Figure Lengend Snippet: Percentage viability of Kelly cells treated with W. somnifera . Cells were incubated for 96 h in 96-well plates with medium containing the vehicle (vehicle control) or vehicle supplemented with various concentrations of W. somnifera extract ( A ) or fractions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 ( B to L ). Cell viability was assessed by MTT assay, and absorbance of the resulting colour was measured at 450 nm with a plate reader. Viability values for treated cells were expressed as percentages relative to vehicle-treated controls. Bars represent mean ± SD ( n = 4). Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test (GraphPad Prism). P values ≤ 0.05 were considered statistically significant; ns indicates not significant. Asterisks below the x-axes denote the determined sub-cytotoxic concentrations
Article Snippet: Data were analysed by the one-way analysis of variants (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett’s multiple comparison test, or by Student’s t-test, using the GraphPad prism software package (version 9).
