Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis of gastric cancer cells through the phosphatase and tensin homolog /Akt/ cyclooxygenase-2 signaling pathway

Figure 5 Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid inhibits the monolayer wound healing of gastric cancer cells. A and B: Phase micrographs of BGC823 and SGC7901 cells at various times after monolayer wounding (original magnification, × 100); C and D: Quantification of cell migration using monolayer wound-healing assay. The gastric cancer cells were treated without (control) or with 20 µM acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid. Each data point represents the mean ± SD from three independent experiments. ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01 vs control (0 µM). AKBA: Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid.
