it has been reported that latex and extracts of different species of ficus are cytotoxic to some human cancerous cell lines. in this study, cytotoxicity of fruit and leaf extracts as well as the latex of ficus carica l. on hela cell line were evaluated. ethanolic extracts of leaves and fruits were prepared through percolation and ethyl acetate and dichloromethane extracts were prepared by reflu...

The Sechium edule Perla Negra cultivar is a recently-obtained biological material whose progenitors are S. edule var. nigrum minor and S. edule var. amarus silvestrys, the latter of which has been reported to have antiproliferative activity against the HeLa P-388 and L-929 cancer cell lines. The present study aimed to determine if the methanolic extract of the fruit of the Perla Negra cultivar ...

The role of cell interactions in lymphocyte stimulation was analyzed by studying the kinetics of lymphocyte proliferation at different cell concentrations, and also by a lymphocyte microculture technique in solid medium. An absolute requirement for cell interactions was found in lymphocyte responses to concanavalin A, pokeweed mitogen, sodium periodate, purified protein derivative from Mycobact...
