Dihydromyricetin inhibits migration and invasion of hepatoma cells through regulation of MMP-9 expression

Figure 1 Chemical structure of dihydromyricetin and cell viability after dihydromyricetin treatment. A: The chemical structure of dihydromyricetin (DHM); B, C: The effects of DHM treatment on cell viability of SK-Hep-1 (B) and MHCC97L (C) cells were tested by measuring cell proliferation. After the cells were treated with DHM in a concentration range from 0 to 100 μmol/L for 24 h, MTT assay was used to determine cell proliferation. The data showed DHM treatment at the indicated concentrations (0-100 μmol/L) did not apparently affect cell proliferation (n = 6, Student’s t test).
