Notably, at the treatment dose of 500 flg mL -1, the proliferative effect
of emblica extract was only slightly increased compared to that of 250 flg mL-1
To confirm the proliferative effect of emblica extract on DP cells, DP cell numbers were counted
after cultivation in emblica extract (100 flg mL -I)-containing medium at various times. Consistent
with the MTT assay, the number of DP cells markedly increased in the emblica-treated group over
a non-treated control (Fig. Ib).
