Effects of royal jelly on energy status and expression of apoptosis and biotransformation genes in normal fibroblast and colon cancer cells

Royal jelly is natural bee product, traditionally used in medicine for antitumor, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibiotic and many other beneficial properties. The aim of this study was to determine biological effects of royal jelly samples originating from Serbia on normal human fibroblast (MRC-5) and colorectal cancer (HCT-116 and SW-480) cells. MTT cell viability assay was used to determine cytotoxic activity, and NBT test was used for...
