Abstract:Mychonastes sp. 247 is a newly isolated freshwater microalga. Mychonastes sp. 247 methanolic extract (ME) suppresses the growth of A549 human non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. However, the underlying mechanism of this anticancer effect remains unclear. The present study aimed to reveal the underlying mechanism of the anticancer effect of ME in A549 cells. The components of ME, their cytotoxicity in normal cells, and their inhibitory effect on the growth and migration of two-dimensional and three-dimens… Show more
