Abstract excerpt
The effects of synthesized 7-OH-4-CH(3)-coumarin on proliferation and differentiation of human hepatoma carcinoma cell line, SMMC-7721, were examined. Results showed that 7-OH-4-CH(3)-coumarin suppressed the proliferation of the SMMC-7721 cells in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC(50) value of 356 +/- 1.8 .M, while concentrations< or =200 mM could trigger differentiation. After treatment with this compound at...
