Potency Based on this results, HIF is potential to be developed as co-chemotherapeutic agent for breast cancer by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.
Cell line/ mice model T47D
Additional information  Based on the results, we concluded that combination of n-HIF of F. septica leaves and doxorubicin synergically increases the cytotoxic effect of doxorubicin through apoptosis (cell death induction), increase of cleaved-PARP expression and cell cycle arrest.
