The dichloromethane fraction of Cleome droserifolia methanolic extract (CDD) induces morphological changes reminiscent of apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Photomicrographs of MCF-7 cells treated with a) media alone, b) media with DMSO, c) Boswellia sacra essential oil, a known apoptosis inducer, d) 250 μg/ml of CDD for 24 h, or e) 250 μg/ml CDD after pre-treatment with 20 μM Z-VAD-FMK for 2 h. DMSO Control, MCF-7 cells treated with the same amount of DMSO as the test samples. Magnification: 400X
