Vascular Protection by Ethanol Extract of Morus alba Root Bark: Endothelium-Dependent Relaxation of Rat Aorta and Decrease of Smooth Muscle Cell Migration and Proliferation

Figure 3

Effect of MAE on HASMCs viability and proliferation. (a) Serum starved HASMCs were pretreated with indicated concentrations of MAE for cytotoxicity. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM (n=5). (b) Cell proliferation was measured by MTS assay on PDGF-BB induce HASMCs with or without MAE. Values are expressed as mean ± SEM. P<0.05; P<0.001, significant difference versus control (PDGF-BB alone).
