Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the combined cytotoxic effects of spray-dried extracts of Phyllanthus niruri and cisplatin on HT29 colorectal carcinoma and HepG2 liver cancer cell lines.
- Researchers treated the cancer cells with varying concentrations of the extract and cisplatin for 4 and 24 hours, using flow cytometry to assess cell viability and cycle stages.
- Results indicated that while each treatment had distinct effects on cancer cell survival, the combination showed increased efficacy, particularly with HepG2 cells when treated with both the extract and cisplatin.
