  1. Normal cell line: Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79). Tumor cell lines: murine melanoma (B16F10), human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7), human cervical adenocarcinoma (HeLa), human hepatocellular liver carcinoma (HepG2), and human glioblastoma (MO59J, U343 and U251). ND, not determined. The selective index is the ratio between the IC50 values of the oleoresin or (-)-copalic acid on V79 cells and those found in the cancer cell lines
