A study on the inhibitory effect of Radix Semiaquilegiae extract on human hepatoma HEPG-2 and SMMC-7721 cells. (1/1)
The main objective of this paper was to investigate the extraction process of ethanol extract of Radix Semiaquilegiae, as well as its inhibitory activity on human hepatoma HepG-2 and SMMC-7721 cells, and to compare the inhibitory effects of different concentrations of ethanol extracts against these two hepatoma cells. Ethanol reflux extraction and ultrasound-assisted extraction with ethanol at room temperature were used in the extraction process, and MTT assay was mainly used in the activity experiment to perform in-vitro anti HepG-2 and SMMC-7721 cell activity screening of ethanol extract, and to calculate the cell inhibition rates of the extracts. The results showed that among the two types of extracts, ethanol reflux extract had more superior antitumour activity to that of the ultrasonic extract, but all of the extracts obtained had certain anti-cancer activities, and the anti-proliferative activity increased with the increase of concentration. (+info)Semiaquilegia is a genus of plant in the Ranunculaceae family, characterized by having tuberous roots, palmately compound leaves, and zygomorphic flowers with numerous stamens and carpels, found mainly in East Asia.
I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Semiaquilegia" is not a recognized term in medical terminology. It seems to be a botanical name for a genus of plants in the family Ranunculaceae, also known as the buttercup family. The genus Semiaquilegia includes a few species of herbaceous plants native to East Asia.
