Polyphenols from brown alga, Padina boergesenii (Allendar & Kraft) decelerates renal cancer growth involving cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis in renal carcinoma cells

In our previous work, we assessed the ameliorative effect of crude extract from Padina boergesenii . In this report, we have extended these study by fractionating the methanol extract with methanol:ethylacetate (1:3,v/v) (MME‐F) and assessed the cytotoxic effect of MME‐F fraction in human renal carcinoma cell lines (A498 and ACHN). The fraction had time‐and dose‐dependent inhibition of cancer cell proliferation, migration with deceleration of...
