Fig. 2. Effects of Chios gum mastic (CGM) on the cell cycle progression of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs).
Cells were treated with 0, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, and 50 μM CGM for 48 h. (A) After staining the cells with propidium iodide, the cell cycle was analyzed using FACS. (B) The percentage ratios of G1 (green symbols), S (blue symbols), and G2 (purple symbols) of the histogram shown in A are shown as line category graphs. (C) The protein expression of cell cycle-related factors (Cyclin A, Cyclin E, and CDK2) was confirmed through Western blot analysis. β-actin was used as a loading control.
