OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of Embelin on HL-60 cells by the impact of oxidative stress on DNA double-strain breaks (DSBs).
METHODS
HL-60 cells were treated with Embelin in different concentration (3, 10, 30, 100, and 300 μg/ml) for 24 h, and inhibitory effects was examined by CCK-8 assay.
The naturally occurring anthelmintics, Embelia ribes (Enkoko) and Hagenia abyssinica (Kosso), have been reported to possibly cause optic atrophy among the Ethiopian population. In this study we found retinal pathology and defects in visual behavior in chicks treated with Enkoko, Kosso, or embelin, a
