Abstract excerpt
Salvia sahendica has been traditionally used for antibacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-cancer purposes and treatment of dyspepsia in many parts of Iran.Our aim was to investigate the mechanism by which daucosterol a β-sitosterol glycoside isolated from S. sahendica induced apoptosis against human breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cells.MCF-7 cells were treated with 5, 10, 20 and 40μM of daucosterol for 24h, and prolifera...
