Cell cycle distribution of fucoxanthin-treated CAL-27 cells. Data are presented as means ± SD (n = 3). (a) Sub-G1 peak (apoptotic peak) after treatment with 0, 3, 6, and 9 μg/mL fucoxanthin for 24 h. The DNA content of cells in the G2 and M phases was twice that of cells in the G0 and G1 phases. Cells in the S phase exhibited a DNA content within the range of the aforementioned extremes. (b) Effect of fucoxanthin on cell cycle-related protein expressions of CAL-27 cells.
