[Anti-proliferation and chemo-sensitization effects of apigenin on human lung cancer cells].

Objective: To investigate the antitumor effect of apigenin on human lung cancer cells.

Methods: The anti-proliferation and sensitization effects of apigenin on human lung cancer cells was accessed by counting cells after Trypan blue staining and MTS assay.

Results: (1) Apigenin significantly suppressed the proliferation of four types of human lung cancer cells (A549:P=0.
