Abstract:
This study was aimed to investigate the effects of ouabain at low concentrations on growth regulation in various leukemia cell lines and to determine the therapeutic potential of ouabain in leukemia. By using MTT, flow cytometry (FCM), the changes in cell growth and cell cycle of leukemia cell lines were observed after treating with ouabain at low concentrations (
