The Effects of on the Apoptosis Induction and the Reversal of Multidrug Resistance in HL-60/MX2.

The present study investigated the anti-proliferative and chemosensitizing effects of var. against multi-drug resistant (MDR) cancer cells. The 80% methanol extract, chloroform (CHCI) fraction and butanol (BuOH) fraction of inhibited the growth of mitoxantrone (MX) resistant HL-60 (HL-60/MX2) cells.
