Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) The effect of different D. superbus extract treatments on the micronuclei frequency (%) in CHO-K1 cells. Cells were treated for 24 h either with DMSO at 0.3% (NC), MMC at 0.025 µg/mL or 3 different concentrations of D. superbus extract, 6.3, 12.5 and 25 µg/mL. Then cells were incubated with 3 µg/mL of cytochalasin B for another 24 h. Graphs represent data collected from 3 independent experiments. One-way ANOVA, Tukey’s multiple comparisons test using GraphPad Prism 7 software, was applied to calculate statistical significance in comparison with the NC control. (* p = 0.0155, *** p = 0.0006, **** p < 0.0001). Micronuclei frequency (%) was calculated from the following Equation: Micronuclei frequency (%) = binucleated cells with MN /binucleated cells *100. ( B ) Representative microscopic images showing micronuclei formation in binucleated CHO-K1 cells, observed with a 40× objective. CHO-K1 cell DNA was stained with Hoechst dye. Green arrows indicate the micronuclei, and the white line, labelled 50 μm, represents the scale bar in the image.

Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) The effect of different P. paradoxus extract treatments on the micronuclei frequency (%) in CHO-K1 cells. Cells were treated for 24 h with 3 different concentrations of P. paradoxus extract, 12.5, 25 and 50 µg/mL or MMC at 0.025 µg/mL, then followed by 24 h incubation with 3 µg/mL of cytochalasin B.
