Activity of QiBaoMeiRan formula extract (QBMRE) on proliferation of MCF-7 cells.

ICI refers to the estrogen antagonist ICI182, 780 and E2 to 17β-estradiol. Cell proliferation was carried out as described in the Materials and Methods. Results are expressed relative to the growth of cells treated with 1% dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). Data are the mean ± standard deviation of quadruplicate analyses, expressed relative to that of treatment with 0.1% DMSO. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 compared to DMSO; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, compared to QBMRE or 0.01 μM E2.
