Figure 4From: Synergic effect of Eicosapentaenoic acid and Lovastatin on gene expression of HMGCoA reductase and LDL receptor in cultured HepG2 cellsEffect of increasing EPA and Lovastatin concentrations on the conversion of MTT-tetrazolium salt in HepG2 cells and the combined effect of EPA and Lovastatin on the conversion of MTT-tetrazolium salt in HepG2 cells. Panel a: Effect of increasing EPA and Lovastatin concentrations on the conversion of MTT-tetrazolium salt in HepG2 cells. A significant anti-proliferative action was observed starting at 25 μM for both compounds used separately (*P < 0.05 Dunnett's multiple comparison test). Panel b: combined effect of EPA and Lovastatin on the conversion of MTT-tetrazolium salt in HepG2 cells (*P < 0.05 Dunnett's multiple comparison test).Back to article page
