Cytotoxicity of the four xanthones was tested on HepG2 cells and HL-60 cells by sulphorhodamine B (SRB) assay. Clonogenic survival assay, trypan blue exclusion method, AO/EB staining and DNA fragmentation assay were conducted to investigate the effect on growth inhibition and apoptosis in the two cell lines in vitro.
