Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Crocin has been proposed as a promising candidate for cancer chemoprevention. The purpose of this investigation was to investigate the chemopreventive action and the possible mechanisms of crocin against human colon cancer cells in vitro. METHODS: Cell proliferation was examined using MTT assay and the cell cycle distribution fractions were analyzed using flow cytometric analysis after propidium iodide...
