Figure 1. In vitro effects of the S. edule var. nigrum spinosum extract on the proliferation of the P388 leukemia cell line and mononuclear bone marrow cells of healthy mice (MNCBMs). The cells were exposed to the S. edule var. nigrum spinosum extract, and the cellular proliferation was evaluated using a crystal violet assay. The data are presented as the means ± SDs (n = 4) and are representative of four independent experiments. The significance of the differences were determined by Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05).
