If the herbal extracts had inconclusive IC50 values in the three cell lines subsequent experiments were conducted using 100 μg/mL. The results showed that most of the combinations were antagonistic but, some combinations had synergistic or enhancement effects(1:3 for cisplatin with grape seed or green tea and tamoxifen with grapeseed or green tea, and 3:1 for cisplatin with green tea as well as for tamoxifen with fermented rooibos or green rooibos, and all the 1:1 combinations of 5- fluorouracil with all herbal extracts) with a combination index (CI) < 1. Grape seed and green tea were found to induce apoptosis in the three cell lines. Assays that were conducted to detect apoptosis induction showed positive staining for phosphatidylserine (PS), activated caspase 3, and reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial membrane depolarization. Analysis of the cell cycle showed two things; 1) that grape seed and green tea were apoptotic in HeLa and MCF7 cells only, and 2) the extracts of green tea and green rooibos, and the combinations of grape seed with all drug compounds arrested the cell in more than one phase of the cell cycle. The combinations of grapeseed and green tea potentially induced apoptosis in various manners but those with both rooibos extracts were unclear in all the cell lines. The results for combinations with grapeseed and green tea are promising and provide a basis for further research as combinations of chemotherapeutic drugs and herbal extracts may be effective therapeutic strategies.]]> Fri 14 Jun 2024 11:23:15 SAST ]]> An Investigation into the challenges of translating mathematical terminologies into Xitsonga http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73382 Fri 14 Jun 2024 09:29:47 SAST ]]> Tradition and change in the Imfene dance of the amaMpondo in the Ntabankulu district of the Eastern Cape province http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73105 Fri 07 Jun 2024 20:07:59 SAST ]]> Short Composition Portfolio http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73104 Fri 07 Jun 2024 20:00:15 SAST ]]> Effects of household debt on economic growth in South Africa http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73103 Fri 07 Jun 2024 19:45:57 SAST ]]> The relationship between leadership and employee engagement in an automotive original equipment manufacturer in South Africa http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73102 Fri 07 Jun 2024 19:26:04 SAST ]]> The impact of influencer characteristics on parasocial relationships and purchase intentions http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73100 Fri 07 Jun 2024 19:18:49 SAST ]]> Yield curve and business cycle dynamics in South Africa: new evidence from a Markov switching model http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73101 Fri 07 Jun 2024 19:18:30 SAST ]]> The influence of strategic leadership on the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises as mediated by strategy implementation http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73099 Fri 07 Jun 2024 18:57:58 SAST ]]> Capital mobility and economic growth in South Africa http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73098 Fri 07 Jun 2024 18:49:59 SAST ]]> The relationship between Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) and Corporate Financial Performance (CFP) http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73097 Fri 07 Jun 2024 18:42:51 SAST ]]> Improving the first-generation students’ alumni awareness at Sol Plaatje University http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73096 Fri 07 Jun 2024 18:22:50 SAST ]]> Evaluating perceptions of co-management on small-scale fisheries in the Wild Coast of South Africa http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73095 Fri 07 Jun 2024 18:15:00 SAST ]]> Factors that influence the adoption and implementation of sustainable procurement: a case of a South African public university http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73094 Fri 07 Jun 2024 17:40:41 SAST ]]> The private collection: aura, the cult of celebrity and, the construct of value in saleable works of art http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73086 Fri 07 Jun 2024 16:37:21 SAST ]]> An exploratory study of leadership and organisational change through the lens of organisational behaviour: a secondary school in Makhanda http://vital.seals.ac.za:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:73088 Fri 07 Jun 2024 16:37:09 SAST ]]>
