The nuclear morphology of AGS cells treated with EM-EA extract. a Control sample treated with 0.1% (v/v) DMSO at 48 h. b Sample treated with EM-EA extract (27.5 μg/ml) at 48 h. c Sample treated with doxorubicin (0.3 μg/ml) at 48 h. d The percentage of abnormal nuclei of control samples (n = 3), EM-EA-treated samples (n = 3), and DOX-treated samples (n = 2) at 48 h. Each value represents mean ± SD. The statistical difference was analyzed by two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-tests (****p < 0.0001). (1) Bright-field images. (2) Fluorescence-field images. Arrowheads and arrows point cells with abberant cell morphology and nuclear fragmentation respectively
