Figure 9 Effect of NG and silymarin against caspase 3-mediated apoptosis. CCl4 treatment increases caspase 3 activity in HuH-7 cells. HuH-7 cells were treated with CCl4 in presence or absence of test materials (NG and silymarin) and caspase 3 activity was measured as described in Materials and Methods section. Data are expressed as mean ± SD and are from representative experiments repeated twice and conducted in triplicate. Statistical significance: bP < 0.001 vs the untreated control. dP < 0.01; fP < 0.001 vs CCl4-treated cells.
