Potency Interestingly, cell culture and root extracts with high bryonolic acid contents resulted in significantly higher percent cell viabilities than those observed under control (1% v/v DMSO) treatment in Saos-2 and MCF-7 cells.
Cell line/ mice model SKBR-3, MCF-7, T47D, MDA-MB-435, A549, SK-LU1, Caco-2
Additional information  Bryonolic acid (1) inhibited MDA-MB435 somewhat better than the other tested human cancer cell lines.
