3), 0.0125 (4) 0.00625 (5), 0.0031 (6) and 0.0015 μg/ml (7), for 24 h. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay as described in the methods section. Data represent cell viability percentage (%), where the vehicle-treated cells are regarded as 100%. The values are mean ± SEM from three independent experiments.
