| Popis: | Introduction Medicinal plants have been used for disease treatment throughout history, especially in Asia. Vietnam is a tropical country which possesses forests with a diversity of plants; among the plants, many have been historically used as alternative therapies for various disease treatments. In this study we aimed to evaluate the selective cytotoxicity of some plant extracts (collected from Vietnamese forests) against hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2, compared to adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs). |
