Fig. 6From: Molecular mechanism of anti-cancer activity of phycocyanin in triple-negative breast cancer cellsPhycocyanin suppressed COX-2 expression and PGE2 production. MDA-MB-231 cells were treated with phycocyanin at indicated concentrations for 24 h and (a) COX-2 protein and mRNA levels were analyzed by Western blotting and qPCR respectively. b PGE2 levels in arachidonic acid stimulated and phycocyanin treated MDA-MB-231 cells as analyzed by ELISA.
