Fig. 3From: Mellitin peptide quantification in seasonally collected crude bee venom and its anticancer effects on myelogenous K562 human leukaemia cell lineCell cycle analysis. Flow cytometry cell cycle analysis of (a) untreated leukaemia cancer cells K562 (Control Cells); treated with (b) Doxorubicin 0.3 μg/ml (DOX); (c) Melittin 3.6 μg/ml (MEL); or (d) Jordanian crude bee venom 7.4 μg/ml (JCBV) (JCBV) stained with Propidium Iodide (PI). (e) Statistical analysis of cell cycle data is treated cells in comparison to control. (f) IC50 values of 5-FU, MEL, and JCBV on K562 leukaemia cell lines. Data are represented as the mean ± standard deviation (SD), and the means are of three independent replicates (n = 12). ***p-value ≤ 0.001 in comparison to controlBack to article page
