Figure 4From: Myricetin enhance chemosensitivity of 5-fluorouracil on esophageal carcinoma in vitro and in vivoChemosensitizing effect of myricetin on tumor cells apoptosis. Myricetin increase the chemosensitivity of 5-FU on apoptosis rate in EC9706 cells. The cells were stained by annexin V-FITC/PI, and cell apoptosis was analyzed by FCM. The data showed that apoptotic cells was statistically significant increased in 5-FU + myricetin combination group, compared to other three groups. (*P < 0.05 vs control, # P < 0.05 vs 5-FU group).Back to article page
