Homoeopathic Viscum album (10-3) is More Cytotoxic to in vitro Culture of Human Breast Cancer Cell Line than to Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells

BACKGROUND Adenocarcinomas can be of several types, and MCF-7 is an adenocarcinoma human breast cell line useful as preclinical model to screen therapeutic agents such ultra-diluted Viscum album, European plant whose extract commonly used in cancer therapy. AIMS mesenchymal stem cells were evaluate the vitro cytotoxicity homoeopathic album 1x10-3 (VAD3). METHODS cultured for 24 hours controlled environment (37.5oC 5% CO2) 96-well plates. After this time, VAD3 was added culture medium concentrations varying from 10 100 ?L/mL MTT assay (evaluation viability cells). A control group maintained with only. 48 hours, procedures analysis performed. RESULTS showed that 42 62 able reduce 50% cells, respectively, which means half dead after contact VAD3. CONCLUSION presented higher cytotoxic action on than cells. This medicine extensively against cancer, use form it brings new possibilities no or fewer adverse effects would present.
