Effect of aqueous extract of A. fragrantissima (50 µg/mL), (A), and synthesized AgNPs (15 µg/mL). (B) on MCF-7 and HepG2 cell lines. Synthesized AgNPs treated MCF-7 and HepG2 cells showed an increased percentage of the apoptotic population (caspase-3, 8, 9, and Bax) after 24 h incubation. The results are represented as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments, (* = P < 0.05 compared to non-treated cells (control)).
